Truth. I have an obsession with magazines. I savor the way the paper feels beneath my fingers, the full-page sized photos, being able to flip through them and see at a glance the beautiful images within. So when I was choosing the types of albums to offer, I wanted at least one option to feel like a magazine. These simple albums are similar to the feel of a magazine, but they have the[...]
Our trip to San Francisco can really be summed up in just two words: We walked. And I loved every second of it. It was such a refreshing change. Getting around on your own two feet is empowering, and the fresh air was invigorating. We didn't even see a trace of the famous fog - I'm sure that walking in that is not nearly as enjoyable as the lovely sun we saw the entire time we were there. What[...]
If I were to describe my lifestyle aesthetic, it would totally be colorful modern. So I made an album that felt exactly that way. One that I would be thrilled to see on my coffee table and would love to pick up to look through photos and relive the best day ever. Not my best day ever, but you know what I mean. And that...that is why I love these custom albums. No matter what your styl[...]
There are so many things I have to be thankful for. But if I had to choose one, it would be this: I am so thankful to have found a friend to work alongside this year. It has made all of the difference. When you work for yourself, for better or worse, you get to make all of the decisions, and this, I know, was the right one. Every weekend for the past eight months, I've been excited to[...]
I think if I lived in San Francisco, I would never tire of this bridge. It might have been touristy, but I could have spent every second gazing at it, photographing it, loving on it. It is every bit as grand in person as it looks in photos. Maybe even more astounding, when you see it up close. Yes, I went to San Francisco and fell in love with a bridge. Happy F[...]
Sometimes I don't even realize amazing places exist in my own backyard. We spent all of a week in California, admiring beautiful view after beautiful view. And all the while I whined that there was nothing like it on the East Coast. Umm...yeah. Thank you Lauren and Dennis for showing me how wrong I was. I'm so, so, so happy to have found two people who are adventurous enough to find a[...]
Last Tuesday, I had one of those days. The kind you learn about in first grade - the terrible, horrible, no good, very bad kind that can only be cured by a bouquet of flowers or a random act of kindness...or several margaritas (they didn't mention that cure when I was in elementary school; I had to figure it out myself)...or a trip down memory lane via the most beautiful wedding album y[...]
Oh, San Francisco. A week after returning home, I'm ready to go back. The weather being warm on the other coast might have something to do with it. Or the gorgeous bridge (you know the one I'm talking about - and if you don't, I have a full post of photos for you). Or the amazing landscape, the closeness of the water and the mountains. Or the charming architecture. Or the accessibility[...]
We're nearing the end of our trip to California. My feet will be grateful, but my heart is sad. I love this place, and can't wait to plan the next trip back. Before heading on to San Francisco, we took a few days in San Diego, that were sort of the vacation part of the trip. That is my town, and those are my people. If I ever move from the East Coast, it very well might be to La Jolla.[...]
This wedding. It might be my favorite. When I got home and started looking at the images, there was one thing that kept running through my mind. This bride...she loved being a bride. It makes all the difference. Because she was truly enjoying (with an emphasis on the finding joy part) being a bride, there is something special that comes through in the photos. It makes all the differe[...]
