fish eyes are not for eating

Originally posted at My Latest Distraction (entertainment blog) by me, but I thought it might be something nice to share with my photography audience as well!

One of my many distractions over the years has been photography. Â And not just in a professional manner, but before that. Â I liked to take pictures. Â Didn’t matter what the camera was, or how the image actually turned out, I liked to take pictures. Â A few years ago I purchased my first Digital SLR camera. Â The most exciting thing to me about this was the idea of being

holidays! deadlines, days off, & discounts! oh my!

new site coming soon!

I have been working hard on rebuilding my website and wanted to share a sneak peak of the results! I am really excited about the album layout slideshow made possible by the incredible Show It! They are also the incredible company that I have to thank for my album design order form. While I had to build the form myself, Show It takes care of all the hard stuff form me (coding)!

It inspired an initial post about my excitement, and then a follow-up post with one of my business goals. I realize it has been a while since these posts, so I decided I would revisit them.

Since those posts, I feel like I have accomplished quite a bit. I have helped others grow their

networking & the knot

Last night was the Philadelphia networking party for The Knot. It caused me to fall a minute behind on blogging, but was totally worth it. This year’s theme was Carnival and it super fun. Cotton candy spun around prime rib satays, the most delicious mini burger ever, pretzel knots (get it? knots…), mini funnel cakes with parmesean…mmmm mmmm good! I wish I had taken pictures, but between business cards, glasses, plates, etc, I couldn’t handle carrying one more thing I do however want to say thank you to everyone who put together the great event! It is always great
