This is a picture of a dear friends daughter. I took this on July 29th, 2011 on Two Lick Lake, Indiana, PA. Quinn is jumping of the front of my boat. We try and include as many family and friends to enjoy the boating season. This was taken with my KODAK CAMERA....Love it....

This is a picture of my daughter this last 4th of July. It was also my birthday.

This is a photo of my brother, who lives in Charlotte, NC., taken during a very hot July day at his neighborhood pool. The photo captures him as he descends off a waterslide with a giant splash and a big smile. A father of 4 girls, including 2 teenagers, I was so tickled to have captured this youthful side him as it is a reminder to us all to stay forever young at heart.

This image was taken in July at Chicago's Navy Pier. I was watching the children enjoying themselves on the ride and thought that I would capture their happiness.

This is a special picture, which shows action, youth, health, color and more. I like the hand reaching forward. I took this shot of my daughter couple years ago in a swimming pool.

This picture is special because it shows my funny and playful puppy enjoying cooling off on a very hot day in New Orleans this past June. The picture put the day in perspective--the weather was unreasonably hot and I was happy to capture the image of my Miki doing what we would all wished we could do on such a hot day.

Granddaughter playing in grass before she could walk.

I like this picture because reminds me that we can be happy with so little

The daughter of a friend, playing on a rainy day in Michigan.

Do you remember leisurely afternoons with your grandmother telling you stories of djinn and animals with magical powers? This scene evokes the sentiment of those warm moments I shared with my grandmother...
 

Just enjoying a beautiful Manitoba summer, when a daring butterfly entered the scene, and would not leave us alone. This was taken in my backyard.

I captured this shot one June weekend in my backyard. I loved seeing the older kids in my family spending quality time with the younger children. The bond developed by these small moments of interaction between the younger and the older children will forever be cherished and are priceless in memories.

A relaxing Sunday afternoon offered a great opportunity to snap a few photos. Getting my son and his kite in the same photo was not working well until I got the idea of shooting from below him.

People are enjoying summer activities again after the long period of rain we've had here in the Northeast. I took this picture because I loved the energy, the interaction between team members and the dust being kicked up by the players.

Playing at the beach in Florida my son began drawing with a stick, gave me the idea to write in the sand. I love the composition here.

This picture is of my daughter Laila, taken this past June by my sister-in-law. We were over at my in laws for dinner and we brought watermelon. My husband sliced it up and we headed outside to enjoy it. He was eating his piece when Laila started crying, so went over and picked her up. He offered her a bite of his watermelon and she tried it! He didn't get to eat anymore of it! She LOVED it. Alecia snapped this picture of Laila enjoying her first piece of watermelon and we thought it was priceless!!

This is at my granddaughter's first birthday party. We all were having a great time except for Reese. The boys took over her birthday present bench. "It's my party and I'll cry if I want to".

was so proud she was going to kindergarten!   

Grand child of our friends, picture taken during a wedding party.

After struggling with miscarriages for over a decade we were happily surprised with a baby girl when we least expected it. I photographed baby Aubrey in her daddy's arms in our home when she was only 2 weeks old.

I came across this delightful scene at our local beach and loved how the little boy mimicked his father's stance and how he (along with his teddy) was so absorbed in the sand drawing :)

This picture was taken in Destin, FL of my son and my husband. After I saw the picture, I immediately fell in love with it -- it looked so professional. I'm proud to say, I used my Kodak digital camera to take the picture.

Daddy and his first born both sleeping like babies.

My grandchildren enjoy along with their father in the playground.
