Mr. Nussbaum, a 6th grade teacher in the Fairfax County Public Schools, shares this image and explains the idiom of how “time flies” means that time goes by very quickly, and I couldn’t think of a better way to sum up this past month.

- Having worked with children for years now – initially as an first grade teacher and then as a portrait and event photographer – I know one thing for sure. I know that all the children I have ever met have a song in their hearts.

- On this Wedding Wednesday, I am so grateful for the clients who book me to capture their once-in-a-lifetime events. Working with this dynamic group of women, I was so impressed by their sense of family and friendship.
