We've started booking for our Spring/Easter Limited Edition sessions...
...not 100% set on what the background will be at the moment,
but wanted to let ya'll know in case your schedule is like mine (insane!!!!)! LOL!

So take a look at your schedules, and let me know what works for ya!
The dates are March 12, 13 & 14th

…Gearing up for senior season!

The senior website is still in the works…
But wanted to let everyone know that the spring is booking up fast!
Saturday appointments in March are almost full…
and April isn’t too far behind…
So if you know that your wanting to book your session with us,
don’t wait!
I’m making sure everyone knows that the turn around time
(without a rush fee) is 6-8 weeks from the session date!
Last year we had a ton of clients paying rush fees
to get their wallets in in enough time to send in invitations…
so kudos to everyone that has already placed their orders!
Ya’ll are so on top of it!
Just sharing a couple images from a order we're working
on at the moment...
LOVE these!

25 random things about cherish...

1. I desperately want to live by the ocean.

2. I keep little scissors in my car, and at my desk for when I see a split end.
I get really funny looks from the people in the cars next to me while sitting in traffic.

3. At any given moment I might decide to break out in song.

4. Once I get a restaurant or a type of food in my head I get perturbed if the plans suddenly change. It takes a long time for my taste buds to except the change. Sometimes they don’t even except it… they just go with the flow. But they’re not happy about it.

5. If Russ & I ever have a child, there’s a chance that it will go home from the hospital without a name. I’m really not sure if we’ll ever agree on anything. LOL...

6. I look forward to traveling to Europe one day. Sooner than later would be fab!

7. When I was 10 or 11 I would set up little scenes with my little teddy bears and take pictures. One time in particular, I made tiny newspapers and had them reading while having tea… all in a circle with sticks in the ground around them like a fence. I need to find those pictures. They are SO me.

8. I really enjoy music. I like all kinds.

9. We eat at this Mexican restaurant, Caliente almost once a week.

10. I love our friends. I love that because I don’t like hamburgers they’ve started buying chicken to throw on the grill when they do burgers. How awesome is that?!!?

11. I get easily annoyed with people who judge people before getting to know them. I could go on forever about this, but we’ll leave it at that.

12. I don’t remember the last time that I’ve been bored. I’m not even sure I remember how to be.

13. If your pets could take after you, like children do… our cat, Moses would take after me. LOL... it’s true. He’s quite and odd individual.

14. I’ve always wanted to take ballet.
Still to this day I would like to. I think it’s such a beautiful thing to watch.

15. We rarely eat dinner before 8 o’clock in the afternoon.

16. I have to write everything down because it WILL completely disappear from my head.
And if it doesn’t get written down, it’s gone forever. (Or until I randomly remember it, usually sometime after the importance of the actual information) No lie. I’ve come to believe that my brain can only contain a certain amount of information and it’s almost maxed out. Anything new that needs to be stored will have to be processed & approved before filling up any more space. Haha…

17. Target is one of my absolute favorite stores. I could stay there forever. They just know how to market to me and everything seems so wonderful. I’m also a sucker for those little red stickers. It really doesn’t make a difference if it’s only 15 cents off, if it has a red sticker it’s a great deal!

18. I cannot stand eating at places that have those nasty cafeteria cups that they pretend are clean. They freak me out and I get disgusted. It’s usually the pizza places where they let everyone and their mama walk by and touch the food before you get there to eat it.Yum, right!??!

19. I’m a major mulit-tasker. Honestly I’m not sure if I can only do one thing at a time. Maybe I should try it out sometime.

20. I can sing along with Beauty and the Beast for almost the whole entire movie. Some people find it entertaining.

21. I could eat pasta every day of my life and never get tired of it.

22. Sometimes I’ll keep the same cd playing in my car for a month or two. It doesn’t bother me.

23. I was homeschooled from 1st grade on. I went to kindergarten and told my mom I didn’t like waiting in line for everything. That’s not the reason I didn’t go back the next year, I just think it’s funny.

24. Fall is my favorite season. I’m not really sure why, I just love it.

25. Occasionally when I can’t find a bobby pin for my bangs I get flustered and use tape. I’ve forgotten about it and gone somewhere before I realized I had scotch tape in my hair. Pretty classy, huh?
