Andrew & Lexi.

A couple weeks ago my darling friend, Rachel, and I had the honor of photographing Andrew and Lexi's wedding. Photographing weddings with Rachel gives me the freedom to focus more on film while she shoots digital and that makes weddings much more enjoyable for me! Here are a few of my favorite shots:

They are such a sweet couple!
Beautiful wedding and beautiful people.

A Very Etsy Christmas

Decorating for Christmas has always been one of my favorite things. Throughout the year I am always on the lookout at thrift and antique stores for unique Christmasy finds.  

It recently occurred to me to look on etsy for the same type of things and I figured I would share some of the treasures that I found.

Christmas owls.

Green & red tea pot.

Adorable tiny deer.

Vintage story book.

Handmade ornament set.

Vintage cups.

Handmade tree ornaments.

Embroidery hoop ornaments.

Cute bunting.

Electric candle.

Well I hope that everyone is having a wonderful little holiday season and I would love to hear some of your ideas when it comes to decorating for Christmas.

Thrifty Easter

For Easter this year Jake & I went back to his dad's house for the weekend. It was super relaxing and simple which was just want I needed to help battle away a silly cold that had been bothering me for about a week. While we were out there we visited an adorable antique store and I picked up a few goodies:

I can never pass up cute saucers. 

Currently obsessed with collecting vintage planters.

I found the sweetest little punch tin note pad holder! I love it.

So even though I was a little under the weather it turned out to be a nice & quiet little get away. And it is always nice to see Jake's dad, who just happens to make the best breakfast.
How was your holiday weekend?

Oh Happy Day! My Summer Wedding..

Happy Sunday! I hope everyone had a great weekend! I wanted to share my wedding, that took place last June, with all of you. 
Thanks to all of our amazing friends and family, we had the day of our dreams. I guess you could say that the vision we had for our wedding was "classic vintage and handmade." Because we are surrounded by so many beautifully talented people we wanted to invite them to take part in creating the perfect wedding with us. Everything from my dress to the groomsmen's leather hats to the favors were handmade by us and our friends. Many other little items were purchased from vintage/thrift stores and etsy. 

Boots from Dirty Birdies Vintage.

My necklace was made by Jake and my veil was a created by Andrea, Vieve and myself.

Decorations by Melisa and MaryEllen. <3

My dress was made by my dear friend Jocelyn Weber. <3

Hair and make-up by Vieve and Sarah. <3

Wedding videos done by Mindi and Justin!

So many thanks to all of our incredible family and friends who were there to make 6/18/2011 such a wonderful day! Jake and I love you all!
Lookin' forward to the many years ahead.
