Lauren + Brandon

Carolyn + Ryan are married!

Wedding was this past Saturday and so I’m here to share a few of my favorite images…

PS – Yes, I’m here; I DID come home from New York.    We’ve just been swamped lately but many MANY surprises to come!

Mother/Daughter Bridal Show & AWESOME Saturday afternoon fun! Plus we are giving away $10,000 worth of sessions/gift cards!

Hands down THE biggest giveaway we have EVER done!!!  We will be giving out special cards worth a FREE engagement session OR $100 towards wall portraits to the FIRST 100 who come see us at the show!  AND, if that’s not enough, we’re also giving an awesome door prize – and so are the OTHER 10 vendors!  Listen for the radio announcement next week, or pick up a Jumbalaya issue and check out the back cover!

A GREAT way to spend a Saturday afternoon with your mom or daughter!

See you there!

Parker update!

When everyone told me the infamous line, “They grow up so fast”, I believed them!  But NEVER thought it would happen this fast!  I came across his little onsie he wore in the hospital and couldn’t believe he was that tiny only a few months ago!    My big boy.

We’re heading out the door to go clothes shopping for “Mommy”.    Not very excited.  (It always seems exciting and fun when you think about it, but once you’re in the dressing room with one hook full of 15 things that look TERRIBLE, and another empty ”thumbs up” hook, you realize this stinks!)  Well, I’ve lost an amazing TWENTY FOUR POUNDS since February.  Everyone “claimed” you couldn’t even TELL I was at 160 then, but I definately could!  I gained a whopping 50 total lbs from being preggo, and thankfully I’m only 7 pounds away from my original pre-preggo weight!  So, with Adam and I spending a week in NYC (leaving in SEVEN DAYS – omg.), I knew I’ve put off clothes shopping long enough.  Today’s the day.  :\

And just incase you forgot how tiny “da boy” was, here’s a reminder.  (@ 18 days)

And as a bonus, I grabbed the “real” camera (instead of the iphone) last night for a few minutes to get some precious pics of “the boy” playing in his Bumbo.  He loves that thing!  And I love it too – he’ll be sitting up in no time. 

Playing with a new toy him and Mommy picked out the other day. 

Curious about the “clicking” sound of the shutter.  So cute.

That’s my boy.

And lastly, playing with his little piggie toy – it’s a constant goal of his to get it to the back of his mouth.  Thankfully, he has lost every time (so far)!

And lastly – do not EVER say “my living room won’t look like THAT when I have kids!”  Believe me.  You will be eating your words when your time comes.  lol  (And it’s actually pretty simple to pick up – swing and jumpy thing collapse and slide under beds and we just put all his toys in his Bumbo and cap it with the tray.  Slide that sucker right under the coffee table and VOILA!  You can see the rug again!)

Brooke + AP – engagement

 

Brooke & AP were AMAZING!  We had so much fun, despite my constant sniffles.    Thank you, guys, for being so great and understanding with your sick little photographer that day.   

We met at a gorgeous ranch and really made the most of the beautiful weather.  The wind was a LITTLE on the STRONG side that afternoon, but the day still made for great images.

We’re out the door for a little family portrait!
