i was surprised to get a little package in the mail with more wedding cards and this little homemade gift from my mom! she made this super cute halloween bunting to decorate my non-holiday-looking apartment. i have to say, october is one of my favorite months. want to know why?? because my birthday is in 28 days! and i'll be turning the oh so coveted 2-1. not really that coveted... but i will be one year older and wiser too. :)

FALL is such a gorgeous time of the year! i can't get over how adorable these photos are. i love my job and i love getting to know different couples and their love stories.

want to see more? i'd love it if you stopped by and said hello! 

i feel like we've been married longer than a month! we're settled into our apartment and busy bees with school (and possibly being obsessed over the tv series White Collar...) but it has been happiness living with this man of mine. i cannot wait to see our wedding photos (!!!) they're coming in the mail soon...

this weekend i traveled with my professional imaging class to west yellowstone. we stayed at my teacher's cabin in island park and spent saturday in yellowstone. it was so fun getting to know all of my peers and learning from their photography talents along with sharing mine. my teacher had a few seniors meet up with us saturday morning and we practiced shooting senior portraits in different types of lighting. my favorite, of course, is natural lighting. the models were great to work with and so fun! i'm excited to post my favorites on my photography blog and more on facebook (definitely check those out if you're interested in seeing them!)

we were constantly on the go and busy doing fun things but i was exhausted by the end of the day. i missed kevin so much! i loved coming home to my husband anxiously waiting, a clean apartment and lit candles. he's a keeper.
