Kennedy Photography Here!  Why not take this opportunity to subscribe to this blog (over there on the right hand side) so that you are the first to know of session specials, giveaways, contests, charity functions, etc from Kennedy Photography.  You can subscribe and also unsubscribe at any time, I won’t give your email address away to any one else, and I won’t badger you with emails begging for you to hire me.  I will, however, present you with the ability to take advantage of all specials, giveaways, contest, etc, etc., as well as the opportunity to get to know me, who I am and what Kennedy Photography stands for.

I just love this new blog!  So user friendly now that I have actually read the instructions on how to set it up!  Go figure…they write instructions for REASONS!

This blog will allow me to include more and more information on it as things progress.  I will post specials that I offer, exclusive photo shoots, and the winners of my free Photo Session Drawings.  Kennedy Photography will be having Exclusive Themed Session, locally, out of town, and even out of state.  These Special Sessions will only have 10 open session appointments.  They are Exclusive because well…I do Custom Portraiture for each family and you need to keep it Exclusive so not every body has something similar!

There have been so many of you that helped me when I was first starting out.  Those of you that trusted me enough to believe in my talent and let me practice on you and your families (and even paid me!), you are the ones that I will honor many times in the future of this business.  That will also be extended to my new location and my first customers in this area as well.  Specifically for those VIP customers…you will have the first opportunity to book for my Exclusive Themed Sessions Dates.  So, be looking for them to come around!

Oh yeah…before I forget….I found something today while surfing the internet…my first pair of glasses!  Let me tell you the story first though!

These glasses popped up on my computer screen and the memories started like a flood.  You see when I was a little girl of about 5 years old there were some pretty tough times for me!  I found out I had to wear glasses, you can imagine the turmoil! I picked them out myself…they were the ones that were shaped like cat’s eyes and they were blue, yep, sky blue. It was my favorite color! If my memory serves me correctly, there were even little diamonds on the rim of the frames. So cool huh! They were thick too! Technology sure has come a long way hasn’t it? They seem to have gotten thinner over the years. I will never forget being 5 years old, 3rd week of 1st grade and walking in with these glasses on.  Kids can be so cruel!  I was so sweet, but so nerdy looking (at least they said I was).  Four-eyes became my new name almost overnight.  I hated school at that point in my life.  I would try to ignore the kids, but it was so hard.  The most humiliating part was when I was hit in the face with a basketball and they broke right in the middle.  I cried, right there in front of all those kids, I cried!  Then it only got worse…my parents taped them back together and sent me off the next day with them on.  Life at school became shear hell for me.  Maybe that is what has made me so strong now! Cool!

I had some relief at home though.  I would just go to my Dad & Mom and ask,  “Do you think I am pretty?”  They would just say “yes honey, you are beautiful”.  That was all I needed, until the next school day anyway!  I know they had to have gotten tired of reassuring me, but they would anyway.  Thank you Daddy & Mama!

Now it is years later and I am not so concerned about wearing glasses.  I have some contacts, but they just don’t feel so great to me.  I tell you though, I would give anything to have those same frames back!  I would look so awesome with them on now!  And sky blue is still my favorite color!

So this morning while I was online, I saw these glasses and they were just like MINE!!  Aren’t they just wonderful.  I really do like these glasses.  Actually I think I will go buy some more like these.  I sure am glad that no one will call me “4-eyes” anymore.  But now I would just bust ‘em in the nose and keep on smiling!
