My favorite things...

Wow, it's been a while. I've needed the rest and it has lovely to. SO much has taken place over the past month that my head is still spinning! God is so good.

I will spare you the details but the big news is that I am now officially a FULL-TIME photographer. For the first time in my life, I can say that I love my job. It is seriously a dream come true. My to-do list is infinite and my calendar is dizzying but I am enamored with every bit of it. I can't wait to share with you the images of each of the amazing people I am working with. Shooting like crazy this week so stay tuned. 

So as a result of all of that, I have been able spend a little more time with my friends and family and bask a bit in the beauty of how blessed I am. I have also made a personal promise that I will get on the ball with taking pictures of my own life as I am incredibly thankful for those in it and  I want to capture them like I do my clients.

So as a start, I wanted to share with you (in no particular) a few of my favorite things lately. 

I love getting personal mail. It's the best feeling. The card in this pic came from Diane, a bride of mine whose wedding is this month. I wasn't feeling well and she totally made my day by sending me that card! This girl is a gem and I have a ton of pics on the way from her engagement shoot and bridal shower yesterday! To throw in a few more favorite things, those are my college room-mates on the left and the girl in black is Halle - tomorrow is her birthday! On her right is Kelly and she's expecting her first little girl this year! Joy on the end is next for sure. On the bottom is Melissa, the undisputed best sister in the world. Then of course my favrorite thing of all, my husband Dave. That's an old pic of him but I love it. I love him. 

I had a super-busy day yesterday with two shoots and a big ol' trip to Ikea. I was gone for like 16 hours and came home exhausted to find these from Dave on the table. Just because he know I'd had a long day. And yes, those are starfish S&P shakers and they are from that best sister in the world.

This is my mom. We snapped this yesterday during my crazy day of shoots and travels. We've been able to spend some great time together lately and I have been so thankful for it. 

So happy Sunday. Thanks for letting me share. I've enjoyed it. Maybe I'll share some more favorites next sunday. 

Stay tuned for some crazy session posting this week.
