it’s the little things…

I'm a bit goofy and always ready to have a good time - I love making clients laugh...it just so happens it's usually at me and some random thing I am doing to get "the shot" - If it's nice outside, I guarantee I will be found sitting in a patch of sunlight soaking in the rays - I tend to miss speak right when I am trying to be sassy, ... so I just end up sounding silly - I love all the noises a new baby makes be it cute or gross - My socks never match and I am proud of it - I avoid cleaning the bathroom like it's the plague. It comes from growing up with two brothers and always being on bathroom duty - I found out the hard way that garlic does NOT compliment everything... and now my husband doesn't let me in the kitchen unsupervised - I still get giddy and jittery before every wedding I photograph - I once thought the biggest gift of being self employed was making my own hours, now I know it's the luxury it gives me to raise my son (born April 2011) without the need of daycare - I love riding my bike, but don't have the constitution to make myself work out regularly - I believe that following your dream is not the easiest path but is definitely the most rewarding one. My dreams since I was 18 was to find the man of my dreams (check), raise a family (check) and create images for a living (check) - oh... and if you want to make me laugh, tell me a poop joke. Works EVERY time.

Ravishing Radish Event

Posted in the events No comments

Last night I participated in a event put on by the wonderful girls at Ravishing Radish . Just about every month, Ravishing Radish invites all of their clients and prospective clients to partake in a tasting of some of their fabulous foods. The great thing, is that the girls at Ravishing Radish invite other wedding professionals to come and show their work also. This way, brides can come and see a sampling of the different vendors here in Seattle while eating some fabulous food (which those crab cakes were to die for!!), and last night I was the photographer in the house!

Silly me, I didn’t think to bring my nice camera to the event and only had my point and shoot to take some photos, but I am going to share them anyway.

re_090225_02145 This was my table showing off my book, my sample guest book and different images.

Next to me was Izzy Girl. Janet from Izzy Girl makes the most amazing invitations. You can tell just by looking at the samples that the eye she has for detail and design is outstanding!

re_090225_02166 The music for the night was DJ’d by DJ Tecumseh from Bamboo Beats . They are Seattle’s first eco-friendly DJ! Check out their site for more info

And sadley, I didn’t get a photo of this vendor, but Melissa from Terra Bella Flowers and Mercantile were also there. I believe she did all the arrangements on the food tables along with her own display. They were beautiful!

I had a great time there last night and look forward to what might come in the future! I know I’ll bring my “real” camera next time for sure!!
