New Business Cards! And Stickers! Excitement!

//If you're looking for my most recent wedding or engagement work, click here!!\\

I am so so so so so excited you guys! I've had these cards for less than a week and I think I've already handed like 50 of them out. With the launch of my new website, I am thrilled to have business cards and stickers to match! They're all the same gray and white stripe with my pretty new logo on one side, and then I have a slew of different pictures on the other side :-)

I also ordered stickers, which you can expect to see all over everything you get from me now!!

This weekend I have meetings with three brides and an engagement session! What are you up to?

Just Playing Around

//If you're looking for my most recent wedding or engagement work, click here!!\\

I'm really excited to share the latest addition to my gear! If you know me in person you've probably heard me talk about it... I call her "the butter lens" because she makes you look AWESOME. I've rented her before, you've seen pictures of Erin from her wedding and Hollyn and Matt recently from their engagement pictures :-) It's pretty heavy...and a pretty penny but I just dove in and am STOKED to show you all what she can really do!

For today though...this is so silly...I'm kind of embarrassed to share these with you guys. When I got my first DSLR I took a LOT of silly pictures of myself holding my camera.... I totally reverted immediately back as soon as I took this baby out of the box last night.

Okay prepare to laugh:

And yes, that is totally Wil's dry cleaning in the closet. I'm shooting in aperture priority at F1.2 at our closet mirror with the door half open to reveal clothes (that part was not intentional)

Love Languages and My Love of ONA Bags Continues

//If you're looking for my most recent wedding or engagement work, click here!!\\

My mother told me that while dating you love your partner in a million ways, with your love languages and theirs. Then, she said, after you get married, you revert to your most core language. If this is gibberish to you, go read this book (it applies to all of your relationships, not just romantic ones). Otherwise, keep tracking with me here.

So, I guess what I'm trying to say that I've realized is that one my most basic, core love languages is gift giving. I love it. I love blessing people with small (or big) surprises. But really I love it when they then feel loved because I've given them something.

Gift giving is definitely not one of Wil's primary love languages, but he wanted this particular item so I'm pretty sure it worked out in my favor to give it to him. Please don't get me wrong, we don't have the kind of money to shower each other presents, and that's not what this is about anyway, normally we show each other love through quality time :-) so this was a fun little surprise...

If you've been around for a while, you remember my bag lust over this [ONA] bag. Gah. She still kills me. Anyway, Wil was in need of a new office/work bag. I took this opportunity to get him an awesome camera/laptop bag so he can use it when he works with me too ;-) Clever, I know. Anyway, I'm pretty much in love with it and might have to borrow it sometime. Until then, I think he's pretty excited...
