I have had a super-busy three days, and I have enjoyed it SO MUCH!  On Friday, I got to spend a good chunk of the afternoon with my first-cousin and her ADORABLE little one for pictures that turned out amazingly-well.  He has a million expressions, and I tried to capture each one.  What a fun way to spend a sunny Friday afternoon!

On Saturday, I was blessed to be a part of something very special.  I took part in sessions to benefit the Homa Bay Orphanage in Kenya.  I am so glad that my husband's cousin, Sarahbeth, asked me months ago if I would like to be a part of

such a great event.  I enjoyed meeting everyone, and photographing them.  It was about 40 degrees, and for the last 2 1/2 hours of the day, we had off and on rain to contend with; but everyone still put on their best smiles, and all of the pictures from those sessions turned out better than I could have imagined.

After Sunday School and church with my kids on Sunday, I was off to the Poe Plantation to photograph another cousin of my husband's, Veronica, and her family.  I swear they had been practicing, because we were finished in about 35 minutes.  Their images too, turned out gorgeous.  This was my first session at a client's home, so it was a little different for me.  Veronica has some great scenery and a terrific family.  I enjoyed chatting with her after the shoot was over, while our five combined kids played together.

I now have nearly 200 Facebook (www.facebook.com/NDaltonPhoto) fans, and I've booked three new clients that I've never met before, upon the referral of other clients.  It appears that this photography gig may be taking off, just as I have wondered for YEARS if it would do, should I ever start my own business.  It's been smooth sailing so far, and I feel incredibly blessed at this point in my life.  God is so good to me!

God bless you!

Be Well,
Nicole
