::One of the Cutest Faces Ever::

New York!

My family and I made our yearly trip to New York City back in December!

We had some goooood times despite the rain and snow!

Here are just a few snapshots from the day!

(side note:Life has picked up quite dramatically within the past week, so blog posts will, sadly, be a bit shorter.Once I get used to my new schedule, I will hopefully get better at blogging!)

::Snow Fun::

A few weeks ago, we had our first snow here in MD.

Yeah, yeah.

I know it was only like half an inch but hey.

Gotta love us east coasters.

So, I being the caring sister that I am, dragged my sisters out for a freeeeeezing photo shoot.

The light was perfect.

The sun was setting.

The glow was sweet.

Thanks Amy and Kris for braving the cold!

(major props to Amy for wearing heels)

Finally, the photos are here!

Heidi is a LOOOONNG time friend of mine....

We set up a time, when I was hanging out in downtown Annapolis one day, to do a photo shoot!

Of course, I end up picking one of the coldest days ever to go near the harbor. Brilliant idea Megan.Simply Brilliant.

Despite the cold and numbness, we got some great shots and had some good times:)

::It's Been Awhile::

Hello there.

I know, I know.

It's been quite awhile since the last time I blogged.

I'm terribly sorry. Life has been very eventful in the past few weeks!

BUT alas, do I see the light at the end of the tunnel??

Why, yes.

I think I do.

Get ready folks.

This is gonna be a cute one.

::Christmas Time::

I cannot believe that Christmas is TOMORROW!

It's amazing how quickly this year has gone by!

Well, in light of the holiday season, I wanted to do SOMETHING thing fun like hold give away shoot or have some sort of discount. . .

So, this is what I've come up with so far.

This coming Tuesday(December 29th) I will be hanging out in the down town Annapolis harbor area and want to know if you would like to come hang out with me and

take some photos of you!

The session would be 25-30 minutes long and only $40!!

(it would also include a disc with ALL the high res images)

If you're at all interested, please contact me at meganjanellephotography@gmail.com by this Sunday, December 27th!!

Merry Christmas!!!!

::My Favorites::

Something that I've been thinking about lately is what to blog about when your not busy blogging and editing your clients photos. Especially during those "off " months when you can't go outside, unless you want to freeze your butt off(like today, when there is at least a foot and a half of snow on the ground!:))

Why not use my blog to encourage someone?

I know some of you don't personally know these girls and I am sorry but these are a few of my favorite people ever:)

They have no idea I'm going to do this and they'll probably kill me but I don't really care. . .

My sisters are some of the most Christ-centered and joyful people you will ever meet.

You will sense and know the love they have for you and the Lord from the first moment you talk to them. They are true servants of God as they seek to run and follow hard after Christ.

Daily, they pursue laying down their lives for Christ.

To serve Him.

. . . Because they love Him. . .

. . . Because He first loved them.

Kristen, Amy and Lauren - Thank you for the way you live out your lives for our Father.

Thank you for selflessly and faithfully giving of yourselves to serve the church. Thank you for how you love and care for "your girls." Thank you for your example of obedience to the Lord in the paths that He wanted you to take. Ultimately, thank you for your love for the Lord. Thank you for the way you love me. Thank you for being my best friends.

Love you,

Meg

p.s. why do you have to be so darn beautiful!
