How cat purrs can heal
Found this funny infographic describing how a cat purr can cure cancer….well not really but it can make you feel a little better. Plus we like infographics so why not share it. Purrrrr… “Pet therapy is apparently gaining momentum in many medical communities, and according to Animal Planet’s website, there is scientific research that suggests pet owners live longer than those without pets. It seems that our own animals have the ability to relieve us of our troubles, or at least make our worries seem less important. The bond between pets and their owners may never be fully understood (cats in particular have always struck me as magical and mysterious–and…

Our Wedding / Featured
We are thrilled to finally be sharing our wedding and all of the beautiful details that went into it! I’m so excited to see our big day grace the pages of my favorite wedding magazine, Utterly Engaged (head over to their site RIGHT NOW and pre order your own copy). I cannot wait to get my hands on that puppy and see our wedding in print. It is also featured on Once Wed today, and while I think it’s very far from a “country wedding” as they’re calling it, it’s still fun to see it on there. I’ll be sharing tips and details from the planning process and our day…

Thoughts on having a bad day
Do you ever have those days where you just feel off? Defeated? Just plain sad? For no apparent reason really but everything you do, see and think about just makes you feel down? I did recently and the only thing that made me feel better was to just cry. Cry about how I miss my best friend and my Mom and how they’re too far away to swing by for coffee, how working from home is super lonely and then Adam called and said his car had overheated and broke down and I had to just laugh about it because, of course that would happen. Bad days, we all have…

Our favorite afternoons
On Wednesdays we grab our favorite Gunn & Swain blanket, stop by Starbucks and head to the park with Lola. It doesn’t happen every week, sometimes I have a shoot and sometimes Adam has to be in the store but most weeks we make it happen and it’s one of our favorite things. Lola loves it because she’s obsessed with her ball and being outside. We love it because we get a sweet treat from Starbucks and get to read in peace (after we’ve exhausted Lola from playing, of course). It’s nothing crazy or wildly exciting but we’ve realized that it’s the little things, like going to a local park…

Our Wedding / Hiring a Coordinator
I’m a day late BUT I wanted to talk today about the importance of hiring a wedding coordinator/planner. Waaaay before we even got engaged I knew I was going to hire a coordinator one way or another. I’ve been to enough weddings to know that having one is 1,081,932,387% worth it and I wanted to make sure that our wedding runs as smoothly as possible. Fast forward to our engagement and the wedding planning process, the Beijos girls and I had been working together for about six months by then and I loved them, loved their vibe and I knew we would be the perfect fit…and boy was I right!…
