*wedding bells RINGing

I woke up this morning in a creative mood. With my first wedding shoot coming up in only 2 weeks I found myself lying in bed brainstorming ideas of photos I could take for practice, from home ofcourse. All of a sudden, TAH-DAH! I had it: I can take some pictures of mine and Brandon's wedding rings to better prepare for taking the ones at the wedding of the bride and groom's rings. So guess what, that's exactly what I did. I put my creative energy to work and ended up with some pretty interesting photos. [Also a plus: Brandon and I didn't have a wedding (hence, zero wedding pictures) but now we have some pretty cool photos of our rings!]

1970 Cadillac Coupe Deville

This is how we roll when we ride out. Yes- it's true, we are the owners of this sweet ride. Brandon's grandfather gave it to him as a college graduation gift 2 years ago. The car is 40 years old but rides better than any other vehicle I've ever traveled in. No exaggeration here, the ride is smooth. You know the saying "it's as smooth as a Caddy?" It's no joke folks- they are smoother than a baby's butt. The Cadillac motto originated years ago and this car is proof that's it's true. I prefer riding shotgun, although driving this boat is a lot of fun as well. We weren't able to drive it last summer because the carburetor needed to be replaced. Now that it's running we can't wait to get this baby back on the road regularly. Brandon calls it our "date car." I laugh. One quick story before I end this: The first time I rode in the car was with Brandon and Ariston. We broke down in the middle of a very busy intersection (not kidding). Brandon pushed while I 'attempted' to steer the car (power steering went out). We ended up on the side of the road when a woman mechanic twice the size of Brandon came to the rescue! She showed Brandon what needed to be repaired, also throwing in a few car maintenance pointers here and there. Priceless. A memory I'll never forget <3

Autumn begins... (but not really)

I've decided: editing & creating = just as much fun as shooting!
