This summer has been an absolute joy, exploring my career in photography and making some of really great friends along the way. I met up with my fellow photog friends Sara Tafoya, Kevin Keith, Ashley Keith, Leslie O’Hara, Layne Haley, and Christina Blincoe for Sara’s birthday party and fun-in-the-sun shoot. As you will see, the light is just drop dead gorgeous and so are my subjects! P.S., I didn’t take the pictures of myself and Cody, credit goes to Sara’s husband, Josh.
If you are just getting into photography or you have been in the field for awhile, I would strongly encourage you to make friends in this industry, they will be there to push, strengthen, share, teach, and encourage you. Plus it’s really nice to have other people to talk about photography with that share the same passion. I know for a fact that I wouldn’t be where I am today if it wasn’t for my great group of friends I have made this year. Love you all!

Cool pics Tina! They made me remember this day like it was yesterday. I wish it was, it’s getting cold out and the grass and trees no longer have their color. I love our group of photography friends too! Keep it up!
