Nom, nom, nom......

This cute little guy + pizza + happy grins = one happy photographer!

I took these in honor of Mr. L's first birthday, earlier in the month. Pizza is his favorite food...so why not go downtown to Papa Keno's--who happens to have the best pizza in Kansas??

Here is a sneak peek, mom. Hope you love them!

{ 3 } one of my own

Happy birthday to my firecracker, lovebug, snugglepuppy.

And yes--this means another slide show! It will be worth it, honest. (It features Johnny Cash and, well, lots of sweetness!)

2009 { recap }

Joyful Photography is bringing in the new year with a new look, both here, and on the main website! Be sure to go check it out! Thank you SO much to the talented Jennifer of Jennifer Allison Designs!!

I've also put together a slide show of images (personal and some session faves) to celebrate 2009. It was no easy task! Picking four minutes worth of photos out of literally thousands and thousands proved difficult.

At any rate, happy new year!! I will leave you with an Irish blessing that seems fitting to me for bringing in 2010:

“May God grant you always...a sunbeam to warm you, a moonbeam to charm you, a sheltering Angel so nothing can harm you. Laughter to cheer you. Faithful friends near you. And whenever you pray, Heaven to hear you.”


And to everyone who helped make my 2009 magic...thank you.

"It's for you."
