To Blog or Not to Blog...

Hello my dear friends.

I have not updated this blog in For.Ev.Er!!

I stopped blogging to have my facebook page for Valerie Jean Photography.

Ive debated returning to the blogging world for several reasons.

I believe that it's good for my business...and I have moved away, so it'd be a good way for everyone to keep up with the happenings in our little lives.

So i leave you with this question...

Should I return to blogging?

The Cowan Family | Abilene, Tx Photographer

Meet the Cowans! Their precious boy just turned one a couple weeks ago and let me tell you what... He.is.PRECIOUS! And a trooper, too! We were doing pictures for a little over 2 hours--he hadn't had a nap, and he lasted the whole time, he even smiled for the camera :) Gotta love that, right. What a fun family they are- they have a great sense of humor and make you feel right at home when you are with them! Their pictures were a blast to take and to edit- Enjoy!

Gretchann + Michael :: Engagement Photos

I had the pleasure of driving to San Antonio last weekend to take some engagement pictures for this sweet couple! Their wedding is in May and I am honored to get to be a part of it! Gretchann and Michael have such a sweet love of the Lord and each other--they were so much fun to be with, so easy to take pictures of too :) Hope their pictures reflect what a great couple they are, so full of life! Congratulations you two!

Happy New Year

Can't believe 2010 is coming to an end! This was one of the longest years of my life, but it taught me so very much. I look forward to learning a lot this year and continue to pursue success in my photography... I absolutely love being behind the camera and love to tweak colors and play with edits and contrasts to come up with a perfect image. I can't wait to see what the Lord has in store for me this year, not only in photography, but in my personal life as well. So many adventures lay ahead and so many roads untraveled, but I know that the ways have been prepared for us, so we could not be more excited for this new year!!

Be blessed friends this year and enjoy the life you have been given! Never hesitate to pursue your talents and dreams!

I will leave you with this:: Happy New Year from Valerie Jean Photography & The Millard duo! We love you all!
