Here are some of my favorites from Melissa and Bobby’s anytime session. Umm, yea, they rocked it. Thank you guys for being so willing with all my suggestions!
This one blows me away every time I look at it. Definitely my favorite!
And to see a slideshow with more of their awesome session, click here! Feel free to leave your comments below, I’d love to hear from you!
One of my flaws is that I have a terrible time asking people for help. So that curtain rod that needed to be hung with anchors drilled in the wall…I did it. Dimmer switch, and pendant lamp installed and hung…did that too. Flat tire changed…well I tried but the lug nuts were too tight. I would just rather do these things by myself than wait for help.
My Christmas tree this year was no different, I got it over the weekend, emphasis on the I part. I had a feeling it might be a little challenging to buy a tree, get it up four floors, and in the stand BY YOURSELF, but I figured if I got stuck anywhere along the way I could always call for backup. Oh and that minor minor detail that I’m allergic to sap too, oh well, brang it! When I finally got the whole thing up my mom asked me how in the world I did it by myself, I had to remind her that I clearly didn’t set a weight lifting record in high school for nothing.
And just for the record some of these were taken with my point and shoot.
The Home Depot dude who offered to help me put in on my car, then asked me to retake a few photos because he didn’t think he looked tough enough. A little photo sesh was the least I could do.
Before and then the night after I decorated it.
And what could be better than putting up your Christmas tree you ask, well, snow of course.
My backyard.

Looks like an adventure. Nice scarf by the way. I just learned the “french” knot for those. So glamorous!December 7, 2009 – 2:15 pm
I’m finally finished with my living room redecorating (check out the before), and it’s just fabulous. I have a hard time getting myself to leave the couch, cause I love just sitting and soaking it all up. I had an idea about how I wanted it to look, and I think I definitely topped it. This new space is a true reflection of me and things I love. Feel free to stop on by and check it out yourself!
This is one of my favorite parts. I bought this scrapbook from South Moon Under years ago, and wasn’t ever brave enough to do something to any of the pages. I finally decided to take it out of my closet and place all the amazing thank you notes I get from clients in it. I love opening it up and re-reading all the notes, and especially adding new ones.

Thank you all for the sweet sweet comments. Guess I have something to fall back on if this whole photog thing doesn’t work out ;) @Aunt Jeannette and Auntie Ann: cocktails and appetizers are ANYTIME, miss you guys, love you! @Natalie: Ouuu, I would LOVE to come help you decorate….so much fun!! @Melissa: Hmm, I know it’s terrible, but I have no idea what the color is called. I went to Home Depot and narrowed it down between two grays, and then made my mom decide…I’m terrible at decisions!December 7, 2009 – 2:16 pm
Auntie Ann and Aunt Jeannette want to know if you have a room for them. Your place looks very inviting. What time do you serve cocktails and appetizers.December 5, 2009 – 4:07 pm

When Chaela and I had been chatting about where they wanted to do their engagement session, she threw around a couple of ideas. A barn, and a field-ish area. And I somehow got the ingenious idea to go to Sugarloaf Mountain. INGENIOUS.
I arrived about thirty minutes early and loveliness awaited me. Muddy mucky dirt roads, and oh yea, they closed the whole mountain, CLOSED PEOPLE?!?! How can you close a WHOLE MOUNTAIN?! So of course, I then had to think up a plan B, in 10 minutes. Luckily I found a few awesome spots, and when Chaela and Scott showed up we decided just to hop in the car and drive around till we saw some good places to shoot. And I must say, it turned out for the best, because what we found was drop dead gorgeous fields with the perfectly glowing sun as it was setting.
Can’t wait for next May when they get married in Annapolis, it’s going to be an amazing wedding for sure.
That would be the CLOSED Sugarloaf Mountain in the background.
I love Scott’s huge smile on the left. He’s so sweet and genuine.
This is my favorite from the day, simply gorgeous. You guys look like models.
Couples always ask me what they should wear to engagement sessions, and well, me…woman with no style, gives the best suggestions that I can. But my couples always rock it out and show up dressed so stylish and trendy. I love Chaela’s boots…and might just have to get myself a pair.
The prefect way to end the day.
