Hallie Jade Humphries

Hallie was born last Friday and now I am an Aunt to 5 little ones...Cade, Sydney, Jace, Addison, and Hallie. My sister had her first girl and third child and she was 8 lbs 11 oz. I am going home in July and can't wait to see her and hold her.....and also do my first newborn shoot! Can't wait :)

Summer = Busy

We have been so busy lately I haven't had time to pick up my camera as much as I would like. I can't believe it is almost July! However here are a few random shots I've taken over the last couple of weeks for practice.

Leap of Faith

As you all know I recently have taken a few steps toward my dream of being a photographer. It was really out of my comfort zone to just get out there and get started, but I finally took the leap and it is starting to pay off. I signed up for a class, which led to another class. I started a blog and offered free sessions to all of my friends and family, which turned into about 10 unofficial bookings. And today I had the greatest day....a professional photographer here in OKC/Edmond area (http://www.bradmyersphotography.com/) has agreed to let me sort of intern with him. We are currently working out the details and he is going to show me the ropes and let me tag along for different photo shoots and weddings! For starters I will be holding the flash and fetching him coffee...haha but then he said that I can jump behind the camera whenever I'm ready. I am just so excited and can't wait....I can't believe it took me this long to get off the bench and get in the game. Anyway, hopefully soon I will be blogging about all of the great things I learned and can show you how my photography has grown! So a little tid bit of advice for all of you....JUST GO FOR IT!!

Sunday Bicycle Ride

So Justin and I have been really really busy lately, but we've managed to find time for our relaxing weekly bicycle ride around Lake Hefner. Last Sunday, I took my camera and made Justin stop early so that I could snap some pictures of the gorgeous sunset. Anyway, I just had to share! So speaking of our bicycle ride, Justin and I have started our own Biggest Loser Contest. We each have goal weights and weigh in every Monday. It has been 2 weeks and we have both lost some weight...of course I am winning, but I have to give credit to my CHK Boot Camp I just finished today! :) Our final weigh-in is July 24th. We have a wedding that we are going to on the 25th to debut our new and improved bodies. Hopefully in about 7 weeks I will blog a before and after picture for both of us! Stay tuned.....
