Floral Potluck 2015

After last year's party, I knew I had to throw another floral potluck. So once again I asked a few friends to join me and bring a flower bunch to share. Elissa of Thread of Scarlet did an awesome job teaching floral crown basics and Jessica of Sugar Loo Cakes made the most amazing cakes - Lavender cake with honey cream cheese frosting and two little gluten-free strawberry cakes covered with edible flowers from the garden.

I loved visiting and it was so fun to see how beautiful and different everyone's arrangements turned out. We were even blessed with fantastic weather (last year was a scorcher)! Needless to say, a great time was had by all and this party is officially an annual event.

Swaddle Love

A friend of mine recently launched a line of swaddle blankets and asked if I would take some marketing photos. Take photos of adorable babies all wrapped up? Of course! What could be better?

Having recently had a baby, I am well acquainted with blankets that do and do not work well for swaddling and I honestly have to say that I love these. They are larger than your typical blanket which makes getting a good swaddle much easier. They are also made out of a great lightweight material which makes it perfect to use in the summer or as a nursing cover. One of my all time favorite things about these though is that they come in fun simple colors. If you know me, you know that I am not a fan of cutesy character covered products. If you are looking for a great baby shower gift or if you are expecting a little one, you need to check these out on Amazon!

Baby Ellis

We have a new guy around here and we think he is pretty great. Born March 4th,  20.5 inches, 8lb 4oz. We named him Ellis Aaron. We are completely smitten!

The Harrisons

 

It was such a pleasure to photograph this family. The Harrisons are such good, genuine people and it's easy to see the love they have for each other. And can you believe the smiles from those little girls?!

Baby Addie

This sweetheart belongs to one of my best friends from college. Tiny Addison was wide awake for most of our shoot and such a well behaved baby. I am glad that I was able to meet her and visit with her parents. I am so happy for this little family and thankful that Stephanie and I have remained good friends over the years! Congrats again Steph!!
