Happy Easter Weekend Everyone! Little PEI is a buzz with sunny temperatures, people on the boardwalk, and children filled with excitement.

The smell of Spring is in the air. The smell of Spring is a very distinct one. I love that fresh smell. I even love that you can see mud, as long as the sun in shining on it. I am glad that spring is coming early for us! To get rid of all that old winter snow and have a fresh start is the best thing for all of us!

These tulips were left outside my door about 2 weeks ago. I thought they were so beautiful I photographed them. I love tulips & I love surprises. Having a little surprise outside my door, especially one of my favorite flowers is a cause for a smile.

I hope your Easter weekend is full of sunshine, happiness & love!

Happy 60th Birthday Mom!

03.29.10

60 years of love, family & giving is what I celebrate today. My mom turns 60 years old. I cannot even believe it. To me, she should still be around 40 years old. It seems like yesterday she was up every morning getting us ready for school, making sure our pizza was in our lunch bags, and breakfast was on the table. Can you believe that? Everyone morning after dragging us out of bed and most likely battling a few fights between my brother & I, she had breakfast on the table for us.

The family celebrated her birthday on Sunday afternoon, with a ton of delicious food, gifts and of course one of my sister's traditional "I can make you cry" sideshows. I love our family gatherings not because of the above mentioned but because I love my family so much that I cannot get enough of them. Their is a ton of nuttiness mixed with love, and that is no better mixture around.

My mother is a wonderful, caring & loving person who I am proud to call my mom. Happy Birthday Mom. I hope 60 is your best year yet.

Setner Family

03.27.10

I had photographed Cindy last year, last spring. What a spark plug! A spark plug is someone with a ton of excitement, full of life and dreams. I was happy to have met her! Then she introduced me to her nephews. The pride and joy of her life. Instant connection this has brought us. I loved the way she doted on her nephews and I am sure they didn't mind either, and I understand completely how she feels about them, as I am the same with my nieces. I would give them the moon if I could, and I am sure Cindy would do the same for her nephews.

So we took a walk around downtown and took some pics of them alone and with their ever so beautiful & handsome Mom & Dad! No wonder these boys are so cute!

Cindy:

We have all enjoyed the photos you took last fall. We were so pleased with them. I loved how you followed Max and Luke around letting them do whatever and captured their little personalities. Thanks Rachel.

Out & About

03.22.10

Trienke & Jane have no idea how much they brightened my day. They were willing to be excited about any idea I had for a photo. They didn't even question a thing I said. I had photographed Trienke last spring in an Everyone is Beautiful Session. I was excited to photograph her again, and this time with her cousin, Jane.

We walked around downtown beautiful Charlottetown after sampling pretty much everything that Gusto's had to offer. I laughed at these two so much on the outside and the inside. Sometimes when you are having a bad day, just doing something you love, or listening to your favorite music or being with amazing people can turn it all around. Thank you so much girls for turning my day around. I know it may shock most of you to know that I can have a bad day! But hey! I am human too and sometimes it happens, not too often but sometimes! It was such a sunny afternoon & it was great to spend it with two awesome girls! I look forward to the next walk down the next dirty alley with you both!!!!
