Just a quick little stop in to share Susanne (of 3 Beans Photography) and my day… one of my favorites, The Measure, outfitted us for our play date. Have I mentioned lately how much fun I have ‘working’… cause I do. ;) Not only is Susanne a great photographer, she’s got mad skills with a needle and thread (can’t wait to share her new site and all its goodness). Thanks for coming out… can’t wait to hang out again!

I always love working with new talent (& when they are this cute? If only my blog had sound… adorable is an understatement). We had a quick little shoot to show off ZozoBugBaby’s dress that is being featured this month. Perfect way to spend a morning if you ask me…

Friday was the Portland workshop. It was a crazy talented group of ladies. One of them even made the crowns for our shoot (wait until you see those!)… yeah- I was on Cloud 9 all day long :) My favorite part of workshops are the connections I make- the common interests, the inspiration & excitement each person brings and having time to just sit & talk about what we love. As I finish up editing the photos from our day, I get to move on to a little break from intense work for the rest of the month and I can’t think of a better day to go out on & savor as I gear up for the new year. Thank you ladies…
