Capture the joy with an experienced, award winning photojournalist and portrait photographer. Wedding ~ Senior ~ Family ~ Sports ~ Events About me: Please bear with me, I am not a writer, and not a fan of talking about myself. I have loved photography since my sophomore year in high school, at Mt Baker when I was shown the most wonderful place on earth, a darkroom! After that, I think I spent the majority of my time there and still miss the smell of fixer on my hands. I have kept it as a hobby ever since. My kids will have more pictures of themselves then they will ever know what to do with. I recently upgraded to the wonderful world of digital slr’s. It’s a long way from my AE-1 or N65, both of which I still have and my boys love to use. Its taken me a bit to be convinced that digital can still have the depth that film does (still not 100%) but with the cost of developing and storing everything I broke down. I am loving my hobby all over again. Instant gratification is great, seeing that great picture right away is pretty cool, I have to admit. I have the amazing opportunity and luck to actually make my passion my job. My husband works as a supervisor at BP and I am extremely lucky for this. It has allowed me to set my own hours in my work and to be as busy or as slow as our schedule allows. I was a mortgage originator for 6 yrs and in banking of some sort for 11. I have always wanted to take the jump and make this my "real" job, and finally took the leap. To be cliche', I have not looked back! I am learning and practicing as much as possible through classes and workshops. I love to take pictures at all types of events, wedding, birthday parties, dances, family gatherings, you name it. I love seeing the story, feeling and emotion frozen in a photograph. If I had to choose my favorite thing to photograph I would have to say seniors and sports wins hands down. It's wonderful to have a passion and career that involves my family. My husband likes it, well because he loves sports. He is almost entirely to blame for my love of them. I figured, after having 2 boys, if you can't beat them join them! My kids love it because they like to see and share photos of themselves, their teams and friends. Please comment on anything, email me with advise, suggestions, anything that will help. One thing I love about sports photography is that no matter what there is always going to be a new angle, new style of picture and someone better then me or has a different take or style on what makes a great picture. There is always another level to get to and It will never be boring. Your purchases and downloads support youth programs and sports.

A collaborative mural for Munch’s The Scream art lesson. Students color one panel, together they make up a pretty impressive copy of his masterpiece. It has been said that Munch wanted his colors to shriek when he created his iconic Scream painting. I think most would agree that he accomplished his goal. My mural template of this famous painting includes color codes so students can closely match the original. It actually calls for one color on top of another to get Munch’s painterly look. For that reason, a bit of focus is needed so I recommend this project for maybe fourth graders on up. Please note that a purchase of this template will now give you a 25-page AND a 36-page mural. Now classes of all sizes can choose which one is right for them for just one price. 25 PDF FILE INCLUDES • 25 Coloring Pages (8.5″ x 11″) • Assembly instructions • Coloring Guide • Single Page Version • Finished 25 page dimensions: 41″ x 50″ 36 PDF FILE INCLUDES • 36 Coloring Pages (8.5″ x 11″) • Assembly instructions • Coloring Guide • Single Page Version • Finished 36 page dimensions: 50″ x 60″

Hi friends! I have a super simple post for you today all about how we've been framing out our windows. When we bought this house, there was no baseboards or trim or anything. It was kind of nice because we were able to pick these things out ourselves and go with the style we wanted. I want to show you an easy and CHEAP way to update your windows and make them look larger and prettier without breaking the bank... This is the room we started working on. The nursery. Join me on Facebook HERE this weekend because i'm going to go live and take you through styling the nursery! It'll be super fun! We have already done this window framing technique in our living room and we just couldn't believe the difference it made in the window. It made it look so much bigger and way prettier. Next we're going to do the ones in our bedroom because they aren't framed out yet either. Here is what the windows looked like before... .Pretty lame if you ask me.... but it's an EASY fix! Here's what you'll need: 3/4in x 4in pine boards - we used 3, 7 foot length pieces for each window but you can get them in any length you need A table saw Tape measure A square (the yellow plastic triangle thing in the next picture) Pencil Nail gun and nails Wood filler A handsome husband (not required) Once you have all of your supplies, you're ready to start! All we did was measure a side at a time on our windows. We had to do this because our house is so old, things have settled and become crooked over time so we figured the windows wouldn't be completely perfect and square and we were right. The sides were off by a tiny bit. Once you measure, you're going to take your board and your tape measure and mark the measurements on your board. BUT DON'T CUT YET! You will want to take your square and make a 45 degree line FROM the mark on your board so that the frame will be larger than the window. You'll end up with something like this The inside of the window will be the short side of the board. Here is the process of cutting in pictures... Our table saw is able to swivel over to a 45 degree angle to make cutting easier. I don't know that they all do this, but if you can get one that does that would be best. Once you have your piece cut, you can hang it up around the window! Make sure it is flush and nail it in. We did a nail at the top, middle and bottom. Then repeat the process until you have your whole window trimmed out! After that, you'll want to go in and fill any holes and the seams with wood filler. When it dries, go over it with a fine grit sand paper and then it's time to paint/stain! We ended up painting it white and painted the gray part white as well so it looked like a legit window trimmed out if that makes sense. I hope you enjoyed this little tutorial and aren't afraid to take on projects in your home yourself! My husband and I have been working on making this house our own for 3 years now without much help from others. We've taught ourselves how to do baseboards, flooring, tiling, board and battan, hanging lights... You name it. We don't have the budget to be hiring projects out, so teaching ourselves has been the best way to do it and once you're done, you feel so great about your work! Have a wonderful weekend my friends and take on a project!! PS. Don't forget to join me on Facebook live this weekend!! Follow me everywhere!!! FACEBOOK | INSTAGRAM | PINTEREST | TWITTER
