maricar lianne — Sun, 21 Mar 2010 21:31:28 +0000

I’m currently making big plans on restructuring my pricing. You are going to be so blown away. I will be releasing the new pricing March 30th. Please comment or email me if you’d like to see what I have in store even before then.

Is that spring coming?

The weather is starting to warm up, the sun is out longer & the flowers are starting to bloom! I brought the girls out to a park this afternoon and the field was filled with yellow blooms. Here are a few that I took of the girls.

Oh and just to note, a great friend of mine, Andrea R. was able to resurrect my old blog posts from waaaaay back. So please excuse the mess if you are heading back to my earlier posts. There seems to be a \ or a / next to any apostrophe or quotation mark that was made. I’ll hopefully have some time in the future to fix all that up. Thank you Andrea. You are amazing.

I attended the Sandy Puc Family Tour last night and was once again pleasantly happy as I drove home. This is my third seminar. I attended the Bellies & Babies tour two years ago and the Tots to Teens tour last year. Every year, I leave with a wealth of information & inspiration. Last night was no exception. I left knowing what I’m doing. What I’m put here to do. What my role as a photographer is. It’s to capture memories. Freeze a moment in time. I need to remind my clients & friends that THIS IS IMPORTANT. You don’t purchase the paper the photo is on. You purchase the memory printed onto it. And I thank you. I thank you for allowing me into your lives. For allowing me to do what I love.

Thank you.
