I am overjoyed to announce that Casey M. G. Photography is officially going to be a part of Lancaster's own Best Wedding Showcase in January! I can hardly wait to be part of such an awesome event! One more small step in making my dreams come true. :)

I've been keeping busy with lots of senior sessions and editing, an engagement, plus a baby or two. While all of this is taking place, keep in mind I am packing and preparing for my final year at Kutztown. My life is a bit chaotic right now. I'll be sure to share the rest of the seniors and other sessions once they're all finished. For now, here's a bit of Kayla and baby Norah.

This afternoon was rather difficult to get through. My cat, Jessie, had to be put down. She hadn't eaten in a few days and became very weak. Being that she was over 16 years old, this is basically what is expected. However, that doesn't make it any easier.

Now, she may have been "my" cat, but she was never a fan of me. She took a much stronger liking to my Dad. He was the "big cat" as my Mom always said. He has a very string bond with all of our feline friends. Jessie, she was kind of a mean cat, to put it honestly. She hissed a lot and never hesitated to pop you with her paw if you so much as annoyed her one bit. She successfully scared away my brother's border collie this Christmas. Keep in mind, he's 10 times her size. Never the less, she was rather intimidating. Over the past week, her intimidation level plummeted, and for the first time in years, we sort of became friends. Though this may have been due to the fact that she was too weak to bite me, I still enjoyed it.

I never thought it would be so sad to say goodbye to cat. I knew putting her down would be best and she no longer would suffer, but it's more difficult than one would think. To watch your father tear up upon saying his goodbyes and then drive away with your cat and return without her is rather heartbreaking.

According to my Dad, she fought to the end. She was hissing and carrying on at the vets and very angry with the barking dogs. I expected nothing less. That has been her personality for as long as I can remember.

I am comforted in knowing that she is safe in kitty heaven with lots of other cats to fight with, and of course lots of sinks to drink the dripping water from, but she will still be missed. I am so used to telling people I have 5 cats. 4 may seem a little less "crazy cat lady ish," but it doesn't seem right.

Rest in peace Jessie cat.

So now that it has been an entire month since my last post, I figured its time to update. Over the last 4 weeks, lots of wedding photos, senior photos, and my first ever maternity shoot have been edited. There will be many more to come hopefully, but these are a few tidbits of what I'v been busy with...

I was lucky enough to have a maternity session with Abbey and Steve before little Owynn arrived. I can't wait to have a session with the little girly soon. Considering this was my first ever maternity shoot, I was ecstatic with how the images turned out. Take a look...

Lately I have been shooting and booking lots of itty bitty babies. I love it! Heres some of my favorite black & whites from my sessions with Alyssa (6days) and Kenzie (4 weeks).

It's finally finished! Check out the AWESOME new website! Don't forget to tell all your friends!

If you haven't already, "like" my facebook page! It has many more albums to browse of my work as well as special offers available from time to time! Click to browse!

Spring has finally arrived, and I am anxious to begin scheduling some 2012 Seniors! Contact me to make an appointment today! Meanwhile, I'll be enjoying the sunshine!

It's true. I have finally given in and joined the blog world. I figured this may be much easier to update than my website (which has been ignored for a while) and better yet, its FREE. Us poor college students love that word. This will also be an opportunity to organize myself and my work more efficiently.
