Welcome to my blog - it's here that I share some of my most recent work - be sure to check back often!! Kathleen Chapman Photography specializes in child and family photography in the North Country NY counties of Franklin and St.Lawrence in locations such as St. Regis Falls, Brushton, Malone, Massena and Potsdam. I offer studio and on location sessions designed to meet your creative vision!!
Wow - can't believe another month has flown by despite the Covid 19 quarantine. I started making facial masks on Palm Sunday and ended the month breaking the 200 mark - wow - I think I can make these in my sleep at this point lol!! We purchased some baby chicks and are looking forward to fresh eggs hopefully at the end of the summer. It's finally feeling like spring and I've been enjoying getting outside to walk and hang clothes on the line to dry. I took part in photography challenge where were to replicate an old painting - the picture with the flowers on my dress was my interpretation of a painting I liked. Rick helped over to Amanda's place leveling out their yard to get it ready for grass seed and transplanted some raspberry bushes as well. I picked rocks in the back portion of our property with the hopes of a beautiful sunflower field later this summer (if all goes well). Looking forward to the loosening of Covid 19 restrictions in NY in the months to follow and a drastic decrease in cases and deaths around the world!!

March just flew by! We experienced the spread of the Coronavirus (Covid 19) and the implementation of social distancing. We stocked up on supplies and food and were lucky to get toilet paper and lisol wipes before the shelves went bare. I celebrated my 60th birthday quietly and missed getting everybody together. So strange to watch church online but grateful for the technology to do so. Apprehensive and concerned for what lies ahead for April but praying for all those affected, for those on the front lines caring for the sick and those doing the jobs to keep our country functioning. I watched the TV benefit concert and this line from Alicia Keys performance eerily lingers on my mind - ..."people on the front line knowing they don't get to run...." - WOW!!

Another month has just flown by!! I love the contrast this month of North Country snow vs. Bermuda beach pictures!! We had a great trip to Bermuda - so many great memories with Beck and Rick, delicious food and the most amazing water I've ever seen - we can't wait to go back!!

I've challenged myself to a 2020 366 project. A picture for each day of the year to document our journey through the 1st year of this new decade!!
During January I loved taking pictures of our Christmas tree, snow, precious grandkids, tried out my new Mavic Mini drone, enjoyed decorating my office with some new furniture, took the winter picture of our new season series, began packing for Bermuda, said goodbye to my Canon camera and switched to Sony and celebrated Myla turning 5 - it was a great month!!
