From the Bottom of my Heart.. Thank You!

So the Project Prom Dress went off without a hitch and I must say that the project sponcers were so pleased that every girl left that day with a dress.  For all of you that follow me here, heard the call and responded,  I say thank you from the bottom of my heart.  I was surprised at the response in such a short period of time.  It warmed my heart that you came through with such conviction to do what you could.  I think it is a woman- girl thing.. looking back, remembering how if was for us as a teen.  You really came through.

Project Kissing Frogs was able to provide over 30 dresses to DC Public Schools for the day and helped make a lot of dreams come true.  I was happy that my daughter, Kai, was able to be a part of such a special project for the girl's in DC as well.  She was thrilled that her efforts made a difference to girls that she could relate to. Fashion, jewelry, dresses, prom, pocket books, shoes = happy teen girls.. she, along with the girls receiving the dresses, could not stop smiling.

sarah - senior session

she seemed a bit shy at first but when we got a moment to talk she voiced her opinion freely about what was to come for her in the days, months and years to come. she was positive, sensitive and yet strong with definite opinions concerning life, friendships and love.  she has a smile that lights up a room and an electric personality to equal that of any superstar.
we had so much fun shooting this session and i can't wait to here all about her ultimate college choice and her rocking prom date.. because there are a plethora of choices to make, in all things related to life, at her age and i am so refreshed to hear that she is examining hers....

here are a few of my favorites.. click here to see her slideshow
