i'm so proud of my friend…

…my friend, Tara Whitney.

To see someone fulfill their wildest dream…to make a career out of a passion. To use their gifts to give breathtakingly real slices of reflected life back to people…well that's just cool. Chris Ford did a beautiful job executing this vision.

If you have a chance, you should check it. The photo galleries will make you sigh, and smile.

Go Tara Whit-nay.

That is an amazing web-site. My kids and I just sat and stared for 10 minutes at it. Girl has got game.

I sat and looked at every page last night. SO happy for her, it is absolute happiness on a stick. LOVE it!

Thanks for the link - so inspiring!

wish she lived closer to me.... we just got the first batch of flyers from local photographers - looking for our business - taking photos of my high school senior. Apparently that's a big deal here.

The brochures were awful - all the shots looked like the kids were auditioning for playboy.

Nothing wholesome.
Nothing real-life.
Nothing clean & simple & true.

looking forward to seeing my dd's reaction, when she sees the brochure (she'd already told me she wants a real photo, not a studio shot)

FO real. this girl rocks in pic taking! love her! :)

I checked out Tara's site yesterday and her photos are so beautiful! Just looking at them gives me warm fuzzies.

I spent a nice chunk of yesterday watching her images in a slide show. That girl is magic.

Wowzers! I am moving to Southern Cali! Prolly cheaper than paying Tara to come to Virginia!

oh i could lose days at a time drooling over tara's work.
love her work!!

no joke, my 2yr old and i just spent an hour pouring over her pics.....wish she was soming closer to me...some year she'll need a new england trip.....hey, while we're at it...how bout you come too????

Really, really, really beautiful site you've got there Tara, I love it. :)
I would say good luck, but I know you won't need it in the least. :)

I am so glad you made the mistake of posting on Donna's blog. When you took a break from blogging ---I well...stopped reading. I am so glad you are back. You bring a little serenity to my crazy.

Sorry to piggy back on another topic, but Cathy, did you know your blog was nominated at Blogger's Choice Awards? Silly but fun! I was looking to vote for someone else's NSBR blog, and I looked for yours -- just in case. You were nominated! By someone else! I have no idea who, but he/she obviously has fabulous taste.

Now you have a vote. That was, like, the easiest choice I've made since, like, the last Presidential election. ;)

If you'd like to see your nomination, here's the URL (I hope):

Have a fabulous week!

Thanks so much for that link!!! I aspire to such photographic talent -- and the website is fabulous, as well!!!

  • You Spin Me Round on CBB4
    Pete Burns. He just confounds me. Like, I just can't not look at him. Not that I think he's a freak per se, but maybe a titch. Yet in a weird way, I admire him. Maybe it's just his fabulous hair? His house mates seemed to like it, AND be slightly nervous at the same time.
  • Don't Leave Me this Way
    Seriously. Sing it, girl. I know that Jimmy Sommerville did a fun dancey cover, but you can't touch this. It makes me get up, and dance like an idiot in my office.
  • Kids Rock
    It drags a bit in the middle, but I just watched this and had tears in my eyes. Especially at the end. (Thanks, Krista!)
  • Shipoopie!
    The fact that a) this is real and b) one of their offices is in my hometown, make me want to move there and buy my car insurance from them. (Thanks, Mr. Landin)

    I like the Japanese Billy Joel and the Japanese Boss.
