All The Wacky Photo Wednesdays That I Missed (On a Sunday)

Okay, I know, I know. I am sorry! I have been super busy and I am sure I have just ruined your Wednesdays by not posting a wacky photo :( Im horrible! BUT I found quite a few photos to share with you today that will hopefully make up for it!

Bzzzz!

Minnie Mouse and Baby Smurf.

Um, dont know what I was thinking for this one...Maybe a version of Cruella Deville? And Mike was such a punk, still is now a days ;)

And finally...

No, this is not me. Its my Mom and Dad. I just thought I would sneak one in of them on here.

One more Wednesday left to post then its HALLOWEEN!!!

Wacky Photo Wednesday! (On a Sunday)

There was a request to post my usual Wacky Photo Wednesday pic.

It may be a Sunday, but hey, why not!? So here it is:

Yah thats right, I had my own pony as a kid! My pony only had two legs and liked to wear rain boots! ;)

Another Wacky Photo Wednesday!

It was brought to my attention by Mrs. Moose Peterson (Sharon) that today was Wednesday. Time to post another photo! I figure that because Halloween is coming up next month, I will post old Halloween photos until it has passed OR until I run out of Halloween themed photos.

Mikey (my Brother) was Aladdin and I (dork) was some kind of Princess...I guess I have always been a Princess though ;)

Wacky Photo Wednesday!

Another blast from the past:

Gosh, don't I just look so darn cute! What ever happened to me? ;P

Favorite Photo/Follow Friday

While visiting wildlife photographer Moose Peterson I took quite a few photos from Yosemite and Minaret Vista. I had an incredible time and I thought I would share a few of my favorite photos with you guys!

This photo was taken of me at Minaret Vista by Moose's son, Jake Peterson, or who I like to call "Jakey-poo"

Amazing clouds while the sun was setting in Yosemite.

... And again.

El Capitan and The Three Brothers in Yosemite.

The trip was a great experience. I truly enjoyed spending some time with Moose, his wife Sharon and son Jake.

My FF today would feature Moose Peterson - wildlife photographer and a very inspirational person to me. Be sure to check out his blog too! 

Thought of The Day Thursday

I find it incredible how first impressions really do affect the way someone thinks about another person. It's like people only have one shot to prove themselves to others and if they don’t do a good job the first time, then they don't get a second chance to change people's opinions.

Take me for example, I am an outgoing, fun, bubbly, loving, talented, funny, kind-hearted, etc type of person.  When I was about 16 years old, I started working as a news anchor for a podcast called PhotoshopUserTv.com At that point in my life, I was young and wasn’t exactly taking life too seriously. Years went by and I was partying, staying up late, anything a growing teen would do to have fun. The people around me whether it would be family, friends, or even coworkers were witnesses to this – this is where the “first impression” part comes in… So in some of these people’s minds I am a crazy, irresponsible “wild child”. Up until recently I didn’t care what people thought about me – and in a small way I still don’t, BUT it would be nice if I was able to get that second chance.  It would be nice for people to see that I am not the same person I was when I was 16 years old, but that I am a mature, motivated, driven and professional 22 year old woman.

I am currently an assistant for a wildlife photographer named Moose Peterson, traveling to different cities on these amazing workshops called DLWS (that will be discussed on another exciting and informative blog post). I am also just about to open my own photography studio and I provide Photoshop retouching services. At 22 years of age I have to say, that’s not bad at all! I am doing what not even some 30 year olds are doing, and I am still having fun while doing it… yet in a very professional manner :)

Side Note: Like I have said before, I am going to try my best to post some kind of blog, video or photo each day. BUT please don't be upset if I miss out on a few days here and there. Work has me SO busy that it is difficult to do these kind of things sometimes. But I rather be working than doing nothing at all ;)
