First, I’d like to thank Tara’s father for his generous bid of over $500 for a photo package I donated to the recent Christian Outreach Foundation Silent Auction. If you haven’t heard about this amazing non-profit, they provide free after school guidance to underprivileged children whose parents lack the resources to do so themselves. And the co-founder, Liz, is such a doll and a pleasure to work with; I’ve promised to donate to them again next year.

I can’t get enough of Tara and Noah, which is evidenced by the number of images I have to share with you all. This couple is simply fabulous and they undoubtedly furthered my already fanatical obsession with red lipstick, suspenders, big tops, and red & white stripes. How fitting was it that I would meet them just before one big, obnoxious birthday carnival? I smiled. I chuckled, especially after we were ejected from private property {a rite of passage}. My heart sang. And in the split second of meeting this twosome I felt so grateful and fortunate to be doing what I love- and that is meeting and photographing beautiful people!
