Sweet Haley~*

Oh heavenly day,

All the clouds blew away

Got no trouble today, with anyone

~ Patty Griffin

Saturday, oh Saturday WAS a Heavenly Day! Among other things (long car ride with my beau, witnessing a wedding of two very dear loved ones in love, a new skirt) I had the joy of photographing the lovely Miss Haley Shaw! Besides being an ever dear friend and lovely soul, she is an incredible musician!(It was quite the moment when she got in my car to drive to the impromptu shoot and her music was playing on my iPod. I suppose she was flattered. For a second or two I felt like more like a "fan" than "friend.":) Below is her myspace page. Check her out! We ran around the historic/downtown section of High Point, NC and you can see how much of a giggly, shiny, happy time we had. Enjoy!~*

"It is one of the most beautiful compensations of life that no person can  sincerely try to help another without helping themselves."  - Ralph Waldo Emerson Enjoy these images from a recent fundraiser I was blessed to be a part of. Good music, good friends, good cause. Perfect. :)  http://pages.teamintraining.org/sc/nikesf09/mweber1msy

easter, internship, house show~*

It is the hour to rend thy chains,
The blossom time of souls.

Easter sunrise with loved ones. House show at sweet beau's house where many more loved ones new and old came to celebrate. 

Last photo taken while shadowing my photographic mentor of the moment, Tiffiney. I am officially an intern. :)

Today I had the sweet joy of photographing a local budding artist, H. Ryder. (She happens to also be my roomie/barista/sweet voice of Life.) We traipsed through the city talking and laughing, musing at the title of the new album and the tunes there within. I will miss this city and I will miss my Holly Belle. Isn't she lovely? :)
