Welcoming 2012 with a grateful heart.

Happy New Year!!!  Wow!  What an amazing hear I had!  Oh sure, it started off with a doozy of a winter and an unplanned 2 month hiatus as I became a full-time nurse to Doug after his accident, but professionally, 2011 was my greatest year ever!  So I never got around to building my mobile...

The Boutique Studio ~ A Grand Opening Celebration!

Nothing like a few setbacks to make a Grand Opening celebration all the sweeter!  I had originally intended on a Spring opening…you know…just before the busy season.  Yes, that would have been perfect.  But God had other plans.  As if 400% snowfall at 6,100 ft. weren’t enough…I dropped everything for months (namely my business), when...

50th Wedding Anniversary & Family Reunion ~ Susann Saarel Photography

I got the call just days before.  Poor Becky had been laid up recovering from knee surgery when it suddenly occurred to her she hadn’t hired a photographer to document the momentous occasion of her parent’s 50th wedding anniversary and  family reunion at Chico Hot Springs Lodge.  Far be it from me to say I’m...
