her first birthday
It's been FAR too long since my last blog post! My apologies....

I've been biiiiizy, busy lately with lots of graphic design work and photography events. The last couple weeks have been spent on some in-depth photography studying/practicing. I'm reading books and watching training videos like it's my job (well, I suppose that's partly true) and testing techniques to get myself ready for this summer's schedule of photography. I'm SO excited & motivated to bump it up a level!
There have been a couple days of rest though, thankfully. A couple weeks ago, Chad and I went to a Memorial Day party at our friends' house. They were also celebrating the 1st birthday of their [ADORABLE] daughter, Liesl. The weather was perfect—one of our first hot days!
I didn't end up getting my camera out until later in the party, but I really wanted to share these cute pictures of Liesl as she was gingerly traveling around the driveway in this little, white summer dress. I love the way the sunlight is kissing the side of her and casting shadows on the pavement.
