Hi blogland! What is it that they say about good intentions? 
My intentions were big for the blog for July posts but alas that’s all fallen by the wayside as we round down to the end of the month. I can hardly believe back to school shopping is here and the kids will be in school in less than a month! Where has summer gone?
Before I get to the "what I did this summer" part of the blog, I’d love to ask you, the blog reader, to vote for Marmalade Photography for Chicago area Family Photographer. Please follow the link here:

(Part of) What We Did this summer:
Part of summer 2010 was spent in beautiful North Carolina. We spent several days in the mountains in the Ashville area near a small town called Brevard. We stayed up up UP in the mountains at a fabulous resort…I’ll post more about that in my next entry. The remainder of our time away was spent in gorgeous North Topsail Beach, NC. We stayed at a lovely home right on the beach with remarkable views of the sand with the rolling waves of the Atlantic greeting us daily. THAT was the life.
Because photos are worth 1,000 words I’ll let you be the judge of the insane relaxation and beauty. I only got my camera out a handful of times while we were gone because I was so sick almost the whole time away. But I want to go back (now!) Is it time to go back to the beach?
I think I want a career in photographing families frolicking on vacation and just hanging out with them for the week or so. Any takers? 
Thank you for stopping in.

Greetings from the almost land of vacation time! We will be out of the office until July 19th for our summer break.
I plan on checking in from time to time, hopefully I will have some amazing images to share with you, my blog readers! I will check my voicemail once or twice weekly so if you’re a client with an order pending I’ll be in touch. As for new inquiries, please hold tight, I will be returning phone calls starting the 19th. I still have some late July availability however only a couple of August dates remain!!
(is it REALLY almost the fall season? Wow.)

I had the pleasure of hanging out with the gorgeous R Family last night. We did a mixed urban/nature session and had a blast. A sisters session is one of my favorite things to photograph and this session was certainly no exception. A huge thank you to the gorgeous I and her sweet little sister M who I had such fun with. On with the sneak peeks…
Yes…we had quite a good time.
Thank you for stopping in!

The weather held out for us (thankfully! I don’t think I’ll be that lucky the rest of this week!) It was a bit hot & humid last night but still we had a cool time with the S Family for an urban session just outside the door of my Wilmington studio.
The best part of my evening? I got to meet little L finally – she is such a sweet beauty! Thank you to her beautiful parents Amanda & Kyle for travelling from southwest of Morris for a Marmalade Photography session!
I loved little L’s outfits – the paisley made me happy and the denim jacket on the horse…well I’ll let you be the judge!
and here’s a shot of the fabulous O with her beautiful p’s:
one more sneak peek on the blog here…
Thank you for stopping in!

I was *so* happy to see these siblings late last week…some of my favorite images from last season were taken during their session. The littlest guy is turning one and this session was for him (mostly) but of course his adorable big bro & sis made it into the act as well!!
Finally…a quick snap shot but I love the precarious balance the birthday guy has here:
