San Diego Bound!!!

I am so very excited to be making a trip to San Diego (Labor Day Weekend) to meet some of my friends and fellow photographers.. I have been honored to be a part of a Fantastic Forum http://caughtonfilmphoto.com/forums/ for the past 2.5 years. We have photographers from all over the world, willing to teach, learn and support each other as we grow in our photography lives and support each other when ever it is needed. Stay tuned for photo's from the first annual LDPT Convention.. I will post as I find the time!!

See you all very SOON!!!

Hurricane Season...

Keep a close eye out for us in the Tampa Bay Area (the H will be over Tampa on Tuesday AM) - we are looking at a possible direct hit by hurricane Ernesto.. Please keep all of those in its path in your thoughts and prayers.. Getting prepared is important, if we didn't learn from our friends in New Orleans just last year!! This week we all will be taking time to secure our homes and making sure our Families are safe.

Sugar and Spice....

Today at Church, I was able to get some good photographs of this little sweetie!! I love creating the story boards - this gives the parent a good opportunity to purchase a 20x10 framable print to document any special occasion. This is one of the many products offered by Smiles Forever Photo - so why not book your session today... Lets make some Memories!!

More Smiles

I was very lucky to be able to take photos of my friends son Jayden... He was just darling!! At first he wasn't too sure about my camera equipment.. BUT, after just letting him get used to the camera and playing with him a while - we had a lot of FUN.. At Smile Forever Photography, I let your children have time to be children - your Photo sessions will not only included the photo time, but it it important to let them have some play time. You cant get that when you go for your scheduled appointments at some other studio's in the Tampa Bay Area.. I hope to have the opportunity to play with you soon!!!

In Memory of our SWEET Nana!!

I will need to post all future photos using Picasa since, the normal process of posting photos is not working right.. Thanks you for looking - Margie Schulz - Smiles Forever Photography

In Loving Memory!!

Well Heaven received another ANGEL on Friday, August 11th, 2006. My very good friend's mother passed away - she is at rest!! In a way I think she may of felt like she was going home. They had journeyed to Philadelphia for a vacation and she took ill. This was her hometown and maybe she just wanted to pass away where she started her life?? She was so darn sweet, and will be missed by all... Nana's normal response when you would see her - ask her how she was doing... She ALWAYS said, not bad for an OLD LADY.. Rest in peace and keep a watchful eye over your loving family.. GOD BLESS!!

I will Post a couple of Photo's later - as there seems to be an issue with posting photos!!

Ahhhh - Football Season!!

One of my favorite times of the year... When the Seasons Change in Sunny St. Petersburg, FL - Oh, might not be what you are thinking... BUT, when it changes from Baseball Season to Football Season.. LOL Last night I went to my 19th opening season game.. Being the Pre-Season - we only got to see the starters for a short time. I did take my camera to the game - and someday I still hope to be on the sidelines taking photographs... Well one can Dream right??

Re-Charged and Ready to GO!!

Vacations are such an important part of our lives - everyone should take some time with Family, Friends to re-charge yourselves!!! I had a wonderful week in the mountains - With my BEST friend and her family. I am ready to get back to work and contribute to our FUTURE success - we have a lot of exciting projects coming up!
