I am so excited to unveil the re-designed Polka Photos website with all new photo galleries.

Going back through all the weddings I’ve photographed these past few years has been a sentimental journey for me. I remember every wedding like it was yesterday. Dear brides and grooms: I remember the excitement as you got ready, I remember the smiles each of you had right after the first kiss, I remember the tears you wiped away when emotion overwhelmed you. I thank each of you for allowing me to be a part of your day.

A new addition is the family portraits gallery. I love meeting all your little ones – whether you were a wedding client or I’m meeting you for the first time. Your children are not only adorable, but they’re wonderfully silly and sweet. I still have a pear sticker on my camera strap given to me by 4-year-old Logan who told me that it’s so I don’t forget him.

There are also some new features on the blog. It’s now even easier to follow the blog through RSS feeds, facebook or blogspot. There’s also a button below each post if anyone wants to post on fb, twitter, her own blog or email.

Huuuuuuuge thank you to Michael of SurfMonkey Designs for designing this new website. Thank you for believing in me as my husband and for putting up with me as your client. You are truly a man of many talents, as well as the patience to put up with me.

And a big thanks to Melanie Hooyenga for designing the awesome Polka Photos logo. I’ve been using it on my blog for months and now it’s part of the new header!

So go check out the site and let me know what you think!
