Social Media is a Must!

Hello Again...

Welcome to the revamped version of my blog - Creating your Social Media Presence!!!
Let me tell YOUR story thru photographs.  Yes, that's what I said - tell YOUR story.

Take a look at these questions and see if you would answer Yes...I need help, to any of them:

     1.  Do you struggle with not having enough time to post to your social media sites?
     2.  Do you want to take your ideas to the next level and really build up your prospects and
          potential customer base?
     3.  Do you wish you had help creating excitement and ideas for your customers?
     4.  Are you feeling pressured and stressful at the thought of where to begin or what to post?
 
These are just a couple questions to get you to start thinking about what you need vs. where you are.  I tell your story thru photographs, and there is no one out there right now that will do this for you...but me.  We take the stress and worry out of your days, your weeks, even months.  This frees up your valuable time to do what you love to do...run your business.

If you are at a place where you are ready to take the next step - give me a call, or send me an email.

Feeling motivated today.  We took a drive over to a nearby Golf Course, Red Tail here in the Progress neighborhood.  Not a lot of people playing so I could take some shots for a client.  But these pine cones caught my attention.

Then I discovered there was an Eagle's nest up in the trees.  We looked and looked but could not find the nest...but...the parents were freely giving us a show as we watched them dance in the sky swooping and soaring ever higher and higher till out of sight they flew.

As always, let me know what you think...and any of the shots I post here are for sale.
Just ask me!

So I decided to take the afternoon off and treated my husband to the Roadster Show in Portland on Friday.  What a great time we had looking at all the different and  uniquely designed automobiles, motorcycles and trucks.  We like to go on a Friday when if first opens.  That way the crowds are smaller and the ability to take some good quality shots without all the people is much better.

Here are just a few that I thought were good enough to post here.  I don't like to make each shot a direct head on, so the more creative I can get, the better I like it. 

Feel free to comment, or just let me know you stopped by to take a look.

Mardi Gras Cupcakes in the Making...

My day started with a drive out to Aloha to visit a friend.  It proved to be such a fun day with my pal Pamela Gillilan - owner of Pamela's Cakes & Cupcakes.

She was baking cupcakes for a wonderful Mardi Gras Party, and I was along for the ride, camera in hand.  The colors of an event that happens only once a year, that thousands celebrate with great excitement.

Such an amazing process to go from beginning to end with three dozen cupcakes. It intrigues me to see what passions abound, and to be able to capture it to share with others.

Here are a few of my favorites.....

Sunshine makes me happy :)

Nothing like a little sunshine to brighten up your mood!  The gray days are hard to get motivated because the dreariness with continuous blacks and browns keep me indoors creating and framing.  Being a nature photographer means you NEED to get outdoors or you go a little bit craazy.

Let's take a look at some of the goodness I found today.....

So much to look at...so happy to see that Spring is on it's way.  What will the next venture into the world bring to light...

A Mixture of Visions

Oh my how the time flies by!
I cannot believe I have not written anything here for the past 6 months.  Then again, it has been quite a ride for the past six months!!!

Some medical issues that should have been short - ended up taking over the last half of the year.  What I have gotten out of it all, is that life is an amazing journey that should not be taken for granted.  Love those near and dear to you...but don't forget the ones that are not currently in sight.  Friends, family, neighbors, doctors, teachers, pastors, grocery clerks, waiters, bankers, garbage collectors, they all matter.  When you think you have no one...that is when your true friends and family show up.  At all hours of the night, to make a meal or lend a hand.  "That's what friends are for" has developed an entirely new meaning for me today.  At the brink of death, frustrated and confused, they all rallied around me and pulled me through.  This year will not be forgotten - nor life taken lightly ever again.  I love you all....more than you know....thank you for showing me I matter!

As another month comes to a close...let's take a look at what I have uncovered. God's beauty is amazing and wonderful, making the mind ponder the intricate patterns and timeless efforts of His work. How did He think of such things? How does this happen? The overall picture is beautiful, as the inner workings are astounding. Browse thru...comment on what you like - or suggest something for my next venture.



Either way, I am so happy you stopped by, and I hope to hear from you soon. All photographs are available for purchase. Please do not copy or use without permission. It's the photographers code and the right thing to do. Thank you.....

Here are a few of my favorite things today.....
