Monday Mash Up

I always get to the point where I have a bunch of random pictures and updates and there simply is no way to do a single post for each silly little thing so today is my mash up day again! haha First in the mash up is a step out picture.  I haven't done one in ages and as I looked through my past step out pics I was ALWAYS in pants so I realized it was time to dress up a bit.  This was what I wore to church two Sundays ago.  I love how comfortable and chic this dress is (got it at Nordstroms on their clearance wrack) and because my legs are still deathly white, I love that comfy leggings are a perfect solution for that! I don't like wearing dresses because I have a one year old and need to be able to bend over and run around without yah know....flashing anyone but, every now and then it feels good to dress girly!!
                                                  Dress: Nordstroms
                                                 Leggings: Christmas gift from Express (thanks sissy)
                                                 Shoes: I think Target
                                                 Jewelry: Rue 21
                                                 Fake smile: 100% ah naturallll

 Second in the mash up are two sneak peaks from my engagement session last weekend.  I have SO many pictures that I love and in fact am waiting to post my favorites until the end when they are all done.  Don't want to give away the best till last but, these were adorable too! I know Christina from my church and she also asked me to shoot her bridals and her wedding in August.  It'll be my first wedding so it's a big deal and I am so thankful that she his taking a chance on me!  This couple is seriously the sweetest bunch of love ever.
They did whatever I asked and giggled and laughed the whole time. Love them!

  And last but, certainly not least we got a special visit from my Great Aunt Jane and my cousin Lindsey last weekend.  Jane is my mom's Dad's sister.  Did you follow that?  She lives in Georgia but, I haven't seen her in years and years.  My Grandpa (her brother) passed away several years ago now and it was so special to see Jane because I see so much of my Grandpa in her eyes and face.  Miss him.  Lindsey actually lives locally and yet we have never met up before so it was a treat to see her after all these years as well.  Daisy LOVED Jane's cell phone and loved the lights and beeps.  I think she turned it on and off a few times to.  I am thankful that Jane didn't mind as phones are D's favorite thing right now...especially if they are real! Thanks for stopping by you two!  Love Daisy's pretty dark eyes in the second pic.  She is growing up SO fast!!

  22. Ehh... not a huge fan of the pictures. Too simple and not unique. And the models don't help the picture composition either. I admire your effort though!
