It can be this simple {Personal}



I love argyle. Always have, always will. It's classic, yet outgoing, yet trendy, all at the same time. I have an argyle purse, argyle socks, sweaters, pens, T-shirts... When people ask me what to get for my birthday or Christmas I reply by saying "If it's argyle, i'll love it." Reason #16 why I have the best clients ever, they gifted me with an argyle umbrella, because they just know me that well. :D

I love dancing. I like to think that I can, but really, I can't. But that's not gonna stop me from dancing in the street with snow pouring down.

I love bursts of color.
Photobucket

I love looking up at God with gratitude.

I love my new red hat. My red hat that my amazing friend made for me. I love that my new red hat just happens to match my new red scarf even though I didn't buy them together. I love red in snow.
Photobucket

I love saying "Wa bam". It's my new favorite word. When i'm on shoots i'll make sound affects for my camera like "Wa bam" and "Wa chaaa!" This, is a wa bam picture. :D

I love snow.

I love over exposed pictures.

Snow {Julie}

We got snow today!! :D Which I love. (And not just because it canceled FCC, though that was a plus. ;P) I love snow because the whole world just becomes Narnia to me, and everything is so still and peaceful. :)

I posted on my facebook status about offering a free photoshoot to celebrate this wondrous stuff, and Julie said she could make it! :D I've been dying to do some pictures in the road with the snow covered trees framing the faces. :) Most of time was spent racing in and out of the streets and me sliding all over the place, but ya know, it was fun. :D

"Go frolic in the snow!" hehe :D

I've also had this daisy umbrella that i've been dying to use at a shoot to bring a burst of color. Nothing needs more color then a white blanket of snow! :)

Christina & Rachael {Portrait session}

Back in November I got to celebrate Christina's sweet 16 in PA! I seriously love Pennsylvania. You walk outside and there's an awesome corn field or open field right by your house. Love! The sun was setting and I was all "Guys, we're loosing the sun, it's gonna be gone in 15 minutes" so we rushed outside and did a quick shoot. Rachael is no stranger to the blog, but now you get to meet Christina!

Photobucket
And yes, that's pretty much Christina in a picture. ;) haha

"Stina" or "Nina" as I like to call her is stinkin' hilarious and I love her to death. :)
Photobucket

Let's just take a second to say that this was her testing the lighting shot. Yeahhh girl. :D

Photobucket
{The next day} See what I mean about the corn fields?

"The hills are alive with the sound of musssic!" Oh, I just couldn't resist. ;)
Photobucket

This is my dear Rachael, who is rocking the sun flare pictures, which if you asked her, she would tell you my love of them. ;)
Photobucket

In case you were wondering how we got these laughing pictures, Christina had this thing where she would sing these crazy songs as I shot, and when it was Nina's turn Rachael would do these hilarious things. It was pretty great. :D
Photobucket

This is her sick face. I got that same cold over Thanksgiving (yeah, thanks for that, woman. ;P) and let's just say I looked nothing like that. ;)
Photobucket

Photobucket

Stina girl, I love you so. Thank you that amazing scrap book on my birthday, I love it a lot. And i'm so very grateful for you. 16 looks awesome on you. :D

{Side note, the new blog design is coming along nicely! Can't wait to get it up and running. :D)

Stay Beautiful,
