Much Ado About Nothing

In addition to teaching 5th grade and taking pictures, for the next two weeks I am somewhat of an "actress". And I use the term quite loosely. The faculty of my school is putting on a production of Shakespeare's Much Ado About Nothing - flapper/gangster style. We went over to McGee's Irish Pub in Anderson (side note: this is the restaurant where Jason and I had our rehearsal dinner two years ago...excellent restaurant...go there) so I could shoot our promotional pictures. We had a blast. There's nothing like seeing the headmaster play the gangster bad guy, or having 8 guns pointed at you (no, they weren't loaded, but still.) Anything for a good shot, right?

Come check out the play - January 22 & 23 @ 7pm, and Saturday the 24 @ 4pm 

New Covenant School...I promise it will be worth your $5.

Glamour Girl :)

This is Miranda. Isn't she GORGEOUS!??! Miranda is my little brother's girlfriend, but, more than that, she is a precious friend. She needed some shots for something, and I, of course, was more than willing to oblige. It was obviously impossible to take a bad picture of her, so I had a really hard time deciding which ones not to post. SO, I posted a ton of them. Enjoy!

Sweet Little Maggie

I got to spend a few hours with a few kids that are about as close to my own as I can imagine at this point, never having had my own. :) I've been to the beach with these kids, babysat them, pretty much invaded their house the entire time I was at Clemson. Now that there's a new member of the family, I have to get to know her too. Maggie is just precious. I just took these while I was keeping the kids one afternoon. Isn't she beautiful?!?

All that pink. 

Sisters. Too precious.

Ok...you caught me. I didn't take this one. :) This one is Copyright 2009 Miss Mary Campbell Huss...

It's all monogrammed...every thing she owns. 

Boys, Boys, Boys!

The Merlo boys are three of the most fun boys. They were GREAT for our shoot. High-energy, happy, and always willing to jump up on a wall for a fun shot. Imagine that. :) Little brother Derrick was even up for trying to get a good picture.  I LOVE the one of him winking. So cute. 

Hope you enjoy looking at these as much as I enjoyed taking them!

The Evans Family

The Evans family is a precious family that I have come to know and love through New Covenant School. Elizabeth, the mother of these 4 beautiful kids, helped me survive my first year of teaching. I had the privilege of having her in my classroom three mornings a week. She is one of those people who is always smiling! 

Thanks for letting me photograph your children!!
