Photo Friday



Along with reading books, going to school, and being a new mom, I also work as a photographer and model for Moonstruck Media Photography.  I try to get in a photo shoot every week because we have A LOT of people that want to come do sessions with us!  This last Saturday I was able to go out with one of our couples and do a shoot in the forest.  Here are some of my favorite shots!




We were out by Mogollon Rim here in Arizona.  It was windy, cold, snowing at times, and muddy.  I, of course, forgot my snow stuff and was out walking around in all that in ballet flats.  Our guy model actually said "I would not want to be wearing those shoes right now!"

The models did great though, as you can tell!  I only took a little over 170 frames, a very small amount compared to other shoots, but almost all of them were awesome :) 

Tomorrow we're heading up to Flagstaff with four girls to do a special shoot, which we're all very excited about.  Hopefully, next week's Photo Friday will feature some of those pictures :)

Thought Bubble Thursday!



It's time for another Thought Bubble Thursday! Have you ever seen a perfectly dreadful cover and wondered "What were they thinking?!" Well here's your chance to find out!  Everyone knows that you shouldn't judge a book by it's cover, including the one's that you're about to see.  Who knows, the stories behind these covers might be the best book ever written!  So, keeping in mind the author's hard work and their feelings about their story, here a few covers that may be a little bit lacking in the "awesome" category :)







Waiting on Wednesday #1



"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Breaking The Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.


This week's selection is:
Forget Me Not (Mystic Wolves #4) by Belinda Boring

A new arrival sends accusations flying, testing the friendships of many within the Pack.

Forget Me Not is the highly anticipated fourth novel in the Mystic Wolves series. Coming soon in early January 2012.




I've been ready to edit Belinda's next book since I finished her last one, haha!  I hope she finishes soon so I don't have to wait much longer :)

Teaser Tuesday #2



Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. Anyone can play along! Just do the following:

• Grab your current read
• Open to a random page
• Share two (2) “teaser” sentences from somewhere on that page
BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! (make sure that what you share doesn’t give too much away! You don’t want to ruin the book for others!)
• Share the title & author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!

Thought Bubble Thursday!


Welcome to Midnight Magic's first ever Thought Bubble Thursday!  This is the day that we all get to laugh over some romance covers.  The stories behind them maybe fantastic for all we know (don't judge a book by it's cover!) but the cover probably could have been thought trough a little bit better.  We all know that authors work very hard and we don't want to hurt any of thier feelings, this is just for fun, so enjoy!






Teaser Tuesday #1

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. Anyone can play along!


   "Free will.  Some have called it the greatest gift bestowed on humanity.  It is our ability to control what happens to us and exactly how it happens.  We are the masters of our fate and no one can foist their will on us unless we allow it.
   Others say free will is a crap myth."

                           -Infinity by Sherrilyn Kenyon


So far, I like it!  

Music Monday #1




Welcome to Midnight Magic's first ever Music Monday!  I explain mostly what Music Monday is in the video but the short version is this: I like music.  Writing it, playing it, singing it, listening to it, I just like it!  And this is my way of sharing another one of my loves with you :)
