what a great way to end the week!!

I'm feeling really and happy!

First of all, I am really happy with some of the pictures we got from a family shoot we worked on last week (see attached picture)

Then early in the week I had a really good boudoir photography shoot for one of my clients. Boudoir photography, if you are not familiar with it is, as stated in wikipedia, "is revealing style of photograph where implied nudity is common, as is the subject showing part of their undergarments while still dressed."

But our "definition" is simply sensual pictures after a session of pampering by a make-up artist, a bit of champagne and you feeling fabulous and glamourous with pictures for yourself or to give as a gift for a special person in your life. :)

Anyways, we had so much fun, we ended up working together for 6 hours!!!

Also, as you might remember, I am trying to have a baseball team I coach travel to Northern Ireland. These are not ordinary kids and they really need our support.

So the other day, whilst I'm doing a bit of a email fundraising operation, I see this ad about Warburtons, the family bakers. It shows people talking or encountering Jonathan Warburton here and there and makes a point about how friendly he is and all that. I had seen the ad a few times that week and had noticed that Warburton was the brand of bread we had in (I don't buy the shopping you see, so I need stuff to notice)

Anyways, the ad finishes with his email address, I decide to use it and email Brett Warburton as well, which I learn is his cousin. They both replied within a week. Now you might ask, why am I so excited? How much money are these bakers giving me? To be honest, at this point and time, I have no clue, all they said was that they will chase it up. But the friendliness of their email and the fact that they took the time to reply to my email is enough for me to get excited!

These kids really are important to me and so I've sent emails to 300 local companies, including bakers, and most of them never even bothered replying.

So simply because they made me smile by being just as friendly as their "tv personas" and for taking interest in a very special group of kids, I publicly want to thank Jonathan and Brett Warburton and wish everybody a great weekend!!
