Since I live such an exciting life...NOT...I thought I would blog.

Hi - I'm Jess.  At one time, I was primarily an artist.  I LOVED making cloth dolls and painting whimsical mixed media paintings.  It was my passion.  Another thing I have always loved is photography, but because the professional equipment was so expensive I always fiddled around with my point and shoot camera.  I was pretty good, even with such basic equipment.  So my sweet boyfriend Paul bought me a gorgeous Nikon D80 and some pretty fantastic lenses and proceeded to change my life.  I now spend most of my day snapping a photograph of something or another.  My specialty is photography of homes.  I enjoy it most. 

Let's see - more about me - well my life is far from boring.  My days are packed with excitement.  I have a small chicken farm.  I am now the proud owner of over 200 chickens.  They used to have names - now there are just WAY too many to name...I love always having fresh eggs and my kids love to watch the eggs hatch in the incubators.  Pretty soon we will be adding Ostrich to our farm...I have 7 eggs in the incubator now and boy am I excited.  At the same time I am wondering what on Earth we are going to do with Ostrich running around.  So, let's see - I also have a variety of turkey, five different breeds of duck, peacocks, guineas, dogs, cats, and Charles - the pot-bellied pig.  He is hilarious!
Well - that's all for now - I guess I will share some of my favorite pictures at the end.  Have a happy Fourth of July!

XOXO Jess

This is a photograph of my Kaeli at Easter - OH! Forgot to mention that I have bunnies too!
Here is my little handsome man Chase - we call him "Chasie".


This is a cute little girl that I photographed back in April - she was precious!
