2008 is completely closed
Ladies and Gentlemen, 2008 is completely closed out for bookings. Weddings, families, seniors, births, you name it, I'm booked.
God has blessed me so greatly, with a job I love and clients who return. It breaks my heart that there are many of you I won't have the opportunity to shoot this year.I have left a limited amount of spots available for engagement sessions for 2009 brides that I book throughout the year. I will also take a few names and put them on a waiting list, in case those engagement spots don't fill up.
Please feel free to contact me for referrals, as I have a lot of friends in town who do very similar work within the same price range. I would love to pass their name along to you.
Like any of us, with any job, there are days I am really proud of my work, and days I think I stink and should quit. I am thankful every single day for all of my awesome clients who allow me to do this for a living and I am humbled that many of you have booked me so far in advance.

HERE THEY ARE!
I did a huge B-pic marathon a couple weekends ago with 8 girls! Here is a peek at them! Not only were the girls awesome, but I also had a dynamite style team to help me out! I want to thank Donna Harris and Amy Dennis for hair and make-up. They can both be hired through METRO if any photographers need them for a shoot, or brides need them for their wedding day they did and awesome job! I also want to thank my assistants that day Dorinda and Lisa!

God speed little man....I ask for your prayers today, as I have spent the last week watching my friends bury their 4 month old baby boy. I ask for your prayers of comfort for his amazing family.
Where were you last Tuesday? I was stomping around my kitchen crabby, I was crabby because I was out of Diet Pepsi and I had to make it the whole day with 2 crazy kids without it....then my mom called to tell me the news.
Life is short, it is precious and it can change in an instant. Let's see if you can make it one day without complaining, in honor of his sweet life and his parents' grief. Because no matter what your problems are, they cannot compare.
On average, this blog gets between 100-150 hits per day. If you would like to show some support to this family you can make a donation to the scholarship fund that has been set in his name. Every little bit helps.
Checks can be made out to the "Carson Niepert Scholarship Fund" and sent to :
GC Steel Community Credit Union
3970 Maryville Road
Granite City IL 62040
So today, when you want to complain about something that means so little, just take a moment, a deep breath, and let this little boy's life touch yours. And when you lay your head on your pillow tonight to sleep with your family healthy and safe please say a prayer for his.
An excerpt from the song played at his funeral:
God speed little man...
Sweet dreams little man...
Oh my love...will fly to you each night on angels wings...
