Birthday Fail | Cincinnati Portrait Photographer

Guess what today is? My Birthday. I decided to take a stab at making Bakerella’s Cupcake Bites. Here’s a little something about me: When I see something that I want to try, I do it. Thats how I started in photography and how I found the PERFECT Barbecue Ribs recipe. Normally when I try something I succeed. I hate to fail. However, I have come to the conclusion that I am HORRIBLE at dessert baking and decorating.

I wanted to be the mom on the block to bake the awesome cakes and treats for school, and holiday parties. I first realized that I was a failure at cake decorating when I “set out” to make fondant from scratch. Oh I succeeded in making fondant from scratch, but when it came time to put it on a cake, I FAILED… I failed miserably! The cake was not pretty. ***UPDATE*** I have pictures of the cake from my first ever Fondant Cake Expedition.

Anyway, back to my cupcake bites. I baked the sheet cakes last night (Funfetti!) and melted the chocolate today and set out to dip them and make them cute and pretty. The results: I have no patience, and they are crappy looking :)

See for yourself:

These white lumpy things are my failed attempt at cake balls.

Stormy Sneak Peek | Cincinnati Wedding Photographer

July 19th, 2009

This weekend I shot a family wedding. The clouds were awesome for the photos until it started raining! It was freezing at the reception… In the middle of July? What is up with that?

Just wanted to share a photo I snapped as we were walking out of the theater after watching Transformers 2. The sky is always AWESOME over the mall in Florence. Too bad, its not a wide open field so I can do photoshoots there.

Hey Everyone!

I am in the process of combining both of my blogs (portrait & weddings) into one blog. I’ve decided that I’d like to share all of my photos in one place. Whats the use of making you go somewhere else to see my wedding photos? So in the future both types of photos will be showcased on this blog. Don’t worry about changing your bookmarks, the link will stay the same.

And because I hate to blog without a picture, here are a couple of shots a friend of mine snapped of me at her photoshoot. As you can see, I’m a horrible model. My “fierce” look came across as more of a constipated look, than fierce. But whatever, I rocked it.
