Hummingbirds

My parents always put up hummingbird feeders and it seems like there are a dozen more of these tiny birds that come around each year. They are really fun to watch, and it's so weird how these pretty little glistening birds are just down right pesky and feisty to each other! Then I googled hummingbird (how I get all my answers...) and here is a little fun fact for you from Wikipedia : "They consume more than their own weight in nectar each day, and to do so they must visit hundreds of flowers daily. Hummingbirds are continuously hours away from starving to death, and are able to store just enough energy to survive overnight." Fun fact for the day and now I know why they are so feisty over the feeders....

I think there are about 40 of these birds flying around their yard right now over 4 feeders. The more the merrier!

Here are some pictures I took of them and you can also click on any image to see a larger view.






I told you they are mean! He's jabbing the other bird in the face!

Monogram Madness Shoe Shoot

My bestest and wonderful friend Lacie has a monogramming and children's clothing store that she runs and she's also got the cutest daughter ever Bella... which makes Bella is the perfect model right? So Lacie has these children's shoes that are just adorable and needed some website worthy photos of them for her site and FB page. We took Bella and let her have every girl's dream (ok she's already got every girls dream at the age of 2... she's got more shoes than I ever thought of having!!!) and let her play in all the shoes, just tons and tons of shoes! You can tell by the look on her face that Bella is gonna be a girlie girl, she loved it!

You can check out Lacie's online store, Monogram Madness here: www.monogrammadness.net
And check out Bella's fun with the shoes below... :)  You can also click on any image to see a larger view.


 







And this last one is just what Lacie had on the machine that day, thought it was too cute to not add!

Updates!

Working on updating my website! There's a new layout and new images are being added in the portfolio gallery! I finally figured out how I can use my Interior Design (yep... I'm a designer!) degree and photography passion and turn it into one thing by taking photos for designer's portfolios and real estate = happy girl :)

Hope to get some new blog posts on here too, It's been looking neglected!
