Yay- it’s finally here! Introducing the ZozoBugBaby Spring line lookbook session…
wardrobe: ZozoBugBaby
crowns: Sweet Violet Jane
hair pieces: Silly Me Baby
portland | OR
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…
(ps… you can win these ZozoBugBaby dresses below)

I wanted to slip in another Dreamer feature… this one is a little more personal in that the images are doing double duty as our Christmas card (errr… book- yeah, we are up to 12 pages this year. I am officially out of control and must be stopped).
I want to give a HUGE thank you to Ritchie Rags for the adorable custom outfit. I had an idea for ruffled bloomers and she totally ran with it and gave us the perfect disco holiday set! (the best part? we are giving it away on the Dreamer Blog!! hurry… get on over there!) :)
I can’t tell you how much I loved this set. I could live in this set- disco balls and snow everywhere… pretty sure that is what heaven looks like ;)
