Audrey {1 Year Old Portraits}

Look who turned one! Audrey did! She may look familiar because I did a family session back in November of her family, but we wanted to make sure we set aside some time to do some specific one year old portraits of Audrey.

Audrey has been walking since before she even turned one, and by now she is an old pro! She was on the go during her session which was a challenge, but still fun because we got to take pictures in lot of different spots! Nobody covers ground like a one year old with lots of energy! :)

One of the cutest things during the session is that she wanted to be everywhere her big sister, Margaret was. I sure wouldn't mind a little sister with this adorable face chasing me around! ;)



A quick smile at the camera...


And she's off! :)


When you're one, sticks are great for eating!


Audrey's sister, Margaret's nickname is Monkey... I think Audrey may be giving Margaret a run for her money for that nickname in this picture!




How does someone looks so stinkin cute just standing there on a tree trunk? Oh, that's right, it's cause she is stinkin cute!


We tried for some shots in the grass but Audrey wasn't much of a fan. She was ready for the grand finale...




She is a cupcake fan... a girl after my own heart! :)


Happy Birthday Audrey!!

Kirsty {Vacaville photoshoot}


Kirsty & I had a fun time doing a photoshoot, just her & I. It was perfect - an afternoon at the park, great weather, taking pictures, and time with a friend! Can't ask for much more than that :)





Kirsty you look gorgeous in purple!








Loved this flower ~ it even matched Kirsty's outfit!






One of my favorite shots! :)



Kirsty & I are planning on spending more time together doing photoshoots for fun, can't wait. She just got a brand spankin' new Canon DSLR & setup a blog of her own! Check it out HERE!

These are a few of my favorite things.... {Post I}



You know the song! Everything rhymes & is so sing-able. Well, I'm not even going to attempt to make my favorite things into something lyrical, but I hope you enjoy nonetheless! :)


House Hunters International

Love this show! So I never see myself becoming a realtor, but I do think it would be a blast seeing all sorts of homes. Especialy ones with character! :) Which is probably why I love this HGTV show so much! Basically the show takes you on someone's search for a new home. On each episode you see three of their options. At the end of the show they reveal which one they pick. Sometimes I can easily figure out which house they will choose (or at least that I would choose...) but other times it's really strange what they pick, haha! What also makes it interesting are all the different locations the house hunting is happening in and how much housing varies from country to country! I've decided I love the style of Norwegian houses but I'm not a fan of the houses in Jamaica! Now if only the two countries could swap weather I would be set! ;) Speaking of house hunting.... I'm on the hunt myself! More on that later! :)


Urban Outfitters Furniture

Gah, I love this stuff. I want NEED to have it. ;) This alone has made me setup a furniture fund at my bank. I can't wait until I have a little house to fill with this sort of amazing furniture!



Craigslist "Free Stuff"

Do you ever read these ads on Craigslist? They are an amazing source of entertainment. And budget friendly too... because if you ever found something you HAD to have, at least it would be free! ;) But seriously... some of the stuff on there is just beyond me. For example here are some recent post near me...

Post title: Free meat locker!!!! Pick up NOW
I have a 12 x 8 meat locker in sacramento in good shape that I will give away to a good home, if you will come take it now. You will need a flatbed. If it is not gone by the end of the week I will domilish it."

Sheesh, rather demanding, aren't they! I’m glad they are only going to give it away to a good home, there’s no telling what a bad home would do with a meat locker… CREEPY!


Post title: More astronaut undies
I found about 150 more adult diapers size XS (waist 18-26 inches). Still sealed in original packages. Free to whoever gets them first. They’ll be waiting at the end of the driveway.

Wow, not everyday you randomly find that many diapers. Let alone size XS.


Post title: Free Plant
Free plant to a good home.
Name: Lani (she gave it to me).
Species: unknown.
Watered regularly, mostly by Julie to prevent sure death.
Interested parties inquire at the office between Jim and Ralph's before 4pm.


Gotta be fake.... Right?

I am so excited about this BRAND SPANKIN NEW wedding shop that has stemmed off from the ever so fabulous Anthropologie. (Pronounced Beholden - they just have a thing against vowels apparently). Basically, this is Anthropologie meets Weddings. AKA my dream store meets weddings. You have no idea how much I want to go play dress up in some of these gowns & accessories!!

Can’t wait to start seeing these items used in real weddings!

Ciao! :)
