i spent the evening creating . . .

i decided that, with all of these photoshoots and events coming up,

that i needed a planner/date book to keep track of everything!

so, i spent my night at home creating a

completely made-from-scratch planner!

somehow, i made a HUGE mess . . .

as soon as things started to come together, i got super excited!

i have these classic martha stewart alphabet cards

with cute animals, their names, and the letter their names begin with . . .

i thought the hedgehog would be cute for fall! :)

not sure why . . . hehe.

i created pages for dates, contacts, and notes/ideas in indesign.

then i created little divider pages for each section . . .

and i made this little pouch in the back for business cards :)

and, the final result!

(i know, the pictures aren't too great.  by the time i finished, it was midnight and
i have a basement bedroom . . . so.  artificial light.  sorry peeps! i'm so ashamed  . . . )



well, that's it for me!  i hope everybody has a wonderful night!

hello lovely people!

any fun plans this weekend?

i have a softball game tonight, as per usual, then, i don't know what!

i kind of want to watch nick and norah's infinite playlist.  that movie

just brings me back to last fall, which was a wonderful season :)

tomorrow, i may try to squeeze in a mini-shoot with chloe and lee

to push for a fall-promo we're workin on, and maybe a latte

at the sundance lodge up the canyon . . . mmmm.

i will be sure to post pictures from tomorrow!

have a fabulous night!

(p.s. sorry my posts have been so short lately, kind of an uneventful week!)

love you!

wednesday!

i came home to the most wonderful surprise today!

diana of our.city.lights (one of my favorite daily reads) 

sent me the sweetest little care-package :)

the envelope it came in was so neatly decorated

with care . . .

carrying this print, one of the coolest pictures i've ever seen!!

there is just something about it that just

pulls me right in . . .

then there were all of these cute little extras inside!

diana, you are just the best!!

today, i was feeling a little bit down.

just dumb business things, trying to figure everything out, feeling a 

little bit lost on it all . . .

i decided to just go out to my yard and take

some pictures for fun, and forget about business for a few hours.

the way the sun was shining through my neighbors trees

was just so fantastic . . .

then (and this is really lame) i decided

to take a few pictures of ME.

because i'm just about the most awkward 

person in front of a camera, and i rarely post pictures of myself.

so. here's me.

the good, the bad, 

and the awkward . . .

it was a little bit fun tho, hehe.
