  • 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.

Splendid Details: Being a Giver

Last night I volunteered at the 2nd annual Get Hitched Give Hope . This is an event  that brings brides in to get amazing deals from wedding vendors while helping out people with stage 4 breast cancer. I am proud to be able to help with GHGH because of all the love and care and awesomeness that people put into this event. And ALL proceeds to this event go to the last wish of a woman with terminal breast cancer! The ladies (and one token dude) that put this on do it on a 100% volunteer basis while running their own small businesses… and trust me, I’ve seen what these gals do and it is in itself a full time job!

This event is put on by some of my friends and I just have to say that it is amazing to see what people can do when they put their hearts and energy out there!

So my thanks go out to  Eliza, Laurel, Barbie, Wendi, Michelle, Holly-Kate, Shannon, and the token dude… Ryan.

Thanks so much for putting on such an amazing event that can change the final days of some woman’s lives. You all are rockstars!!!!!

And all you brides should keep your eyes out for next years event! It is usually in late October, and I can already say I’ll be there next year too!
