I am writing this entry to let everyone know of the most beautiful person that I have met in cyberspace! Her name is connie, I met her in aol's photography chat room about 2 yrs ago...we started chatting and she began sharing her work with me...and let me tell ya...she is the best child photographer in Texas! She captures children in their natural poses, rather than posing them olan mills style! The more I got to know her...the more inspiration I gained from her! I was telling her how my canon slr was stolen from my car, and she asked for my address...and when i asked why..she proceeded to tell me that she had a nikon n50 body that she wasnt using because she had gotten a dslr....I asked her how much she wanted for it and she said "NOTHING"...I was so mortified that a complete stranger who I have never met in person would send me something that she could of sold on ebay.....all she asked was that I use it and not keep it in the box to collect dust....and believe me once i gathered the money for a lens...that camera was never in that box again until I got my dslr (nikon d50)! I believe God puts people together as friends for a reason and I am ever thankful that he made me start talking to connie in the chat room! She is such an inspiration and a mentor to me and I will NEVER ever be able to repay her for the wonderful gift she has given me!!! Because of her and her love and wisdom, I have began my endeavors of opening my own business! if u ever read this connie..THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!! YOU TRULY ARE AN ANGEL FROM HEAVEN!!!!!
Side note: On Nov, 6 2007, connie gave me the best news on my 32nd birthday...SHE BECAME A GRAMMA to the most precious lil boy...wow yet another gift from this awesome cyber friend of mine...:)

I have known both You and Connie for over 5 years now. I couldn't agree with you more. The worl dneeds more people like yourselves in it. Kids now a days have lost that respect and friendiness you both offer people. The world has changed so much, and it's refreshing to see people still have good character. Character is what you are when no one is around. And when you are happy within first, being nice to others comes so easy. It has been a pleasure knowing you both and Connie- thanks for all your advice on family portraits. Keep up the good work and don't ever stop.
Leslie, I am sure when people see my physical appearance, they might still be looking for that beautiful woman,,,lol...everyday all over the world, people do good deeds for others, and they never tell, it is not uncommon, but i thank you for the public thank you...God knows you have privately thanked me a million times. the deed that i did for you,,,has come back to me many times over...Good luck with your photography career..you have the love and the talent,,,the rest is a piece of cake....surround yourself with good , positive people...and beware of the people who want to steal your joy....Your friend,,,Connie
I have known Connie on the internet for many years and have been lucky enough to have met her once in person. She is the type of person you hear about but rarely do meet. In person she radiates an inner beauty and projects a pesonality very that pleasantly relates to all she meets. It is that inner radiance that makes her stand out in a crowd. The one disagreement I have with Connie is about how she talks down her looks;(see her previous comment). And as I have told her privately and now in public; I would be proud to be seen anywhere with Connie beside me. Her photo talent is exceptional; except the one she took of me in the Crawford Coffee Station. Seriously I hace never seen a photo by Connie that was not outstanding!!!
So now that you have been exposed in public; Connie - don't change a thing about yourself.
