Wedding T minus 4 days.... Mayhem!

So for the past couple of months Ive been helping my best friend plan her wedding which is going to be this Friday. So right now is crunch time and I am trying my best to be as helpful as possible.
But before this week we have had some great times in planning this wedding extravaganza! First step in the planing process... The Bachelorette Party!!! Lets just say we took Napa by storm!


Our first stop was AsiaSF which I highly recommend for any ladies out there looking for a good time with a few good "men." You will be totally surprised and jealous all at the same time! The food was amazing and the entertainment is well worth it.




Up next was the beautiful wineries that we visited and could not get enough of.

After a full weekend of fun we closed it out with a stop at In And Out!


After all the Bachelorette madness we now had to turn our focus on the wedding planning madness. After numerous venue searches,


(None of which were chosen... HA! But was fun to have many road trips.) bridesmaid dress shopping and color changes,(Also none of which were chosen... HA! But it is fun to shop with the ladies!)
the wedding is now coming together and is practically finished.

uckily through this process I rediscovered my love for design. Ive been always creatively inclined but never really put it too use. I faithfully watched Martha Stewart for may years so it finally paid off. So instead of being the happy couple's wedding planner I'd like to call myself the wedding designer! As soon as we have finished "designing" my next posts will be of all the creative objects we came up with... centerpieces, menus, place cards etc....

New to Blogging

Alright here is my first blog... I am starting from the ground up my photography business. After years of "the grind" in the photography and art world I am ready to get my own business started. I have traveled around the world to learn about art and its influence in commercial photography. I finally found my niche in art and have began to explore where I would like to be in commercial world.

I have found myself drawn to newborn, infant and child photography. I have always been really good with "little ones" as I was a nanny for some really cute kids. For some reason (which may be my own child-like behavior) children and I get along like peas in a pod. That is why as my portfolio grew through the years I saw that my best work was of children I had met through my travels.

I hope that you find my work beautiful and playful; emotional and striking. I hope that you would like to explore the world of children through the lens of my camera.
