After an incredible couple of days......I am finally on my way home!!

It feels like I have been gone for so long. I have so much catching up to do and LOTS to post. I cannot wait to show you some of the cool places we went....and some of the wonderful people I got to meet!!

It seems like forever since I have posted so as I sit here in an airport restaurant, I feel the urge to share the first of my weekend photos!! As you can see, this model was just STUNNING and was very easy to capture.......she was absolutely gorgeous and a joy to work with.

A special thank you to Debbie for such a wonderful weekend......it was truly amazing!!

Happy Monday.....catch up with you all soon.....this is the first I have been online since Thursday:)

Tonya said...

Hey there, Friend! Man, it's been WAY TOO LONG since I've been here and left a message for you. I kind of went into hiding through the holidays (that's when we were losing our son just 2 years ago). After we made it through Christmas, then Jan. 2... well, I guess it was just hard to get back into the habit of blogging. (I've MISSED you guys!)

Now.. in catching up with you.. YOU have an incredible gift in photography! WOW! (Did you take lessons or does it just come natural?) I have photoshop and a pretty nice camera myself, but I've just been too lazy to read up. (That's pretty sad, huh?)

Oh, and your kitchen.. WOW again! I don't blame you for spending a lot of your time there. (It's FABULOUS!)

Okay.. I won't keep you.. I just wanted to say "hello" and tell you what an AMAZING job you're doing with your photos. (Now if I can only get off my lazy sittin spot and go learn something about it myself) O;-)

Oh my gosh that is a great photo you took Lisa!
I have always loved your blog photos so I am excited to see how they change now that you've taken this class.

Kristin said...

Your photography..., beautiful. It was so great to meet you and see you as you would catch the moment behind the camera and just be in your company. You have a true eye for photography and I am excited to follow your blog that already holds some amazing photography before you ever got a hold of this class. To hear you talk of your kids and now seeing them is just a treat. Incredibly handsome family. I pray for your journey going forward and that your long road to China will become soon very short.

Bridget said...
