More beautiful days? Yes, please!

Yesterday was so nice! Spent the day off at Jer & Christina's house, playing out on the deck with the kids most of the afternoon. 'Papa' (Christina's grandad and all around good guy) cooked Italian Chicken on the grill (making the entire neighborhood smell WONDERFUL) while Christina whipped up some nice summery side dishes inside. After enjoying the meal, Katie and Cam wanted to play outside, so we went out front where they rode their bike and scooter until it was time to go in for bed. Hugs and kisses and sweet goodnights all around, and I think I smiled all the way home. Love my grandkids!!

Tre's One!

Tre's One!
happy birthday, little man!

A First Birthday is a big deal!

I had the pleasure of photographing a first birthday party recently, and it was great fun watching little Tre have fun with his little friends, and his new toys. The mommies (and grandmas!) had fun catching up with each other, and the little ones enjoyed running around and playing. Of course, the tasty snacks and birthday cake contributed to everyone's good time, as well!
The party was held at the Community Room of Buehler's in Wadsworth, and what a nice facility for small gatherings. The use of the room is free, with the stipulation that any foods served must be purchased from Buehler's. Not a problem, since they have great fresh foods, a full-service deli and bakery, and just about anything else you could wish for!

Class was a rousing success!

Class was great fun~ we had nine people signed up, and everyone participated with good questions, and showed real interest in the presentation. Everyone received a printout of the details from the powerpoint, to help with retaining the information given (there was a good bit!) We also had a surprise 'quiz' at the end, where folks could earn a little prize for answering my questions correctly. And, of course, the answers had been part of the class material! Everyone had a good time, a few people said they felt their time was well spent. And several people asked if there will be more classes, perhaps on specific camera models, or specific types of photography.
My answer? "I surely hope so!"

Great fun!

New Digital 101 Class tonight at Cord Camera!

This is the first of many, we hope! Classes will be set up as there is demand. This first class has nine people signed up, and I'm really looking forward to helping people learn more about their cameras. The whole idea is to get better pictures, so that's the direction we're going. Photography has brought me so much joy, and it's a hobby that anyone can have fun with. I was ten years old when I got started with it... my first camera purchase was a Polaroid Big Swinger... now THAT'S dating myself, haha!

If you missed this class, and are interested in signing up for the next one, give us a call at Cord, at 330.241.6146

Cord is located inside of Buehler's Grocery, on Rte.18 at River Styx Rd. Stop in sometime, even if it's just to say 'Hello!' Visitors are ALWAYS welcome... :-)

Winter Senior Portrait sessions can be FUN!


Raquel is a lovely young woman who, as a January graduate, had her Senior photo session in the winter. While it was a chilly day, it was fun, and different, and TOTALLY Raquel! Since her beau was there offering assistance, we included him in some of the photographs, too, for a sweet combination! Thanks, you two (and Mom and Dad) for a fun afternoon of shooting!

Have to show off the grandkids just a little!

Such a sweet group of little ones...

Personal Family photos, showing off my six beautiful grandbabies!

First wedding of the season ~ Beth and Ed

On May 14, we had the pleasure of photographing the wedding of
beautiful bride Beth and her handsome groom Ed.

This Spring has been very VERY wet, but we were blessed with good weather long enough to get a few photos at the Medina Gazebo before heading over to the reception at Williams on the Lake. And, once we were inside, it really didn't matter that it was pouring outside. What a fun group!

Party time!

Great birthday party today for one of our youngest grandchildren... Carson enjoyed the visitors, and definitely enjoyed his new toys.  He was not too sure about the birthday cake, though!  Big brother Cameron helped him unwrap and 'test' his new toys, what a great helper, haha!
