Ashley + Joey










Ashley and Joey have been together for 10 years and married for 2! They started dating when she was only 14 and a freshman in high school. Crazy how time flies!




Sarah





Recently took pictures of this beauty. Seriously. Look at her. She's gorgeous! She decided to wear a delicate, vintage nightgown and a floral crown that I'm absolutely obsessed with. I love being a photographer. :)



Time Flies!

I can't. They go too fast.

(high five if you get the joke. I have Dr. Fort to thank for that.)

So, I have done a superb job of neglecting this blog this semester. My last semester of college was a whirlwind of stress, emotions, and success. I had two gallery shows, one of which was in an art truck at one of Fort Worth's fine food truck parks, and that's where most of my time and energy went. I graduated with my BFA in Photography and it feels so weird to have a degree now. Like I can frame it and look at it. It's official! A lot of hard work, time, & effort, blood, sweat, & tears went into getting to this point, but it's oh so worth it in the end! These are a few of the photos from my shows:




Over the last couple months, I narrowed down what field of photography I want to work in and found that live music/concert photography is what makes my heart sing (no pun intended). After shooting at a couple shows, I knew that that's what I would want to do with my life. Now is the perfect time to do it since I have nothing to tie me down to any one location. If Justin Timberlake showed up in front of my house in a tour bus and told me to get in and bring my camera with me on tour, I WOULD. This isn't the most practical career for people who have significant others, children, pet children, etc., so why not do it while I can?!







My goal is to try and bring this blog back to life. I'm going to be posting more, taking more pictures, going to more concerts, and cooking up new recipes for everyone to love. I'll also be posting about my job hunt adventures. So far, emails have been sent out and I'm twiddling my thumbs whilst I wait for responses. It's nerve-wracking, but I guess this is part of being in the real world!

On a completely different note, here are some awesome free finds I discovered during move out! I'm obsessed with these.


How fun is this tribal print?! I'm planning on turning this into a camera bag!

You can never have too many TCU things around the house. Go Frogs!


baby haley

Today, I got to go to my friend, Kelly's, house and take pictures of this little cutie pie, Haley! Now, I've never taken pictures of babies before, but this was fun because Haley was such an energetic ball of joy! :)



Chocolate chip cookies

Bake ALL the cookies!

(how 'bout that boss meme drawing I did!)

And that's exactly what we spent the entire day doing.

My best friend, Chelsea, and I were taking pictures when we decided that some freshly baked chocolate chip cookies sounded like the PERFECT snack. Well, we now have enough snacks for the next two weeks... We ended up baking five dozen cookies by accident (yay for reading the recipe wrong!) and now have more cookies than we know what to do with! It's okay, though, because these cookies are wonderful and soft and the perfect sweet treat! I'm sure my parents won't mind me bringing these babies home. ;) 


And, of course, a special thanks goes out to our kitty helper, Kira. :)

Now if you'll excuse me, I need to run off some of these cookie calories!


The Black Rooster Bakery + Chocolat

On Thursday, I decided to go to the Black Rooster Bakery for breakfast before meeting up with some friends at TCU.  That morning, Southern Living Magazine was doing a photoshoot there! How exciting!
I got there at around 9:30am and walked into the bakery and just inhaled the delicious air. My stomach is growling just thinking about! All the fresh pastries looked equally amazing from the Pecan Cinnamon Rolls (my personal favorite!) to the lovely galettes! I decided to try something new and went with the French Toast Muffin. After getting that, heating it up in their microwave, and getting a cup of their delicious fair trade organic coffee (which was free that morning! I love free!), I went outside to eat it while I read a book. It was hard being patient while I took my own photos of my tasty breakfast.




The top of the muffin was covered in these amazing little bite size pieces of brioche bread. I love pulling off the little chunks and popping them into my mouth. Super messy, but another customer and I both agreed that that's the best way to eat it! Every little bite was perfect and just as sweet as it needed to be. It was melt-in-your-mouth good and the perfect balance between crunchy and soft. I only finished about half of it before I went inside to get out of the heat and enjoy some more of it in the air conditioning. I kept eyeing those fabulous pecan cinnamon rolls that were calling my name. So.... I gave in. I figured it would be nice to bring home and share it with my parents (okay, okay... you caught me... it was my sneaky plan so I could eat some of it too..). Another cup of coffee and another pastry later and I still had some time to kill. So I decided to chat it up with some of the lovely people around me. I got to meet a friendly French teacher who is actually French! He said that the bakery was the best French bakery he had ever been to in the States! I also got to talk to Southern Living Mag's photographer and another really sweet, fabulous lady. I love meeting new people. Even if you never see them again, it's so great to talk to someone new and hear a little piece of their story. It absolutely made my morning!


 


I hope I'm not making y'all TOO hungry with all these pictures! (& thanks to Pugly Pixel for the photo layout I used above!) I would have snapped a few pics of that pecan roll, but my parents were all over that when I got home! That's okay, though. I still had the rest of that fab muffin to finish!

Speaking of sweet things, I just picked up two new books yesterday! I got Chocolat and its sequel, The Girl With No Shadow by Joanne Harris. Chocolat is one of my favorite movies and soundtracks, which I am currently listening to while I write this. If you're curious to know what it's about, here is a review and description on Amazon.

Long story short, I seriously recommend the Black Rooster Bakery in Fort Worth. Check out the website and read a little bit about the bakery and how they make the bread! You and your tummy won't regret visiting them! Happy Saturday, folks! :)
