New Year, New Project and a little sappiness.

the stroke of midnight at kathryn and brian's wedding last night

Hey guys!

Just wanted to send out quick Happy New Year wishes to all of you.  I greatly appreciate all of you who read the blog and follow my work and all of the kind words you've given me this past year.  Thanks to all of my brides and grooms and all of the fabulous vendors I've met all year, my co-workers, kitties, big crazy dog, Facebook friends and Twitter pals.

I've started a new (for me) project for 2011: the 365 project.  This isn't a new concept, I'm sure many of you have done or seen this before, but it's new for me so I'm excited about it.  :)  One new original photo taken and posted every day for a year.  If you'd like to follow along, check it out here: Soper 365.

Now, bear with me for just a second.  I also have a few extra special kudos that I really need to mention, special people who literally make me the person and photographer that I am...

Thank you from the bottom of my heart to my wonderful boyfriend Greg who put up with my mental dysfunction and irrational fantasy football crying fits during my busiest wedding season to date. Nichole, I have limited words (which is a shock, I know) to truly express how much you've meant to me personally and professionally.  You kick my ass and holler every time I sell myself short and are the best travel companion and friend I could ask for. To my cousins Kate, Colleen, and Erin (and honorary cousin Gretchen) who are always keeping me busy with referrals and shoots of their own.  To Rex, Alan, DC, and Liz for reminding me Happy Hour is a necessity no matter how busy you get.  To Dad in Texas and Molly in DC, thanks for all your encouragement and comments you give me on nearly every blog I post, you're far away but always on my mind and in my heart.

There you go, sappiness concluded.  I hope you all enjoy your first day of 2011, personally I'll be watching bowl games and editing some beautiful photos.  Go TCU!

xoxo,
