A little sneak peak...

Have I mentioned that I love my photographer? Wait...yes. I have. Right here.

Well, it's worth repeating. You see, I came home from work today in one of those moods. Girls everywhere know what I'm talking about. Everything in me was screaming, "get in your pajamas as fast as you can!" And I did. It was just one of those days.

Well, when I opened up my laptop I had the best surprise and it almost brought me right out of my funk (I said almost...I am currently in my pajamas laying in bed and it is 7:23 PM). 

I had an email from Ms. Amy Sayre, of Amy Sayre Photography, telling me that I had a photo gallery awaiting me. That is, a photo gallery of my invitations. I had sent her the projects that I've been working on the past few months and I was anxiously waiting for her to tell me she was done. However, since she has a full time job on top of her photography business and she's planning a wedding and she just moved, I was not exactly expecting anything for a while. But that Amy Sayre...she gets me every time. 

So here's a little sneak peak of some of my favorites. I love them and they'll be seen on my website very very soon. 






I love them. And there are way more than this. The best part is that she still has even more to send me. The surprises will keep on coming. Let's hope it's not at the end of another one of those days. 

To end things, here is something productive that I was able to get done today during my good old planning hour at school (planning, schmanning...I've got a fall to-do list to make). 


This is my official fall to-do list. Ahhh, fall. 

I think I'll make progress on two of these tonight. Update the pictures on my website and be in bed by 11 each weeknight. Or in tonight's case, 8 PM.

Conor's Baptism

You may remember Melissa from this blog post. She used me for her baby shower invitations and was my first official customer. She is now my first official return customer as well. She contacted me a couple of months ago and asked if I would do the invitations for the baptism of her son, Conor. Um....yes, please.

What else can I say about this girl that I haven't already said? She is great and I love her. She is one of those people you want around when you have a bad day and you just need to stop, turn to someone, and say, "please say nice things to me now." She would do it and you would immediately feel better.

Mel gave me a price range and a color scheme and let me go to work (have I mentioned that she's super easy to work with?). Here's the final product:


(Confession: I have a really hard time thinking of things to say about each picture. Not just with this blog post, but every single one. I feel like I should have some witty comment or grand statement about the picture. I don't. Forgive me. I will try to get better.)


The best part of the whole process was that after I had dropped off the invitations to her and we were saying goodbye, she says, "Well...I'll be calling you again...maybe for Christmas cards!"

Oh, Mel. You are the best. :)
