Goodbye blog

This is the end, my only friend...the end.

I've decided to close Jagged Diary down for good. I just can't keep up with the two blogs, especially since they both are on Blogger and I have problems all the time posting so 1 is better than 2 in this case! I have a lot I want to share but I never have the time to post here so I'm combining my personal and photo blog into one! My goal is to make the "new" blog fun and exciting and to post a lot more. I promise to post fun things like new favorite websites, cool new artists (musical and otherwise), pictures of my family and of clients, and maybe if the mood hits me right, some hot topics in the news! I will also be offering photography specials and maybe doing some fun giveaways in the future!!

So to all my lovely followers out there, please change your bookmarks to http://sarahmaxeyphotography.blogspot.com/


Catch you on the flip side!

I want!

Remember a while back when I was trying to win a super cute camera bag? Well, I didn't end up winning that one- but my parents got it for me for my birthday! Isn't that cool? Here's the picture of my actual bag, I got to pick out the fabric and everything :)


It was hard making a final decision on the fabric, but when I saw this one with the yellow birds it made me think of Cosmo, our "family" bird. Really it was my sisters bird but Cosmo lived with pretty much every one in the family at some point in his little life so I refer to him as the family bird. He was an extremely loud Sun Conure who enjoyed sitting on your finger, sleeping under the covers with you and looking out the window. He DID NOT enjoy long car rides or hamburgers...did you know birds can throw up? They can. It's not pretty.

Anyway, back to the reason for this post.

I want to win this bag now! How cute would that be as a purse or a diaper bag? It's got lots of pockets on the inside and you can pick a fun fabric for the interior which I think is the coolest thing ever!

LOVE.

This is hard.

Keeping up with two blogs is almost impossible for me to do. I thought I would keep this one for personal pictures but I think I might just combine the two over here. I'm still on the fence so this blog will be here until I can decide.

For now enjoy these pictures of the cutest toddler in the whole wide world! Bed time at our house starts like this every night. LOVE it!!



He put his face down in the water to blow bubbles and when he came back up
this is what he looked like :)



He definitely has a personality of his own!

It's time...

...to share my big news!

I have a website!! Yes, it's true. I was getting a lot of requests from people about shooting for them so I decided to get all my stuff together in one place so that it could all be seen, along with contact info and pricing :o)

www.sarahmaxeyphoto.com is the website.

I will be separating my photo blogging from my personal blogging (here) so if you want to follow the photo blog it will be at www.sarahmaxeyphotography.blogspot.com

Thanks everyone for your support in this! I have the most amazing friends and family- I couldn't do it without you guys.

The Porter Family

Our friends Brian and Anna recently added a new member to their family- a little boy named Jackson! His big sister Payton is so funny and super cute. I had a ton of fun running around with her, she's pretty quick! They are such a beautiful family...and their dog is awesome :o)



Jack was getting ready to eat when I got there so Payton showed me her room and her cool princess makeup table, then we played outside for a while.





Is that not the cutest pedicure ever? It even matches her shoes!






Then Jack was ready for me! He is so, so, so cute!! He was really good and very patient...








We couldn't leave Vito out! I told you he was awesome :o)

Then Payton showed me how to be a cowgirl. She was very good at riding her horse!





Thanks Porter family! I had a blast- can't wait to do it again!

Mattilyn

Last week I headed up north to take some pictures of little 6 week old Mattilyn. She was not too happy to be having her picture taken and let us all know about it! Later on we figured out she was pretty gassy ;o)



She was not having fun at all!!

Nothing a little pacifier can't fix!!

And a little love from daddy...

Such a big girl!

I had the opportunity to shoot a 1 year birthday party over Memorial Day weekend and it was a blast! Little Miss Paige had an awesome party with tons of friends, yummy treats and a truckload of presents! Her mom did a great job with the flower theme and everything looked perfect!












Is this little guy not the cutest thing ever? :o)

In a sugar coma...

Happy Birthday Paige! You're such a big girl now :o)
