Starting Out - 1/365

For a while I've been thinking that I should start the 365 day project - essentially take & post a least 1 photo each day for a year. Looking at the photos I've taken lately, I have started to see that fewer & fewer photos are for me and instead are for clients of EKC Photography. While I was debating taking on the project, my good friend Janice posted on her blog that she was starting the same project so that has inspired me to start it too! (Thanks Janice!!)

So here is day 1/365.

I'm in business!

I was finally able to find some time to devote to getting my business website up & running. As a result, I decide I should probably order some business cards to help promote my business!

As a mother of a 2 year old, usually "Moo" is the answer I get to what sound a cow makes, but Moo is also a great printing company! The best part of ordering from Moo is the flexibility you can get with the images on your cards. You can use as many different images as you would like. I settled on 6 different images for the front of my cards, and then did a custom design for the information side. They even come in a great holder!








So if you need business cards (or greeting cards, postcards, stickers, etc) check out http://www.moo.com. Oh, and don't forget to check out my new site for EKC Photography!

Halloween Revisited

Although both Los & I swore that Halloween would not be as last minute as it was last year (got Miss A's costume the night before Halloween!), it didn't quite work out that way! It did end up being rather last minute, but between a good friend loaning us an adorable costume for Miss M and making a quick trip to Target to find something for Miss A, we ended up with 2 very cute costumed girls!





Since Miss A is now 2 we decided that we would take her trick-or-treating just around our circle of about 12 homes. She understood that she was supposed to knock on the door and say "Treat Please!" - unfortunately she now thinks that works all of the time!



Even though they only went to a handful of houses, she still ended up with a pumpkin full of treats!

Do You See What I See?

My little girl has 4 teeth now... and she's pretty happy about it!



Where oh where does the time go?

And one more photo, just because....





P.S. More photos to come to explain my long absence from blogging!

The Ohio State Fair

A few weeks ago, the family & I drove out to Columbus to go to the Ohio State Fair. Having never been to a State Fair, we weren't really sure what to expect. There were of course all the standards of rides, carnival food, and crowds, but also agriculture displays, art displays (that somehow we missed!) and lots of different performers and commercial displays. It ended up being a long day but also a lot of fun.

It was also the first time that Miss A actually enjoyed a carnival ride! (I still need to post our photos from Miss A's first attempt at a carousel...)




And a few more artsy shots of the fair...







More to come another day!

Rain Rain Go Away

Today our afternoon plans were washed away by a large thunderstorm that rolled through, but as a result I captured a photo of Miss A that is a new favorite of mine.



Maybe the rain wasn't so bad...I think I might have to get this printed on a canvas for the living room!
