¡Revíva!

I finally got a chance to post images from the ¡Revíva! show on May 21st. This band gets batter every time I see them. They are a group of awesome, talented guys and I love going to their shows. I always have such a blast!

Check out all of the images on my Facebook Fan Page. 

365 Project: Day 118

The past week has been chaos around my house. The police have been at the house across the street everyday for a week. They've been arresting people, hauling stuff out of the house, and still continuing to stake it out from an incredibly obvious van that I've seen parked in the street. Today there was a cop chasing a car down my street when they refused to pull over. I'm starting to worry.

On top of that, there has been a construction crew at my house every day for over a week now. They are turing that garage full of junk that I took my picture in front of on Day 108 into a studio apartment. I snuck in there today to take a peek. I'm a little annoyed that the landlord chose to put money into converting the garage instead up fixing the two houses that are already falling down on the property. I think this will be a nice little apartment for someone once its finished though. It would make the perfect office for me if I could afford to rent it. Or if I actually wanted to stay in this house another second. With all the craziness around here lately I can't wait to move out of here!

365 Project: Day 117

I love 24 hour places. Restaurants, gas stations, bars, etc., I love them all. There is just something about a business that NEVER closes that I find really interesting. I have become a sort of connoisseur of these kinds of places. That was my favorite thing about Las vegas. EVERYTHING is 24 hours! Its like heaven.

My new favorite 24 hour place is Harold's Laundries. This place is amazing! Its a 24 hour convenience store that is also a laundromat. I love it! The laundromat part is genius! All it needs is public showers and you could practically live there.

The convenience store is small, but its stocked with all the essentials: sodas, chips, stale "fresh" pastries, candy bars and a sassy elderly woman who has obviously smoked most of her life/ gotten too much sun behind the counter. In addition to all the traditional goodies, they also have an ample assortment of miniature laundry soaps: liquids and powders. There is even one of those Claw arcade machines that are impossible to ever win a stuffed animal out of, and a candy/sticker/temporary tattoo/crap you don't need dispensers that every kid loves. 

I took a ton of pictures there today while waiting for the laundry to finish. I can't wait to show you guys.

365 Project: Day 116

The wind is so crazy today! Not so long ago I couldn't wait for Spring to start, but now I can't wait for it to be over. I forgot that Spring in New Mexico comes with a lot of really windy days. Its like mother nature's own special form of torture. The temperature finally warms up, but you have to deal with blowing sand, dirt in your teeth, your hair all tangled, allergies, etc. It sucks.

Senior Portraits!

Last week I had a blast spending the afternoon taking Anika's senior pictures. It was such a beautiful day and Anika was so great! I couldn't have asked for a better photo shoot. Here are a few of my favorites from the day. Thanks Anika!!

Its that time of year!

I'm now booking for Spring and Summer photo sessions! If you are interested in booking a photo shoot just send me an email at saranorrisphotography{at}hotmail{dot}com.

Don't wait! I only book a certain number of photo shoots for the season and you don't want to miss out!

New Print!

There is a new print in my Etsy shop. This was taken recently at the Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta. Seeing all the hot air balloons floating around was so amazing!

Up, Up and Away!

Up, up and away!

Even though I have lived in New Mexico for about 15 years off and on, this was the first time that I went to the Balloon Fiesta in Albuquerque. I was so excited to go! I got up at 4am to watch all of the balloons lift off at dawn. Little did I know that I would be stuck in traffic for 3 hours and have to watch the whole thing from my car! But it was still an amazing site to see and I took a lot of great photographs.

These prints will be available in my Etsy shop very soon.

We Are FAMILY!

I photographed the most awesome family last week! I'm still getting myself up and running in New Mexico, but I drove to Roswell for the day to take some shots of these guys.

They were such good sports! I even had them jumping off of this platform at one point!

Aren't they all gorgeous! They look just like an ad for jeans or something!

I had a great afternoon with you guys! Thank you so much!
