Memories, Dreams, & Reflections

A look back at 2010.

1. Me! - My sister, mom, and I on Christmas Eve. This year has provided so many great things - from a great new job to learning and growing my photography knowledge. I know 2011 will be a great year for me and my husband and my family - and we are ready!

2. I Love You - Me and my ever so supportive husband - cannot believe our 2 year anniversary is in 9 days!

3. Still Laughing... - This photo will always make us laugh. Bentley and his bath time photo.

5. Birthday -I celebrated the beginning of the last year of my 20's on Christmas Eve. I fully intend to make my 29th year rock!

6. Friends - This is a great bunch of friends. Old and new.

7. I Was Inspired... -This photo was one of my favorites from the wedding I helped shoot. This shot inspired me, not sure why but I was so happy with everything about this shot and I think it got me more excited to learn more

9. Travel or Vacation - Every Summer we head to the River, and go to historic Gruene
Emily - Light

10. Summer Days -A day at the lake!

11. A Day In My Life - This is a daily routine in our household. Bentley napping on my legs, on his favorite blanket

12. All Smiles - I love this photo of my nephew. No other way to describe this photo than "all smiles"
Evan Smiles

13. Autumn Harvest - I think these colors represent fall. I shot this on the way home from work, which earlier sunsets also represent Autumn/Fall

14. Family - We try to take a family photo every year - this was our take on the popular "Awkward Family Photos"

15. Celebrate! - Weddings are always a time of celebration!

19. Dress Up - I don't have any from Halloween this year so I am using one from my nephew's baptism - he was all dressed up in his suit

20. Macro - Evan's birthday lizard. I think my dad was more interested in catching it than Evan was

21. Holidays - This was a gift that I got from my mother-in-law this Christmas. It had a B&H giftcard inside...yay!

22. My Favorite -This is my recent favorite of the year. I just love her expression - smiles with a little sass!

23. Don't Ever Change - I think I have a great personality, but I do not have a photo of that. So I love that I still play soccer and I really hope that does not change any time soon. I intend to play until I can't anymore.

24. Just Because...So There!

25. Hopes and Dreams - I think that 2011 will provide great opportunity. I am looking forward to learning and growing as a photographer as much as I can. I have really enjoyed using this blog as a creative outlet and I really appreciate all the kind words I have received. Here's to a happy and healthy 2011- Cheers!

  14. Emily! This was so much fun to see. I LOVED looking through your year. I have no idea how you are going to pick a best face picture either because your face pictures are outstanding.

    You do great work. I love your picture with your husband. He is so cute : ) What a sweetie!
