Farmer's Market

Joe went to the farmers early this week.  This bounty of beauties were calling my name.

So I gave myself up for the challenge and decided to shoot them as soon as I came home from work.

Working with natural window light is very fleeting, so I knew I had to work efficiently.  I was happy with what I came up with too!  I love the crispness of shooting against the black chalkboard surface. I think it really makes the produce shine!  In other news Joe and I recently joined a local CSA. I can't wait to stage the next impromptu photo shoot of the seasonal produce we'll be getting each week. Yum!!

Loving: Vintage Collections

How fun is it to receive email updates from your favorite shops! Even if (for lack of funds) you can only imagine yourself wearing something new. Free People is announcing their Fall vintage collection today and it's photos and styling are worth taking a look at, in my opinion! The collection is handpicked by Free People buyers, for truly one of a kind vintage pieces. I love all the lace, denim, and black velvet showcased in this collection. I'll take one of each, please!

Sunday Afternoon

On Sunday my family and I gathered together to celebrate my dad's 62nd Birthday!

My mom catered from yummy Portillos and we all shared in conversation and company

for the afternoon. But there always seems to be times when I start feeling antsy just sitting around eating and talking for more than 2 hours, that photography was my perfect excuse to escape and see what my favorite little people were doing outside. Here were some of my findings.

{Last Day}

* write in my gratitude journal
* fall fast asleep ;)
