Thank you for stopping by my blog. It's been a great year!

Wow, Wow, Wow.

After reading this blog entry http://dooce.com/2007/12/13/because-i-couldnt-say-it-phone
all I can say is DITTO and AMEN!
Give it a read.

I need your help!

ETA: I submitted image 1, 4, and 12. Thank you so very much for all of your help! I actually have comments ;-)

I am going to enter a photography contest put on by this amazing photographer http://jeshderoxweddings.blogspot.com/
Here are the 2 categories I would like to enter in:
1) experiential imagery (ei): images that make you feel something, inviting the viewer to experience the moment.

2) connection (c): images that feature the beautiful connections between us.

Please view the following photos and pick the top 3 that grab you. Leave your choices in the comments section, or shoot me an email at saramoonphotography@gmail.com
I really appreciate your help!! (By the way, I could have posted a ton of images - so don't be upset if I didn't choose one of your family. These are the ones I had handy and not archived already!) Deadline is Friday morning.

Session available for Sunday

I've had a cancellation for Sunday December 16th. If anyone wants some last minute Christmas photos - email me!

Try to keep up with him

More of my favorite repeat clients.
Aiden is all energy all the time. But dang it he's so cute.
Emma isn't bad herself ;-) Little beauty! I last photographed her at around 2 weeks and wowsers, little ones grow fast.

This shoot rocked

Julie's (the mom) smile lit up the entire city of Houston. She must have been a former model. Gorgeous inside and out, too.
Albert (the dad) was totally into the shoot. Some dads are a bit less than excited...
Ethan was adorable.
The result? They had a gajillion beautiful shots of happiness. Pure happiness.

Some more returning clients - love them

Couldn't ask for 2 cuter kiddos...or nicer parents ;-)

2 artsy pics

These are from a wedding I shot last weekend. I like them.

Our Family Holiday Card

Here's my little family. I love them.



Picture taken by the very talented Jen Hunter - my friend and photography partner who is MOVING AWAY :-((((

Can't deny she's a cutie - love that hair!

But oh my. Watch this.

Mouth Agape

I'm attending a workshop next summer put on by a fabulous photographer and even more fabulous person, Cheryl Muhr. www.cherylmuhr.com

Anyhoo, I had originally signed up for the same workshop set for Feb because my absolute favorite photographer in the world, Jinky, is guest teaching. I was all set to go, pregnant or not, but my obstetrician said no way. I'll be 36 weeks pregnant...phooey.

So, I saw on Jinky's blog today that she and Cheryl are doing joint family photo sessions. Check out this link and get a gander at the price!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Holy Guacamole. Probably worth every penny, but it'll send you to the poorhouse!

Cool Artist, Cool Jewelry

I read her "about" page and then had to spread the word. I requested a Christmas present from her Etsy shop, the link below is her website.

I think I ordered the "bangle necklace". You can pick your color/herb and word combination.

Buy handmade and avoid corporate America as much as you can ;-)
