FREE ALBUM!

i attended my PUG meeting last night where
melissa, from pictage flew out to talk
to us about the new, free album design program
and show us all the additions that they have made.
it was really quite amazing. i've worked with
their album design in the past and they have
really made some significant changes!
this will simplify wedding album design and
also allow for more creativity! yay! just in
time for a heavy wedding season...i was considering
other album design companies and now i do
believe that i may just stay with the pictage
album program. pretty exciting! thanks melissa!
good to see everyone, the group was the biggest
i've ever seen it (largely due to the free album
no doubt!). i have to turn in my album design
by next tuesday... i'll post a link to it when
i receive the confirmation.

monday night, i attended my TCPPA group lecture
and a photography team from mankato came up to
discuss album design as well (funny!)
this gal is a graphic design major and was a little
"text book" heavy and lost me a few times but
i got enough out of it to assist me in the long
run. her colleague spoke mostly about general,
everyday preparation stuff, equipment and web stuff.
so, albeit not very exciting...basics are alway
good to go over and to hear someone else go
though their routine is nice too.

i met with jenny. she is the student that contacted
me about an internship this summer. she brought
along her portfolio and we talked during one of
the breaks. she has found a commercial team
to work with this summer and that might just be
a better fit for her as i looked over her work
she seems to lean more in that direction anyway.
always good to make contacts tho'!! nice to meet you
jenny!

friday i head over to the airport hilton to
photograph THREE cancer families! one of which
is hailey, the young gal that was at the twins
game a couple of weeks ago! so i printed out
some of the images that i shot of her and her
mom & sister to bring along to give them!



full of energy, that one!!!!

saturday is mike & kindra's anniversary.
sunday is emily's TENTH birthday! WOW!!!





today is my sister, anne's, 2 month anniversary
of not smoking! i am so proud and excited that she
has finally put that behind her!
her husband, pete is about a month ahead of her.
CONGRATULATIONS to you both!! I love you!
here they are at rick & amanda's wedding last summer...



i mailed a card to kathryn but i forgot to mention
that monday was her 6th birthday! HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY!!


enjoy your tuesday!
