Ashley Lovett

Yesterday I had the chance to meet Ashley Lovett at the Santa Monica Pier for some fun photos. She had seen my work through a relative, and was nice enough to volunteer to model for me should I need anyone.

WELL! She was just super nice. We first met up at Urth Caffe in Santa Monica for some breakfast, and got to talk a little bit. We have a lot of things in common! So that was fun. Then we headed to the pier where I've been wanting to take pictures for some time; so glad I did! And, being girls, we walked the promenade. I had never seen it so I was loving all the stores. So clean and nice. Enjoy these photos from the day!





And thank you Ashley for such a good time!

10 things...

The only thing I love about this Wednesday is that in a few short hours this beautiful new lens will be all MINE! I've been dreaming of owning this lens for almost a year now, and I am soooooo excited to finally upgrade! I get to use it this weekend on my beautiful friend Nikki for her grad pictures, and I am super excited! Pretty pictures to come!

Teaser

FORGIVE ME! I was not able to post my "10 things I love about Wednesday" this week due to an overwhelming lack of work done on my part. I was swamped with projects, errands, and misc things that got in the way. So, to (hopefully) make up for some of that, I'm posting a little teaser from Colleen and Kevin's wedding I did two weeks ago (you remember their previous teaser on here?). Enjoy!



(I do love details!)

10 things...

I love about Wednesday!

Please enjoy the post! Lots of fun things for me :)

Here are a few recent edits from my past two weddings. I'm lovin' it so far!



Very gloomy today. My kind of weather! I thrive in the cold. Maybe its my pale skin...But I have a new necessity now for early class mornings. The starbucks frap :)



Also just shipped off a wedding album to a client. Turned out great and can't wait for the 2 other orders on the way! Also in the process of putting together the finishing touches on a proof book. Always hard for me to narrow down 100 photos.



An AMAZING new find today on Etsy. World map decor?!?!? YES PLEASE! I wish I had wall space for it. One day... OH. And of course a shout out to my favorite blog, not only for inspiration for my photography, but for my personal desire for that silly piece of paper that I desire =p Green Wedding Shoes!



And lastly, some freshly baked cookies grandma made yesterday! I can't stop eating them. Explains why the cookie monster is my favorite sesame. And, tomorrow I'm developing my film project's film! Nervous! Its been a while...(I feel old now)



Have a great rest of the week! I'm excited for the weekend. A date, good italian food, gelato, cupcake baking, and possibly a photo exhibition attendance!

xo.

Whats Cookin? Colleen + Kevin!!!

10 things...

10 things I love about...Thursday! Is now up. Sorry for the delay in the last couple weeks, wednesdays recently have NOT been my kinda day. My art classes are keeping me BUSY! I'm not sure I've ever felt so immersed and flooded with work! But it keeps me busy, and I do like being busy :) Hope you are all having a good week! And enjoy this post.

As you can see, the image on the right is currently what my life feels like. A PILE of reading and books. But what I'd really like to be doing (on the right) is being back in Rome. I miss it.



Also, a current screen shot of a photo I was randomly editing from last weekends wedding (another one on SAT!) and it really is easier to edit to Paramore's "the only exception." Now, let me stop you right there. I'm not a paramore fan, really. But, I heard this song on the radio and instantly connected with it.



I'm also planning a trip to The Getty soon! I've still never been. I know i know. I'm supposed to be this great art student. And I've never been to one of the best ones out there. Also, maybe stop at Sprinkles Cupcakes on the way home? mmmm



I recently had a chance to iChat with my sister, and she brought my baby girl cleo out! I miss her sooooooooo. What a darlin'. Also, found this cute new party blog:

"10 Things" Wednesday

I have to admit, today I only have 5 things I love. And that's because the day went by so quickly I only had enough time to finish 5! School has been crazy hectic, added on top of album artwork, and wedding album designing. Phew. Bear with me, lovelies! It may get a little bumpy these next few weeks.

I love tiramisu (and all things Italian) so I've found a good recipe I'm trying out soon.



Heres a page from the wedding album I've been designing. Almost done!



This is from today in our digital studio class. Had to go out and shoot anything, basically without a thought passing through our heads. Just shoot.



I love fresh painted nails!



And I couldn't forget my boy Dungey. Had to include him here because I'll be missing his race on TV this sat. Sounds kinda like I know him right? I don't. =p
