Dear Friday,
Why do you always have to arrive so fast? How is it that another week has flown by? Please take your time getting here next week.
Drowning in laundry and jpgs,
jessica
(Seriously, I can't even believe how fast this week has flown. Luckily, I am not letting stress get the best of me, I am just taking it one day at a time....Looking forward to a marathon weekend of family sessions!!!! Can't wait!)

jennifer + duane | 9.26.09
Yes, I am SO late to post this and Yes, I am completely and utterly behind on well, mostly everything right now! :) The good news? It's the end of October, only 2 weddings left for the year and that means the holidays are coming up! Crazy, right?
Anyways, I don't want to outshadow Jen and Duane's beautiful, gorgeous, fabulous, sweet did I say beautiful wedding! Corinne from Sebesta Designs went over the top on all the florals and decor. I was in a flower lovers heaven! And, the bride and groom? Not too shabby either!!!!
Ceremony: MSU Alumni Chapel
Reception: University Club of MSU
Florals and Event Design: Sebesta Design
Makeup: All Tressed Up
Cake: A Piece 'O Cake
On to the eye candy!
The beautiful Jen!
I love this image for more than one reason but I love that I caught a real, true moment between Jen's mom and step-mom. It was so obvious that Jen had 2 sets of parents who adored her like crazy and I'm so happy to have this moment for her to see.
Jen's only request for the day was that I get a photo of Duane when he first sees her...I hope this is what she meant!
They had some of the best bubble action going on!
Duane!
The U Club looked fab!

procrastination
Oh, I've been the Queen of Procrastination the past couple days. I could win some awards when it comes to not getting any work done. I don't know if it's the weather (cold, gray, ick), the fact that my to-do list is quite unmanageable right now, or the fact that I'm just exhausted.
I hit this point every year where the wedding season is winding down but I am bombarded with album designs, family photos and holiday craziness that gets started right around Halloween. I'm trying to stay organized and keep it simple but I can slowly feel that stress and panic of "How will I ever get this all done?" creeping into my thoughts.
To keep myself motivated I put together a little board of things that are making me happy right now (besides my beautiful, active, smiling, adorable, active, loving, active children!)....
-Albums from Kolo
-The New Moon Soundtrack (Can't WAIT!!)
-New Fabric from Amy Butler
-I just want to have a picnic at that table (I've been slightly obsessed with flowers lately) image from Amy Osaba
-Feeling the need to re-organize my office space and refresh my whole house with paint.
I have so much to share here and can't wait! I have 2 great weddings and a whole bunch of family sessions!
So glad it's Thursday.....looking forward to Grey's tonight with the hubby. I'm thinking that I will not even have my laptop attached to myself tonight. Just me, the couch, Tim and the TV!

5 kids under 4...
Last week I photographed my dear friend's children and their cousins...this picture is totally cracking me up! (No worries, I did get 1 suitable for the grandparents.....)
I actually love this one because it's pretty darn realistic. :)
Happy Weekend!

Random Monday Thoughts
This makes me laugh everytime I look at it...
(Cake topper from Iris and John's beautiful fall wedding this past Saturday)
Since it's Monday and my mind is feeling a little fuzzy, I have random thoughts today.
-It's cold and cloudy here today and that makes me so sleepy. I have no time to be sleepy!
-I'm testing a recipe for homemade Apple Butter using my crockpot and my house smells amazing.
-I'm wishing I could go here but I know it's just not possible right now. Isn't her photography dreamy?
-Thinking that I need to get out all our winter gear to make sure it fits but really not motivated to think about snowy, cold mornings and how they really aren't that far off.
-I have 2 beautiful weddings and 3 fun family sessions to edit.
Happy Monday!

It's Holiday Photo Time!!!
(If you subscribe to my newsletter, you received this information today!)
Only 84 Days Until Christmas!
I know, you don't want to be reminded that there are only 84 days until Christmas! I don't want to remind myself but the fact is, it will be here before you know it!!!!!!
Book your photo session NOW!
This fall I am offering 2 different ways to get those photos for all your holiday gift-giving and card- sending! (Come on, you know your mother-in-law won't leave you alone until you give her an updated picture of the kids!)
First option? The usual session at the location of your choice! Cost=$100 + the price of prints or digital files.
Second option and new this year: Mini-sessions! Are you trying to save a little cash this year but still want some new, cute shots of the family? I am excited to announce that I have a solution for you. I have picked 2 dates and 2 locations for some sessions! Basically, you show up to me and we have a mini-session to get some updated images of your adorable family. On October 24, I will be at the Woldumar Nature Center from 10-12ish. On November 7, I will be in Old Town Lansing from 10-1ish. Please email me for specific times! The cost is only $125 and that includes your 20-25 minute session AND a cd with digital files of the images from your session in both color and black and white. This gives you the ultimate freedom to do what you want! Personally, I am taking some updated photos of my kids and making photo calendars for the grandparents!
