Congratulations!!! I am so jealous. I love photography but I'm not that good.

Those pictures are great. Want to come to Seattle to shoot my wedding next year?

I'm so happy for you!

Thanks everyone! I'm loving every minute of my new job and GET THIS.......I can bring Sully now! Pretty much every day, if I want!

HOW COOL IS THAT?! I took him with me on Monday because I only worked a 1/2 day....and the other photographer (the headliner) fell in love with him and told me I could bring him every day if I wanted!

Actually, his words were that "a small, cute, well-behaved dog would be a nice touch to our studio". HAHA! I was like, hmm! He noticed that every client that came in that day that I brought Sully went nuts over him and he started to think about how Sully could affect our business.

I'm cracking up here, truly beside myself that this job could have gotten ANY better...and it did!

Here are some of my favorite pictures that I took at a wedding on St. Patrick's Day at one of our city's most beautiful working plantations, Middleton Place. The weather couldn't have been more perfect!

The spot in the gardens that they chose for the wedding was gorgeous...though it was nothing close to ideal photography-wise.

Here are three more....

and the last one of course wasn't taken by me.... The adorable little flower girl? Well, she really took to me! At the "last dance" of the evening, she grabbed my hand and dragged me to the dance floor (haha!) It was fun, and Nathan (the other photographer) snapped a cute picture of us dancing!

LOL, I think Sully needs to take home a paycheck too then, if he's going to be bringing in so much business and all!

Thorsmomma · 03-22-2006, 06:50 PM

I love looking at your pics! I was so excited to see more!! Wow, who would have thought that it could have gotten better...and now Sully can come! Goodness this is a dream job!!!

kewtee · 03-22-2006, 11:30 PM

Sully rocks - we always knew he would be something!

I wish I could take just one of my dogs to the clinic!

Wonderful Pictures Valerie!
It's great to live your Dream...
You'll appreciate this quote;

"The master in the art of living makes little distinction between his work and his play,
his labor and his leisure, his mind and his body,
his education and his recreation, his love and his religion.

He hardly knows which is which;
he simply pursues his vision of excellence in whatever he does,
leaving others to decide whether he is working or playing.
To him he is always doing both."

So happy for you! Kara
