So while the winter months just hang around, there are exciting thimgs going on around here.

I was working on a new website that I thought was the bomb. I worked on it for 2 weeks and was really diggin it. Then I happened to have a glance at the site that I have right now........I'm keeping it! Its way to cool for me to let go of right now. www.dustybrown.org

Instead I will be revamping it and adding the newest photos and making small changes to it.

With that comes a new blog. I know some of you who are avid followers are saying not again, but hopefully with the way this blog is turning out it will be the last blog I go to.

Its way cool with nice big photos and it even makes coffee for me. So how could I pass that up? Also look for a photo of the day starting with the new blog.

Also the studio is undergoing a complete rehash. Once the freezing temps leave I will be moving to a bigger space that is attcached to the house. The office is still here but the shooting space is in limbo.

That gets you up to speed for now.

A special thank you goes out to all who stopped by the Bridal Show on Friday and Saturday to say hi. It was great to see all of you and I had a chance to meet some future brides and some past brides!

Hey future brides {and even some X brides who just miss the whole planning feeling} stop on by this weeekend to Devos Place and check out our booth at the Bunny Tuxedo Bridal Show.

Lots of great venders and a wonderful place to get ideas and maybe even yours truley!

Starts Friday at 5 and Saturday at 11. See you there.

With all of the new announcements today from Apple I could not be more happy than with the addition that all iTunes purchases are now standard iTunes Plus songs! It was so frustraing to purchase an album of songs and listen to them and notice the quality level was poor! Now these puppys are at 256kb and are above cd quality.

I will certainly be buying more albums now.

Just purchased Ben Webster meets Oscar Peterson. O mama bring me a cocktail!

All of my shopping is done! All of my wrapping is done! All of the food is prepped! Everything is in order....except now we have nasty colds! Ugh.

O well. Christmas comes just once a year!

We started opening one gift a day yesterday. I got the Juno soundtrack. Lake a Tech Deck half pipe. Clover the 3 disc set of Back to the Future movies and Autum a robe, sweater and the latest parfume from Prada.

More to come later today :-)

Here's hoping you gave what you could and and nod to getting what you wanted!

I get asked weekly if I do workshops for photographers. And as flatering as it may be, I just don't do them....yet. But some great friends of mine do!

Hop on over to Mirror Mirror Studios and have a peek at the awesome looking workshop they are putting on. If your looking for a workshop to dust off those cobwebs and learn something new for the New Year, then sign up with Amy and Jen!

Hey thanks for coming over to the new blog. With the new website almost done I thought I should have a new blog to go with it. Bookmark it! Its the new place to keep up to date with everything in my world. Plus you may see yourself on here one day!!

You have to play this thing about 6 times before you understand what an idiot I am.

Our son got on this snowsurf thing and made it look super easy. I try and my dad has the video rolling. I obviously didnt get on. But much like the little train....I eventually made it down that hill.

Happy New Year!
