Sarah W.

Meet Sarah! 

Sarah is a fellow photo buff! 
Sarah, the lucky girl, is graduating in a few days! 
Graduation is a big deal, and you know me - if there's a big deal, there's got to be pics! 
We met up for a bit today to swap photos and stories and for a really nice chat! 
And, I got to meet her sweet puppy Nicky!

We had a great time shooting at this awesome wall, which is my "new/old" favorite location...

Until I look down and see 
(gasp and shivers down my spine) 

a snake ... 

Thus the "new/old" favorite location! 
It wriggled right out from under my foot 
(ewwww, so many freaked out feelings)
which made me shriek and run off! 
Sarah thought it was quite funny,
but it took me 10 or so minutes to calm down 
(after we left the area, of course).

For those of you who aren't deathly afraid of the little reptiles, 
please take advantage of this awesome location for me, 
cuz it will be winter time before I attempt to take any more photos there!

Keep Smiling,
Annie

Baby Animal Days is ALWAYS a good time!
The American West Heritage Center is a wonderful addition
to our community, and they are always hosting wonderful events!

As you will see, it was a beautiful, chilly spring day
and we had a great time with the family!

Carter Family


Ahh, how I love this sweet family!
I tend to be completely biased when my nephews
and nieces are the subject of my photo shoot - if you haven't noticed!

We spent a little time at the beautiful Garff Wayside Gardens
and made these fun pictures!!

Expecting Jack

I took these pictures of my gorgeous sister in law the night before my sweet nephew was born!
She was EXHAUSTED but such a WONDERFUL sport
as she let me figure out lighting and poses!!
