Friday Photo Journal, June 26, 2015

Happy Friday all! This week I actually have a plethora of photos to share. The first set is from a trip to the Children's Museum. I decided that we had been stuck in the house (due to high heat and humidity) and bound by work, school, doctors appointments and the like for long enough. A fun day was long overdue! I took the kids out for lunch at Chick-Fil-A, then to the Children's Museum of Portsmouth, and we even stopped for Slurpees on the way home. We had a blast! It was so much fun to just play for a day. I loved every minute. 

Then, on Father's Day, our plan was to take Dad out for breakfast. But, our lazy Sunday morning made for a lunch date instead. We then saw that Nauticus, a local nautical and naval museum, was having a "Dads get in free" special and we went for it. Two museums in one weekend, plus frozen yogurt on top! It was like a family vacation for us, ha ha. This week we dug into our end of year testing, so it was a nice break before the final push. All of these images were taken with my iPhone so that I could focus on the fun and not worry about lugging a DSLR around. 

How was your week?

Thank you so much for stopping in! Have a wonderful weekend!

Friday Photo Journal, June 19, 2015

So last week was a total bomb. I completely forgot to post FPJ and I fully admit to being the worst blog host in the history of blog hosting. I shot a wedding last Thursday in 95 degree heat and high humidity and came home absolutely fried. I shot another wedding on Saturday in 95 degree heat and humidity and didn't even realize I had forgotten the blog post until Tuesday. Smh. I'm so sorry! Really I am. I should have prepared before hand but had weddings on the brain, along with getting galleries out the door, and I just dropped the ball. I apologize!

It took me a couple days to recover from last weekend and then I had two family sessions during the week, so I really didn't take many personal photos other than a few with my phone. Here's a peek at our extremely exciting week: (including the dentist, a visit from Mawmaw, summer walks, a lost dog found, both wedding locations, and sleepy kiddos)

Friday Photo Journal - June 5, 2015

Another week down - 2015 is surely flying by. When I wrote a check today and realized that we are in the 6th month of this year it boggled my mind. Half over already?! Hard to believe.

Last week was insanely busy for me with lots of shooting, including a wedding. This week I have a break from shooting - yahoo! But, still have tons of editing to do, of course. I did take this weekend off for my big girl's birthday, and to decompress before two more weddings next week. So, I actually got this week's FPJ up early! How 'bout that?!

Like most of the east coast, we have had lots of rain this week - for days. So, when the clouds broke yesterday for a bit, I took my little (or not so little anymore) outside to play. These images are far from perfect, but I adore them. They make my heart so full. Shooting from the heart beats technical precision any day in my book. ;)
