I assisted at a wedding on Saturday - it was a great because it set my mood for wedding season and gave me a little practice run through for Nissi’s big day this weekend (YAY NISSI!!). Its also nice because I can keep a few select images to play around with, like this one. Take a look for a few more images.

After spending Friday night grilling out with friends, and Saturday, second-shooting at a wedding, we ended our weekend outside in the rain. Sunday was supposed to be a great day - Roman Street was scheduled to perform on one of the four stages at the 3-day Hangout Music Fest in Gulf Shores. It was the largest music festival ever to be held right on the beach. I had planned my outfit for a perfect suntan - little did I know, I would be hunting down a warm hoodie to buy and a place to seek shelter for about 7 hours. The rain (along with tornado & other storm warnings) delayed the whole event and caused for our stage to be postponed indefinitely. The Festival made the most of it, though, as it opened its doors for free to let all those that would brave the barely-clear weather to see the final acts, like Ray LaMontagne and Ben Harper. We made the best of it, too, enjoying the company of our friends and keeping each other warm (which I certainly didn’t mind. Haha!).

We have a full week ahead of us - high school graduations and Nissi & Brian’s big day. Its a good week for celebrations!

Also, here’s one last pic of Andrew’s graduation - its the whole family, minus Nik.

First, I finished the book, Water for Elephants, by Sara Gruen. It was very cool: interesting & unique. There are a few parts that were a little risque, but other than that - thumbs up! I have just started the most wonderful book - Snow Flower and the Secret Fan by Lisa See. Its about a life-long friendship that starts between two Chinese girls during their foot-binding years. I’m loving it so far.

Anthony & Cynthia’s pics are finished - you can check them out here.

My dear ‘ol friend, Carrie, had me do some pics of her precious Olivia while I was in Springfield. She turns one on Sunday and she is sooo cute. More photos here.

Yesterday, I got to meet Emma Grace, Katie & Micheal’s baby. She is very sweet! So little at just 3 days old! I also booked a wedding in Colorado & its coordinating reception that will be right outside of LA in July! Yay! How fun! Weddings, babies, weddings, babies!

Now…if I could just get to the grocery store….

Friday was spent at Evangel University’s graduation. Congrats to my baby brother, Andrew, who graduated from college! He makes Anthony & I look so small in this picture!

After graduation lunch, Anthony & Cynthia & I headed out to do an engagement shoot. The images aren’t completely ready yet, but here’s one sneak peak. I’ll post another link later.

On Saturday, we hosted a bridal shower for Cynthia. All the planning and hard work paid off - it turned out beautifully. Lyndsey, Becca & Cheri were amazing! They helped my mom and I pull it all together. I am lucky to have such great friends who go the extra mile for me and my family. You can see more images of the shower here.

Later that day, I shot a few images for my dad. He needed a picture for a magazine article, so I was happy to oblige. You can see a few more pics of ‘ol Tommy here.

I have more to come from my trip: Mother’s Day, Anthony & Cynthia, and Carrie’s Olivia. PLUS all the things that happened in Alabama while I was gone, Katie had a baby girl and Sonya found out she is having a boy! Seriously - this weekend was crazy!
