Currently Loving :: May 2012

Hey folks! So sorry I've been a bit off the grid lately. Life hit an all new level of crazy last week.... in a good way.

I had my very dear girlfriend, Casie and her one year old son visiting us from the midwest, Tuesday thru Friday. I spent a lot of time toting her and the kids around town entertaining.

Here's a peek at my girl and her boo...

I also had to work a little. A family photo session on Wednesday - and then a huge huge huge wedding to photograph on Saturday for my bestie - Jenna.... Of which I was an invited guest to the rehearsal dinner on Friday and the after party crab feast on Sunday. Quite the full weekend.

Here's a peek at my two beautiful friends....

Things were off the rails crazy around here and I just didn't have a second to sit and type. Sorry guys.

I have, however been keeping a little list handy of some of the things I'm currently loving right now... and I thought I'd share.

My Mother's Day gift from Clark and the kids... Hello iPad 3.... welcome to the family.

Agera AHA Clarifying Toner... a game changer for my problematic skin. I splash it on after cleansing like after shave... don't even bother with a cotton pad. :)

This watch from Anthropologie... on it's way to mi casa... but backordered. Boo.

These Fonts...

Kavaler Kursive, Bebas Nueue, LOBSTER, Pacifico, Snickles

 

 

This bikini from Anthropologie... Sale Department WOOT!

My little partnership with Persnickety Prints. They've sent me a heap of co-branded cards with individualized FREE SHIPPING codes on them... I'm trying to spread the love! If you'd like to check them out - please leave me a comment below (your email will be kept private) and I'll contact you!!!

And on a personal note... I'm also LOVING...

Running with my neighbor Nat in the evenings at least  3 days a week. I've gone back and forth with my love affair with running over the years. I have a horrible bad back... Surgery in 2009... So... as long as it's kind to me - I'm so happy to be beginning yet again. And having a partner to pass the miles with is nice. Helps keep your mind off the agony of the first few weeks.

Insert - cheesy stock image from running website of two gals jogging here... :P

Fresh strawberries from our local pick your own farm. We have gone three times in the past three weeks to pick. I bring them home and wash them - behead them and put them in plastic freezer bags for storage until they will become smoothies over the year. I'm going to try and go at least once more and see how long they last me througout the year. Clark also wants to make a heap of jam.... We eat A LOT of PB&J in this house. Clark can make jam? Who knew? I'm ready to get schooled.

Three women I'd like to acknowledge who have been especially kind and helpful to me in the last few weeks....

I love them all more than I can say...

Shelby Morris - my extra special assistant on shoots and in the editing room. You rock honey.
"DAAAAANG Shelby!" Soooo glad to have you.

Coty Jones - For second shooting with me on Saturday. You kept me calm and sane and gave me the confidence I needed to pull it all off. The wedding was fab... and I sincerely thank you for your expertise, your kindness and your amazing talent. My clients are LUCKY LUCKY... and so am I. Love ya.

Elizabeth Martin - My sister in law for loaning me an extra backup camera for the weekend. Honey, you are always always there for me in a pinch. LOVE YOU SISTER... not just "currently" as the blog title would suggest - but ALWAYS girl!!

 

Welcome back everyone!

Beautiful pictures, your friend and her son are gorgeous! Did you pick those strawberries at Emily's produce? We went a few weeks ago to pick there and the strawberries were awesome!

I'd love to try Persnickety!
