Rodeo! Fun w/Fusion!

Rodeoing is in my blood, 

not due to my ancestry,being born to two city-slickers,

but rather

due to growing up in north central Florida

where I had the privilege of being befriended by two rodeo families

who let me tag along with them to do some barrel racing. 

(thanks, Crofts & Strombecks!)

Let me just say...

those Southern rodeo announcers sure had trouble, or fun,

with my name as I barrelled into the arena...

"Next up...

Michelle DeeeeeeeGeeeeeeeOoooooooVannnnnnnEeeeeeeeee"!

By the time they were done pronouncing my name,

I was already done with the cloverleaf and heading back to the finish line!

So naturally,
 I took great pleasure in working on this following video and images...

for two reasons...

I LOVE fusion,

I LOVE rodeos!

Thanks for the excitement!... and the great photo ops!

ONEderful ~ Little Miss K

 

A look of wonder

on the face of a one year old

combined with the most

fluffiest billowing cloud of a tutu

 

 

 

throw in

one. of. the. sweetest. grins. ever

  



 

 

and you have the formula for a

photographer's dream.

 

 

Just let me say that

Little Miss K

is ONE little dream girl

 

 

 

 Spunky.

Outgoing.

Always on the go.

 

 

Although willing to sit for a moment

and throw a kiss,

 



 

 

more willing to get up and go on an adventure

 

especially if it involves an

"un-hot air" balloon ride!

 

 

 

Little Miss K,

don't forget to look me up for

 your Senior pics...

 

 

 I want to see

where your adventerous spirit

really takes you!

Sky High Love

 

 

 

A wonderful fringe benefit to being a photographer is

 meeting such wonderful people

and hearing such wonderful love stories!

 

Here is

one such couple

and story...

 

~~~

 

Kaitlin and Wade

 

 

 

 

have their feet planted firmly on the ground.

 

 

 

 

Their occupations, well, they're both in public service,

which tells you a little bit about their hearts...

well, really alot!

 

Kaitlin a teacher; Wade in law enforcement.

 

 

 

And even though they are firmly planted...

 

in their community,

 

in life,

 

in love...

 

their relationship started

miles above the earth...

 

 

 

 

on a flight in college

during a class trip to Washington, D.C.

 

 

 

 

 

As fate would have it,

they sat next to each other

 

and the rest, as they say, is history...

 

 

 

This couple fell in love!

 

~~~

 

Kaitlin and Wade,

I love your story!

 

Best wishes

 are being sent your way

for your upcoming wedding

and

may your hearts continue to fly high...

together!
