 sparkly earrings

 This pendant lamp is totally A-Mazing!

 Such a sweet print from the same people who designed our wedding invitations (love them!)

 Can't get enough succulents - especially in this cute cement pot!

 These simple and classic handbags are my favorite.

We have Peaches!

This week has been so very busy. I have a ton of editing to catch up on after an impromptu trip to the Lake last week! I've been gearing up for my big trip to Chicago  (22 days!) and have been using whatever free time I have to take some photos of what's happening in our garden. Our new place has this amazing peach tree in the backyard and we've been waiting all summer for the peaches to ripen. Unfortunately between the squirrels and our "peach bandit" we haven't actually been able to enjoy any peaches yet...

The beautiful peaches in our peach tree.

I love waking up to this warm summer light every morning :)

Elvis on the other hand is less enthusiastic...

The "Peach Bandit" caught in the act!

Recent Work: Max

 Max was born cool. He's got super cool parents, super cool hair, and super cool clothes (He wore baby jeans and a sleeveless white shirt to our shoot). I've had the pleasure of knowing Max's mom Rebecca for the past 7 years, and was so excited when she asked me to take his newborn photos. Aside from being one of the coolest babies in town, Max is a total sweetheart. With his big brown eyes and curly dark hair he just melts my heart. Congrats Rebecca and Herb (and congrats Max for being born into such a fun family!) Enjoy...

BLOGSHOP = SO EXCITED!

I just booked my trip to Chicago for this! I cannot wait :) Expect to see some big changes here on the blog when I return.

It's hosted by Bri who writes one of my favorite daily reads DesignLoveFest, as well as Angela who takes amazing and inspiring photographs. Check it out!

Recent Work: Twins!

What a lovely weekend it was! I spent my weekend taking photos and doing some much needed landscaping (despite the insane heat we survived!) Saturday I started out my morning with a long walk to downtown Webster with Tim and the dogs. We're loving our new neighborhood and its walkability (Tim says he feels very European since we can walk to the Bread Company, lol). After that I headed right across the street to shoot a family session with Jenny and Guy and their one-year-old twins. These kids are seriously adorable! Shooting twins is always exciting because it's so neat to see them interact and capture their little personalities on camera. They had the cutest expressions, which made my job very easy! Enjoy...

 

Recent Work: A Jumble of Projects + Happy Weekend!

What is everyone up to this weekend? We have a landscaping extravaganza planned for Sunday that I am not super excited about... I'm sure I will be glad when it's done, but I REALLY don't want to spend my entire day in the heat (it's supposed to get up to 95!). I've been super busy this week planning some exciting upcoming projects that I can't wait to share, but for now I'll leave you with a few personal images from the last few weeks...

 Elisa + I in Tin City 

 New project perhaps??

Last weeks photoshoot :)

Love Etc.

Doesn't this movie look fantastic? Just watching the trailer made me tear up!

"To me, photography is an art of observation. It's about finding something interesting in an ordinary place... I've found it has little to do with the things you see and everything to do with the way you see them."
