Greetings from my school!
Before I left this week for my grad photo shoot and meeting with my professor about the latest phase of my dissertation, I (finally) got my much-needed overdue haircut a week ago ~ one step closer to chopping off way more length to donate after I become Doctor!

My long-time hairdresser‘s doing hair from home ~ so onto more G-Mac backcomb! #DISPObustAFlow 💆🏻

Ready to get my hair did by G-Mac ~ where it’s @! #DISPObustAFlow 💁🏻

Salon Selfie: Flat iron cut & style with a smile #DISPObustAFlow 💇🏻
When we hit the first spot to snap shots, we enjoyed eating Sunday brunch and seeing eye candy!


Here are some behind-the-scenes selfies on site …

🌞Sunday Selfie: Ready to roll onto this camera roll! DSLR cam in tow as I’m about to row ~ check✅ 📷🎥👒👚🚢⚓️

🌞Sunday Selfie: Last but not least … From cap/hat hair to 1/2 down while makeup’s still fresh & not like a clown! #DISPObustAFlow 👗👛💄👄💋

Since today’s snow day reminds me of the holidays, how about I show off the dogs who I’ve professionally photographed for season’s greetings?
First, I was fortunate to have two well-behaved French poodles of my doctor friend ~ with Kool-aid smiles!
Then, I took (many takes later) my sister‘s family’s card pic, complete with her Yorkshire terrier*!

Hope that you’re all staying safe & sound + warm & toasty, with your cozy cuddle buddies!
Photography is a sport that I lettered in
* Happy 4th Birthday, COCO, this ☼Sunday☼!

This past weekend, I took my latest photo gig to my fam friend’s 50th birthday party ~ ’50s style! Before I strapped on my cam and shot snaps, I strapped on my suspenders and shot a smile!

Since I seldom have time to shop, much less the money to invest on a full-fledged poodle skirt complete with petticoat

I just created labels from photos of real French poodles who I professionally photographed!

Presenting: my micro mini poodle skirt on a budget!

To complete the look: my high school varsity letterman jacket * my grad ring on a chain * my cat bobby socks * my bowling shoes {Stevies by Steve Madden}

My beloved felines seemed to think that I was looking fine!

My big champ cat is the #BOMBdotCom ~ as in the beautiful #photobomb dot com!

Of course, my furr babies also make the purrfect models!

✌Deuces✌ That makes 2 for Tuesday Beauty!

Cheers to my new photography gig!
Since I’ve always enjoyed being behind or in front of the camera (or both at the same time ~ hence selfies), I’m excited about doing it professionally now. My camera-happiness surely has paid off…
I also appreciate my latest blessings, including my upcoming reading at church this weekend, making massive progress on my dissertation writing this past week and my latest publication: Jenna Bush to Deliver Healthy Woman Keynote Address from Abilene Reporter-News

- These are more inspirations in the spirit of this Lenten season

Although I’ve done #StationsOfTheCross countless times, the #WayOfTheCross always has a #powerful#effect on me, reminding me to be more #humble like#Jesus. Hope the #PassionOfChrist does the same for y’all… Glad that I did the #walk in good company of#family & #friends w/a #delicious #meal to share! #GOD= #TheTruth —
eating homemade veggie soup

#TrustInGOD during #Lent & all our lives! I also always seek the #HolySpirit for #guidance to be closer to the Him everyday & always! #CHRISTbeOurLight #PraiseTheLORD
#PTL #Peace ✌
& way to go for my lil’ cowboy at the rodeo!
Oh snap, it’s the paparazzi ~ at least that’s what my best friend’s dad calls me (hopefully just out of endearment)!
