JUST PRETTY PICTURES
This is the little lighthouse at the entrance to Rehoboth Beach, coming in on Rehoboth Avenue. Taken two days after the storm with a beautiful sunset.

NOR 'IDA
Much beach erosion and water up to dunes and boardwalk and on highways.
There is up a 5-ft. drop at the ends of the paths from boardwalks to the beach. Rt. 1 between Dewey and Bethany was closed because sand and water was across the highway.
THIS 'N THAT

We are being kept busy with our photography. House sales are improving and this, in turn, helps our business. We do other types of photography too. You'll see here soon, two family photo shoots we did recently. We shot a fashion show that was set up as a fund raiser for cancer. We were also given the opportunity to shoot a major storm that came up the coast in November. It was called Nor'Ida--part nor'easter and part of the tropical storm, Ida. There was much coastal flooding and very much beach erosion.
The boardwalk continues to be under construction, with promises that it'll be done by tourist time.
We have spent as much time with family as we could. I guess the big event was the 6th birthday of grandson, Andrew.
We continue to enjoy our new house.

A CHILD'S LOVE
Anyone who is a grandparent knows the special joy and bond there is between a child and the grandparent. We who love them and spoil them and then send them home are blessed to be placed in our grandchildrens' lives. Today I spent the afternoon playing Uno on our screened in porch with Andrew. What a quiet, funny, enjoyable and bonding afternoon it was. Grape juice, pretzels, cards, and the cool summer air made for a wonderful time that I'll never forget. We need to treasure these times since time goes so fast. It was just the other day that this picture below was shot when Braden was just born. Now he is almost 3 1/2. Andrew and Kai are 5 1/2 and heading for kindergarten, and little Chase is 1 1/2. I don't want to miss any part of the boys' lives.
SERENDIPITY
Have you ever seen such beautiful gardens in a small restaurant in an out-of-the-way place? This restaurant is called Serendipity and is located in Oak Orchard which is about 30 minutes from Rehoboth Beach. You should really try this place. It is absolutely stunning in its decor. The inside is decorated with Japanese umbrellas hanging upside down from the ceiling. And there is color everywhere. It is located right on the water. You can walk outside and be at the bay. The food is delicious and the Maryland Crab soup is the best I've ever eaten.
BANK HARBOR
Grandchildren have a way of teaching you as much as you teach them. They open up the world to you because of their innate curiosity. Creatures in the water are wonders to be explored, touched, and talked about. We took our net to this marina today to see what we could see. Andrew and Braden were amazed at the little fish we saw called "Shiners". They are beautiful little fish which are silver on the side and when they catch the sunlight, they shine with a world of beauty. It was hard at first to get the fish in our net but they finally got the hang of it and looked at each one as if it were a treasure. And, indeed, they were treasures. Andrew liked touching them and then threw them back. He and Path are a pair because they both love exploring all that nature has to offer. Braden was like his Nana and preferred just to look. He did, however, take his turn with the net and caught a few too. We found crabs, clams, and jelly fish in the marina too.

Pray barefoot today, curling the toes and stretching heavenward. Lived with the heart of a child, each day is a whole-body celebration!

REAL ESTATE PHOTOGRAPHS OF THE WEEK
This house is in North Bethany on the beach. Quite a beauty. Notice the breakfast bar and dining room table setup. Our 5-year old grandson picked out all the colors for us. As usual, please click on each photograph to see an enlargement.
BOYS AND GIRLS CLUB
Our church, Epworth-Rehoboth Methodist, sponsors and provides the facilities for the local Boys and Girls Club. We photographed several of their events and provided them with a computer slide show. The last event we photographed was a visit by service dogs that "listen" to kids read to them. It was fun to see these kids seriously reading to them and watch the attentiveness of the dogs. Please see the slide show over at the right of these events.
PARTS MODEL
Did you know that people model just certain body parts? Well, this woman is a foot model. Please see more of our shots in the slideshow on the right.
FUNDRAISER
These are but a few of the photos we took of five beautiful women--all of whom were cancer survivors. The photos will be used for postcard invitations to a cancer fundraiser.
CINDY and PATH
Many have said, "but there are no pictures of you two!" Well, here we are on Henlopen State Park beach at sunrise.
SEE ME BEAUTIFUL PHOTOGRAHY
Do you know that we started out as See Me Beautiful Photography? We both had an interest, and, yes, a passion for taking photographs. Our work started as an outlet for our creative sides. Both of us loved taking nature photography. We'd go out to state parks, local parks, hills, valleys, woods, and gardens to photograph the color and beauty of the flowers, trees, animals, skys, and God's world all around us. We also loved taking photos of people. Both of prefer taking candids of "moments in time", but will also find it interesting to do a posed sitting.
While we lived in Pennsylvania, we exhibited our work in several shows. We, also, sold our work in a shop in Williamsport, PA, and continue to sell some things in "The Artisan's Shoppe" in Wellsboro, PA. When we came to Rehoboth Beach, we first thought of using these talents to sell our work in local shops and/or take beach photography. Before too much time went by, Path, who is a REALTOR with Ocean Atlantic/Sothebys, saw a need for good photography for the real estate market around the area. This led to a division of See Me Beautiful Photography--SMB Real Estate Photography.
We hope to show you by the many different photos we include in our blog, how you could use our services too. We are much more than just a real estate photography business. We'd love to help you capture your "moments in time" too.
