Fab Fridays | busy, busy, busy...

Weddings and newborns and holiday sessions and senior sessions... and some little league baseball to boot.   Yes indeedy, it's been a whirlwind two weeks! But I'm really looking forward to the upcoming holiday for a little R&R with the fam. Hopefully, I can squeeze in some time to continue my blogging catch up, too. :)

In the meantime, wanted to share this lovely little fashion find. A couple weeks ago I blogged about this fabulous faux fur coat I found at a church rummage sale for a whopping $5. Well, I found this little beauty there, too...

Yes, this is a REAL leather motor jacket. Price tag on this fab find: $5.  Can I get an amen?!!!

Ironically, I had been searching for a reasonably-priced jacket like this for weeks and had come to the painful conclusion that I would have to part with at least 100 of my hard-earned dollars to find something like this. So imagine my surprise when on the rummage sale rack I find this little gem. Fate? Why yes, I do believe so... clearly, we were meant for each other. :)

Have a FABULOUS weekend!

Kara & CJ | wedding at inside the bungalow

Earlier this year I had the honor of photographing Kara and CJ's wedding in Mesa, Arizona. The venue, Inside the Bungalow, was absolutely perfect and enhanced the close, intimate feel of the entire evening. The ceremony was so moving, especially the exchange of rings where they included their young daughter, Grace. The day was filled with laughter, tears of joy, hugs, smiles, fun and so much love. CONGRATULATIONS to the happy couple!

A huge shout out to my two fabulous sidekicks for the day, Monica of Monica Stanley Photography and Lynn of Lynn Indrizzo Photography. You ladies are a dream to work with and so so talented. Thank you!!

Long overdue in sharing pics of this sweet baby girl... petite, angelic and the perfect little poser. Congrats to Courtney and Rob on your new addition! And to her Auntie Jess back in KS, I hope you love the pics of your new niece. ;)

Wish me luck!!

As the proud owner of the Bohemian Symphony Collection, I have the opportunity to enter a giveaway for a free iPad! Oh, I can't tell you how much a new little iPad would help me with all of my photography stuff. Oh So Posh Photography is the creative force behind this action set and the host of the iPad giveaway. Below are just a few of the before and afters of a recent photo shoot. What I love about this action set is they take your sterile raw images and give them a beautiful warmth and glow. Absolutely love this product and would highly recommend for all you photo enthusiasts who like to play with your images in Photoshop. :)

Silhouette

I am a member of the Rock the Shot Forum (http://www.rocktheshotforum.com/) - a great resource for photographers. This month their photo challenge is silhouettes. The picture below was taken during my photo shoot with Nathan and Ashley. I love that it captures the beautiful colors of our Arizona sunset as well as a sweet, intimate moment between this couple. Definitely one of my favorite silhouettes to date!
