film inspired – april

This month I find myself inspired by the imperfect nature of film and by the gorgeous colors, the grain and the tones.

I find that I don’t care so much about the images being perfect… as long as they are of those I love.

That alone is perfect enough for me.

Next in this blog series is the insanely talented Jill Serrano Photography – click over and have your socks knocked off!

Love. The thumb and hair twirl — I have an 8-year-old version of that in my house. <3

Fridays have a special place in my heart right now.

Fridays are no school for the littles.

Snuggling on the couch until we realize it’s time to throw something together for lunch.

Fridays are wearing your pants inside out if you want to.

I’m going to miss Fridays next year…

Up next in this Film Fridays blog circle is Hampshire Wedding photographer Jenny Owens

I lust love the composition here and wide angle-the light-the realness of the moment cast in such an artistic way. <3

Friday’s at your place sound amazing! I love these B&W’s! :)

Beginnings Workshop – Part 3

Last Saturday brought another fantastic Beginnings workshop with tons of enthusiasm and excitement!

I’m pretty sure we could have skipped the introductions part because while I was running around, these girls instantly bonded.

I have one final workshop for March but I won’t be blogging that… instead Sarah with Coffee Rings and Southern Things will be here blogging, Instagramming, Facebooking and maybe shouting from the treetops.

If you want to hear all about it head over to her blog and Facebook page – you don’t want to miss this!

(a huge thanks to Denise Hope Photography for these images!)

Aw, yay! I’m so excited to do this!!!!! And shouting from the treetops, I shall!

Also, that is TOTALLY Jacqueline. Getting all Vogue on the floor. Love it! <3
