…so here we are about to begin another year and we are so looking forward to everything that is ahead of us and all the beautiful people and places that will become a part of my family…i say family because it is truly how i feel about each and every person i have ever photographed…so as we begin a new adventure in 2011 and look forward to many wonderful moments together, i’d like to pause and look back and say thank you to all of you who have continued to bless me with your trust and presence and who honor me by letting me do what i love to do for you…it has been an exceptional gift and joy for me… you have invited me into your lives to share the most special times in your lives and trusted me to give you something priceless and it has been such a priviledge getting to know each and everyone of you and your families and friends…to all of you who have continued to share your lives with me through your pregnancies and children,  family weddings and special events in your lives, you are more than clients to me, i consider you friends…

to all of you who i will be working with this year and next and to those of you i have yet to meet, i can’t wait!

thank you, thank you to all of the wonderful vendors who have referred me and let me share in the art that you produce as well…your continued confidence in us is so appreciated…

as always, i have many people to thank for making what i do so much easier, so a great big thank you to the wonderful artists who have helped this past year create beautiful images for you alongside me…thank you bob and joe for continuing to produce exceptional work, special guest stars like larry evans &  jen rutherford who was such a treat to work with, and as always, my sidekick and partner in crime, sara…words cannot express what you have meant to me…

phyllis, there are no words…she returns my emails, checks my orders and generally keeps me sane…i do not know what i’d do without you!

finally i’d like to thank my amazing family for more than i can even post here…my incredible brothers in law for helping me build my new studio (it’s perfect!) it literally would not be as beautiful as it is without you…to my dad who is in remission from the cancer that took him away from working with me for awhile and who keeps an eye on all of the business paperwork that most artists detest…for my mother’s decorating genius (she came up with two of my favorite things in the studio)…for my sisters and nieces and nephews for all the love and support…my laughter and sweet love, bobby…and finally, for my boys…my incredible son, alex, who was just accepted to college in providence ri…i don’t know what i will do without you here…you have inspired me beyond words and i am so proud…and to my other amazing son, ryan, who helped me even when he didn’t want to and who dug a path in the snow for my customers to get to me and who continues to astound me at every turn…i love you so…and finally my buddy boy…buddy (see pic below) has been my third son since 2001 when i adopted him as a puppy…thank you for all the kisses and unconditional love…xxooxx
