Happy Monday,
Lovelies!
Wow. Zaa. Late Saturday night, I was working on sewing
a pillow for a chair I’m upholstering (see here), and I kept breaking needles
on my sewing machine, and then my belt came off the wheel thing-a-ma-jig inside
the sewing machine.
Life kind of
feels like that sewing machine. I have
this photography business, an antique/ redesign business, and a teeny-tiny
federal contract. I have all the
know-how and a TON of excitement to make everything work, but sometimes I have
to slow down to replace a needle or put the belt back on a flywheel.
I hate slowing
down.
I think little by little I’m learning how to make everything function smoothly—and learning how to break less needles.

Today, I have a
TON of sneak peeks for you. I’ll roll
out the full sessions to you over the next two weeks.
While at Lake
Anne, I met a woman who was getting all dolled up in the bathroom. I asked-- what is the occasion? She was holding a wedding reception for her
daughter in the Jo Ann Rose Art Gallery.
No photographer. When thinking
about your priorities for your wedding day, some photographers will say you
**need** a professional photographer. To me, if
photos aren’t your thing, they aren’t your thing. This mom tried to hire me as we chatted
because it wasn’t a priority until she saw her daughter, herself, and her
friends and family assembling. I couldn’t. The mom was super bummed, so I snapped a few
pictures on my way out the door.
Family mini session at the Lincoln. Beautiful day, and yes. That beautiful, tiny woman is the mom. Man! She got the antieyebags and antibabyfat genes.
When I was shooting
and attending a brunch, Renzo hit up an estate auction to refill our space at
Sweet Clover. One item he picked up was
this GORG chifferobe. You can read more
about chifferobes here. This one comes
in four pieces: a base, a crown, and two locker-like pieces. So, you get a big ol’ piece that can fit in
your SUV, up your townhouse stairs, and even in your apartment.
I cannot wait
to refinish this and several other pieces!
Engagement
session with this stylish couple! Gorg
outfits and perfect styling. They
brought a picnic- how cute!
Brunch with
Governor Parnell of Alaska. One thing I
LOVE about Alaskan politicians, they aren’t afraid of hanging out with the
everyday “Joe.”
