A tiny teaser from this morning’s sunrise breakfast photo shoot with my girl, Amy Champagne Events. I love our heart-to-heart talks and this morning’s chat was even better; it was all done while we shot a pretty tablescape. Just for us … just because we wanted to … just because sometimes, it’s nice to do stuff for no reason except to have fun.
We’d all dreamed of Kelly + Brian’s wedding being a beautiful spring wedding day; beach photos, sand under our feet, boardwalks and parasols … and then the rain threatened to take the day out. Kelly never let it get to her. Instead, she scoured locations we could shoot in (that had beautiful overhangs for rain protection) and kept a “this isn’t going to dictate whether my day is amazing or not” kind of attitude. And you know what? The rain held off and she and Brian were given the most FABULOUS weather day. EVER. Cheers to you both – to happy attitudes, love and beautiful memories (rain or shine). I heart you guys!
Major kudos + love to my second shooter, Sandra, who came up with amazing shots all day including this awesome ring shot … and she let me copy her and take it, too!

My morning ritual is the always the same; a stumble down the stairs, a quick tap on of the t.v with my left hand to ensure I hear the familiar sounds of the news broadcast and a final burst to the kitchen to start the coffee. I’ve done it so many times I could do it blindfolded. It’s funny how a daily ritual becomes so second nature that we don’t even have to think about how to do it – we just DO. My hands move about the countertops, from mason jar to bean grinder to french press to … warm coffee in my hands. And then I sit and dream … about the day and the days after that and how I’ll get it all done. And before I know it, it’s morning again and I’m stumbling down the stairs, ready to do it all again.
It’s been a whirlwind week; a quick trip to Puerto Rico for a destination wedding and then immediately to Boston for my best friend’s photo shoot … with her new baby. While shooting, our other friend brought along the other new member in our group (you may remember her momma here!) and I just had to snap a quick round of photos. Here’s Giuliana … playing with her auntie brooke in her onesie …
My ‘material sprucing up‘ included a very close look at what things I am drawn to and when Sandy (Roseville Designs) and I chatted, I kept sending her things that included bows, ruffles and pearls. (my photo inspiration board looked like a banana republic/j crew catalogue I kid you not.) Sandy decided I was incorporating a bow into my new materials. And so … a bow it is. My new materials – business cards, note cards and online materials all have this bee-autiful bow element incorporated into it that I just A.D.O.R.E.
So today I figured I’d share my love affair with bows by creating a swoon palette with all things wedding bow related. Enjoy!
