Hi Derrick!

Photobucket



There are lots of oil derricks in Texas, especially in East Texas where I'm from. When I was little every time I would see one I would wave at it and say "Hi Derrick!" like it was my friend. My mom says that she would always hear me from the back seat - "Hi Derrick!", "Hi Derrick!", "Hi Derrick!". I've just always loved them!

So on the way home from a shoot the other day Marissa and I jumped out of the car to get these. An oil derrick and a Texas sunset - you just can't beat that.

Yellow Rose

I loved getting to shoot this, the yellow rose has personal meaning to their family so it was just really special.

Jared - Ace of Cakes

Sunday was Jared's birthday (26!) so Friday he decided that he wanted to make his birthday cake "Ace of Cakes" style. (Just google some of their cakes, they are awesome). So Saturday when we went to the store to get the supplies Jared saw a G.I. Joe toy like the ones he had growing up, little did that G.I. Joe know what his fate would be!

When it comes to cooking/baking skills lets just say I rank around the terrible/awful level, so my friend Marissa came over to help (her bakery is going to be called "The Flour Shop" - how cute is that!). Jared picked red velvet, so red velvet it was!

Ooooo, double layer. Tricky.

Marissa has skills. So, after the cake itself was finished Jared took over the decorating. He too has skills.

Nice. But what would a bloody dismembered army guy cake be without...

Camo of course. Needless to say if we have boys I think this is a preview of many cakes to come. Happy Birthday Love!!

Galloway Family

I completely fell in love with the Galloway family this weekend, I'm still going through all of the images but these of little Cohen are some of my early favs. I just wanted to put him in my pocket and take him home!

If you haven't read this book...

... you totally should. It just makes you feel good (and it's a really quick read).

L-o-v-e

After an afternoon with these two my new favorite things are mother/daughter sessions! Aside from locking my keys in my car three seconds after I got there everything was great (thank goodness I had my camera around my neck when I got out!)

The cutest hello kitty boots, and after I took a few snaps of them she said "And now from the side?". Girl after my own heart!
