Today is my Dad's birthday. The photo above of my Dad and I was taken in 1984 when I was three years old. I've had this picture tacked up on my bulletin board for years now and I can't explain why, but it has always been one of my favorites. We celebrated his birthday yesterday with a nice dinner and his favorite - Boston Cream Pie. He could just about wait for us to sing happy birthday before digging into his cake lol. He has been working a lot lately and we've been pretty busy during the past few weeks. He had a nice, relaxing day of doing nothing, which I think he enjoyed :)
Dad's birthday 'cake'
Happy Birthday to your dad:-) Such a wonderful picture of him holding you as a little girl...I have one of me sitting on my dad when I was about 2 years old and treasure it as well. I would have had a hard time waiting to dig into that Boston Cream cake as well!!! hehe
ReplyDeleteSounds like you've certainly been very busy! I'm so excited for you that you'll be photographer for an upcoming wedding...I have no doubt that you will do very well:-)
Take good care and hopefully you'll soon have a day just to relax!! xoxo
Happy birthday to your dad! that Boston Creme pie looks delicious! sounds like you have been busy with this and that and I'm sure you'll do great with photographing the wedding; it does sound like fun. I know someone online who does photography as their business, weddings and such. If you want to have someone to talk with, let me know I'll see if she would be willing to share advice with you. She and her husband do it together out of the Seattle area

Hi, I came here by way of Betty who has mentioned me in her comment. =) I'd be delighted to offer any advice or help I can. I wish you lived closer as I'd offer to let you photograph some weddings with us to build the portfolio. You can always ask some of the local photographers in your area if they would be interested in having an assistant or an intern. Some will see you as a threat and not want you, others are helpful! If you want you can e-mail me: monica@familyaffairphotography.com
ReplyDeleteWishing you the best! Oh yeah, Happy birthday to your dad and good luck with the shoes. I also have problems finding good shoes for weddings. You want real comfortable shoes! =)
