An Update: on Everything

The following post is just a general update on where we are at in life...

Family:
Ella is doing awesome! She keeps growing and gaining weight every week. And her smiles are the best. Last night I got the biggest smile from Ella as I leaned over her bassinet. For me, that was the first true smile I have received from her where she didn't follow it up with going to the bathroom (which is typical of most newborns). I actually teared up a little I was so overjoyed at that moment which I will remember for a very long time.

Aubrey is a potty machine! We began the potty chart method where she gets a sticker every time she uses the potty. If she has a sticker for every day this month, she gets to go back to swimming lessons - which she is WAY-SUPER-EXCITED for!

Nicole - What can I say about my beautiful wife who inspires me in more ways than she will ever know? Since giving birth to Ella about a month ago, she has dropped over 32 lbs by just changing her eating habits. She has inspired me to stop drinking soda and start eating smaller portions. She is also very much promoting and responding to any emails to photography. Nicole is definitely the heart and soul of our business as well as the best mother and wife anyone could ever ask for!

Mike - Been really super-busy with editing photos. My typical day is working the 9-5pm job and then coming home to spend a little time with the family before heading into the murky basement sprinkling magic upon photos until roughly 1am! I love doing photography, and this has been our busiest year to date. My hope is to take a break here soon and take my family on a small get-away. They deserve it!

5th Street Photography - As I mentioned, this has been our busiest year to date. We are very thankful that so many people enjoy our work and ask us to capture their favorite moments in life. This is the main reason I got into photography - to capture those moments in life. Images are just so powerful in telling a story or looking back at how little your kids used to be. We have some new stuff coming on the horizon. Our logo is in place, new business cards have been ordered, we will again be in the Wedding Planner & Guide next year, and the web site will get published after some of my time free's up. Exciting things are in store. Thank you everyone for your support!

And remember, we are totally open to those destination weddings to Paris, Italy, Australia, .... : )
