… I like to try to take self-portrait

Snippet and Ink Inspiration Boards - I love love love these… dig through them and find your perfect colors/theme. I wish I had 5 or 6 parties to plan just to use these This gorgeous shot - eye candy+pampering A wedding in London by 39 East Photography - omg I LOVE these...

I’ve had an idea recently for another option for a wedding venue - a private home. At VRBO.com (stands for Vacation Rental By Owner) you can find a wide spectrum of different home types for short-term rental (from 1 night to a week+)...

The final bit of my afternoon with this sweet family. Out on their street…. just doing what they do. I love to capture families AS THEY ARE… rather than all wearing pretty clothes, standing stiffly, smiling at the camera but otherwise acting unnaturally...

Rachel Denbow (aka Bling on My Sewing Machine)’s amazing house - I can only wish I had such style Bridal showers - thinking about decor and favors and fun details for a couple bridal showers. I love weddings. Project Wedding - another great wedding resource. Can’t wait to explore a bit more...

A few more of this family just hanging out and being together … You can just tell they make each other laugh … so fun. (the last one is one of my favorites!)

Remember, a few weeks ago when I decided to give away a free portrait session? Well, some friends of the family (Dave and Jenni) won and I spent a Sunday afternoon with their family not too long ago … We pretty much just played for a bit in and around their house...

Wedding on a glacier in Alaska? Gorgeous All sorts of images (old and otherwise) available at Flickr.com - so many archives to dig through and pull inspiration from. New furniture - Since we got married, Andrew and I have been sleeping on an old handmedown King mattress on the ground (no bedframe)...

My sister-in-law Kaitlin got engaged Friday night … her and Joe have been together for almost 5 years already and we are all soo excited to really have him as part of the family now. Now I get to help plan a beach wedding for next summer sometime … so excited...

I wanted to wrap up my England pics with some images of where I stayed … Miranda’s dorm - Founder’s Hall at Royal Holloway - is Old. … it is an old old building. The building, I believe, was originally the only building for the university …. mid-late nineteenth century...

My last full day in England we went to London again … Walked out of Waterloo train station …. (I think) we crossed the street and were walking straight toward the London Eye. … Pretty impressive in person...

Creative wedding venues - How gorgeous would your event look here? Milestones - Andrew got his very first engineering credit last week … on the new Green Day album. Pretty cool Days off - especially in springtime. with Andrew...

The longer I live in Southern California, the more I find venues and vendors that I wish I could have used for my own wedding. I might just have to throw us a few fabulous anniversary parties over the years to take advantage...

my husband - he’s an audio engineer and ALWAYS up to something cool buying a piano - not soon, but someday. I want to write at least 1 song in my life...

On the way home from Moreton-in-Marsh (see yesterday’s post) we had to change trains in Reading … while there, we had a couple minutes, so got some Burger King (don’t judge, it was the only thing open IN the train station on a Sunday night) and once we got on the next train we were pretty...

The second full day I was in England, we went to Moreton-in-Marsh - a town in the Cotswolds, to the North West of London. This was Sunday, and I had wanted a more low-key day to break up our 2 busy days in London...

change - critical thinking and being open Seeing the Everyday - just the fact that this new mag has no ads is beautiful being a tourist in my home town planning trips somebody else’s success - my cousin just won a poetry contest. So cool

I went to England. Just for a few days, but I took so so so many photos… wanna see some? I’ll try to break this down as best I can … but there ARE a lot of photos in this post. You’ve been warned...

[necessary background: Andrew and I currently live in a bedroom at my in-laws house...

self education - my list (for personal and business education) is never-ending. Going to England with all that history everywhere only made it worse. People who believe in themselves despite any obstacles (real or perceived) The Art of Nonconformity - travel, working for yourself, etc...

Sunday night I went over to take some family photos of Dave and Jenni and their kids. Chaos. No, of course I’m kidding. But it was so so fun. Here’s just a sneak pe

So, I’ve been doing a lot of reading lately. I just finished Fast Track Photographer (the first of what will likely be many reads), I’m reading Your Money or Your Life now (again, the first of many reads)...
