This past August in the middle of my absolutely insane travels..... I came home to a TON of mail, and THIS tiny envelope was waiting in between 100 magazines. It was from a random deaf artist I knew from my Gallaudet days. We know the "same people" around..... and I just thought it was so sweet!
What, you ask......
THIS!
Inside the envelope was this "cards holder" that Shandella makes ~ I'm so flattered she'd make one for me. And I'm even more flattered that the cards holder IS exactly what my personality is, exactly what people who know me would use to describe my outlook onlife... just exactly spot on!
the other side
I will always treasure this! It's always on my desk just to remind me life is short. Even though I'm getting more wrapped up in this business aspect of my photography business - I need to always remember WHAT I love about my art, what I want to DO to produce more, and to live life to its fullest!
Thank you Shandella!

I received a cool honor from the Greater Baton Rouge Business Report a few weeks ago. I was selected as one of their 40 Under 40 in this area of Louisiana! It's definitely been a flattering year for me! The Purple Trailblazer campaign, winning it, being in 225 magazine, the local papers, and now this Business Report deal! AWESOME. When it rains, it definitely pours for me!
Again, I do not take anything about my job for granted - I am so appreciative that I love my job, much less HAVE one also! I am flattered that this group of highly esteemed people consider me worthy of this category of people.
I look forward to the dinner event they're having for us on December 3rd! Sarah, my parents, and in laws will be in company with me - we don't get to do that often enough so it'll be nice!
Here's a couple snapshots of the magazine for you to get the idea of what it looks like (and I will also attach the link to the online site so you can read it up close if you haven't yet/if you're even interested!).

Click on this link to see LSD's formal thanks for the 11k win from the Purple Trailblazer campaign that I was involved in!
Also something cute was done by a good friend of mine, Rebecca Reed, this morning at LSD as well. Our friend, Mandaree, who teaches at the school for the deaf just got engaged the other day (CONGRATS MANDAREE & STEVEN!) and Rebecca/and some other teachers pitched in for a gift certificate for a Tate Tullier Photography session!
Here's what was inside the card given to Mandaree - I just thought it was such creative writing and of course, flattering!
I thought this might brighten your day... the gift of Tate always puts a smile on someone's face - time to return the favor!
This is what the card we gave her said:
Bling! Bling! You got the ring!
And now there's just one more thing...
You've got the dude, you've got the date,
All that's left is to get shot by Tate!
Wake up early Saturday with minimal fuss,
and enjoy your engagement shoot on us!
Love of love,
(a bunch of us)

Before we did the photo session in LA this past July, he had told me he got engaged to the gorgeous Lisa from Florida so of course, for him helping me out with the spread again.... I wanted to do them a fun favor and do some engagement/hot modeling shots for them. I'm very excited for them.
I love love their chemistry. It's so apparent they're in some serious love.
