adorable photo notepads

I ordered these custom notepads for my friends and loved how they turned out! I would definitely recommend these and all of Pinhole Press's products to all of my clients. They have amazing designs and the products are very easy to order.
To see all of their beautiful products visit their website here.
Happy August everyone!

We took these back in March on our cross country road trip from virginia to california. It was the halfway point!
The first shot didn't do the scale of the arch justice so we took one from far away as well (that is Scott standing beneath it). Hope you all are having a great week!

perfect beach day {two years old}

It was a beautiful day to shoot at crystal cove and we had a great time. I can't believe this little one is already two! time is flying by.

speaking of time, I have been very bad about posting, sorry! but there are some big things happening around here and lots of happiness going on. I will try to be more on top of my posting.

a fun afternoon {six months old}

It's been a while since I posted and a lot has changed! But before I moved from Virginia I had some really fun photo shoots with some awesome families. Since we are sort of settled in our new place I will be posting again, yay!
I hope you enjoy these from a very windy, spring afternoon.
Happy Friday everyone!

norfolk!

We stayed at the Ace Hotel, it was awesome. The food at the hotel's restaurant, the Breslin, was so good that it was hard to eat other places. that is saying a lot since it is New York. The first night, we were starving and didn't want to think about where to eat and we just strolled in. I ordered the lamb burger with thrice fried potatoes and it rocked my world. Scott ordered duck with brussel sprouts and rediscovered the vegetable, everything was so so good. We couldn't resist ordering room service a couple days later and it rocked. next time you are in New York you have to try the Breslin. Yum!
