With the help of my sister (50 Foot Design), I have updated my blog design and hosting. The new blog is more user friendly and has slide shows and ENORMOUS pictures. No more pulling out your magnify glass to see your sneak peak. So the only down fall to this blog? If you had subscribed to my blog update via email, you will have to resubscribe. The program won’t let me switch my new feed over :( There is a subscription link at the bottom of the new blog to get resubscribed. This link also gets you signed up for our monthly E-newsletters in which we announce specials not published on the blog.

Enjoy the new and improved blog!

Just wanted to share these pictures I took for The Gardens of Cranesbury View. My sister was the beautiful model. I think she was just ecstatic to get into her wedding dress again because she never had any bridals done. The Gardens are a new events venue off 46 that will be completed in March 2009. It is gorgeous and features Italian sculptured gardens and beautiful views of the hill country. Amy, the owner, has to be one of the nicest people I have ever met. I just know this new venue is going to be a great success with her direction.
