late night
while it’s not incredibly late by any stretch, it’s really late for me. I’m exhausted. And I plan to be back at work in just under 8 hours. But for some reason, I’m just not really feeling like going to bed. Perhaps because I’m sitting here …
With these girls …
who right now are not being so peaceful. They are playing with Mur’s size 12 chacos. Which are about the length of them. Running in and out of the straps. Body slamming one another. You know, the usual kitty banter.
I can’t say I really have anything all that exciting to talk about, I just felt like I needed to post something and I found some fun photos I haven’t put up here yet, so a blog post was born.
And to conclude this bit about not very much, Tarrazu wanted to pass along a message … jasfSKEFKiaUHIWR hhhhhhhhhhhhhWHfuiuwaauiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii … straight from the kitty’s paw. One of these days I will have to take photos or make a video of how they so casually prance across my keyboard before lying down to take a little snooze. Makes sense, right? I often wonder if I would have the same antics as the kittens. And that might be why Mur thinks I need more friends.
Night night!
i love the porch
… not much else to add with this one. Just a cute pup.
… the paws crossed gets me every time. So stinkin cute!
She looks a bit aggressive in those bottom ones, yet even the kitties get along with her. I know – it’s hard to believe from some of my other stories of Mrs. Roux. All the girls (2 feline + 1 canine) had a great first play date yesterday. Minimal hissing and swatting but lots of investigation from all parties involved.
Wausau, WI + Fun things
Yet another week almost gone. And another weekend of fun fun fun is almost upon me. Can’t wait for this one! Mur and I managed to snag some tickets to what promises to be an amazing show at the Walker Sculpture Garden put on by the best local music station, The Current. Can’t wait! I heard such great things about last years show and Mur and I need to get out more, so this is the perfect solution. Now let’s all cross our fingers that the weather holds out!
And then Sunday is the big Dad’s Day. Not positive what the plan is yet – it will for sure involve a BBQ, a new batch of home brew beer, a fantastic breakfast and most likely some fun. Get your party hat ready, dad. Sunday is going to be a BLAST!
So… the point of my post mentioning Wausau, WI? We’ll last weekend I had the fortune to shoot a wedding with a lovely, lovely friend who is so fun, funky and fabulous! Emily Steffen, her lovely assistant Katie and I ventured over to Wausau, WI to shoot a wedding. It was an incredibly beautiful wedding with amazing flowers, lovely dresses and fabulous linens! One of my favorite things about weddings and parties – and life! – are the details. The little things is always the stuff I want to remember most. I feel pretty confident I will remember each event (worth shooting) by itself, but if I don’t have a photo of dinner or of the candy wrappers or the disheveled bed-head, how am I going to remember the awesomeness. Details – it’s where it’s at 🙂
Now, if you’ve been involved in weddings in the sort of way that doesn’t really allow you to eat a ton, you will appreciate how tortuous it was for me to take the far right image. I was as starving as an artist. Ha – bad joke.
These darlins were fun to work with for their mom’s wedding. It was all about getting dressed up for Haley (on the left), who absolutely loved twirling on the dance floor. And riding in the limo. And calling me Mrs. Photographer Lady.
I must say, I am starting to really like helping out with wedding photography. Weddings are still not the route I will go, but they are real fun because the pressure isn’t on you. Oof. Keep em coming, girl! 🙂
first day excitement + wish for mother nature
Because of kitties, some of my first *awesome* camera photos got a bit overshadowed. The day after I got it, Mur and I went garage saleing after the storms had passed. It was beautiful out and things were just a bit damp. Here are my 2 favorites, and maybe the brightness of it will convince mother nature to maybe bring that sunshine back again! Pretty please?
