Celebrating Life With Her Favorite People

Have you ever thought about what it would be like to have a severe, rare disease?  The only cure is an organ transplant.

Even then, there are complications.  It isn't perfect.  Every day is a gift from God.  Every moment spent with a beloved family member or friend is cherished.  Within each of these is a great miracle.

The miracle is love.  The celebration of life can be any moment that you choose to do so.  You make memories with those whom you cherish.  Every details of the moment is caught up in your memory:  the way the light plays on the leaves and the shadows below; the infectious giggles of your children; the tight cuddle from your spouse as you kiss him; the loving embrace from your mom whose job since the moment she gave birth to you was to keep you safe, happy, and loved.

The common denominator here is the miracle of love.  This beautiful woman has been given another chance by medical experts who were able to save her life.  This session was done to help her celebrate this miracle.

Please share this with all of your friends and family.  Life is so precious.  So is family and so is love.






One more thing.  I know that this is a hard thing to think about, but it's so important to remember and to talk about with loved ones.  Please consider organ donation.  It's very easy to do.  Life is not ever predictable.  Organ and tissue donation is one of the most important legacies a human being can leave behind.  Please visit http://donatelife.net/for more information.

Canned Food Drive and Fall Costume EVENT

The last time you donated to the local food bank, you got a warm fuzzy  feeling and your pantry was reorganized.

This October, you can donate to the local food bank THROUGH Honey Bee Photography, get a warm fuzzy feeling, reorganize your pantry, AND get a mini session of your child(ren) in their costumes with a photograph and a REALLY great deal on purchasing more.

WHAAAAAAAAAAAT?

You read that correctly.  I have a goal to donate, through HBP, 500 containers of non-perishable food items to the local food bank here in Bowie on November 1, 2014.  I need your help.

The set will be at my home studio, and will include a very festive
arrangement of pumpkins, fall foliage and flowers, and seating. (no hay this year, I learned my lesson LOL)

1.  Schedule your session in advance for a weekday/evening appointment.

2.  Collect 10 pieces of non-perishable containers, like canned
veggies and fruits, jams and peanut butter, tuna and chicken, soups 
boxed mashed potatoes.  There are so many types of food to donate.

3.  Help your child find an awesome Halloween or Fall Festival costume.  Remember, props, makeup and hair are highly recommended.

4. Bring your child in for his or her session, and view your images
from which to choose right after! Make your order right away and 
have your images back in time to make cards, scrapbook and share 
on social media! You will be so happy to help our community AND have a beautiful image of your child in costume. You can even purchase additional images for only $15 each!

5.  You can also do a group image of your children in costume as well. You’ll donate 5 cans, instead of 10, per child.  I’ll photograph 2 group images and one of each child, you’ll choose the image of your favorite group shot, and purchase additional images for only $15 each.

Ask for the details at 240-245-0416.




*Please note:  I do have pets in my home.  If you and your children have allergies, we can make arrangements for an outside photograph taken at an area close to my house.  I do vacuum thoroughly and have an air purifier running prior to sessions in my home studio.

Cute Kids' Contest | Grand Prize Winner Jayden

Jayden is a very cute, very busy little boy.  With his curly hair, his sweet smile or his big "O" face, and a crawl that is guaranteed to make you laugh your butt off, he will turn a sour day into the best day!  He really loves Batman, frosting, and his momma.  Enjoy!







Congratulations to Jayden and his family.  It was a pleasure getting to know you.

Wedding | Ken and Breanne

Weddings usually take at least 6 months to plan.  At least.

Ken and Breanne decided they wanted to get married as quickly as possible.

Like within 2 months.

Now, Jim and I got married and we had a week or so to plan it, but we did bare minimum LOL.  These two families were able to get all of these details and important loved ones to the area and it's amazing how everything came together.

Please enjoy the images as events unfolded before my lens.























Congratulations, you two.
Thanks for having us that day.
July 5th is a GREAT day to get married.
