This past Friday I went out to Fairfax, VA to hang with my seriously cool sister-in-law. We ended up going over to Frying Pan Park to walk around and let D (her 20 month old) roam around. What a fantastic location! A mother’s oasis in the midst of the district’s chaos.
Not sure this kid can get any cuter.
This past Sunday I had the privilege of shooting an engagement session on behalf of Enigma Productions (wedding photography company based out of Blacksburg, VA) at Oatlands Plantation in Leesburg, VA. With Saturday snowing and sustaining barely above freezing conditions I was slightly worried we’d have to reschedule our engagement session. However, Sunday rolled around, the snow melted, the temperature rose (to almost 60!), and the location was absolutely stunning. God couldn’t have blessed us with a more perfect evening. Congratulations to Nora and Taylor!
Nick and I volunteered to photograph the Casting 4 Recovery 2Fly4Hope event this past Sunday at Rose River Farm down in Syria, VA. The 2Fly4Hope Challenge had 12 teams of 2 anglers each. It was a 2-fly tournament, meaning each angler only got 2 flies for the entire day. One of the flies had to incorporate the color pink (for breast cancer awareness). The weather was phenomenal. The turn out and sponsorship was great. The fishing action was steady. Not surprisingly, the people we met were even better than the fishing. Mollie, Kiki, Rose River Farm and the team really put on a fantastic event. We felt fortunate to be a part of such a meaningful cause.

Surprisingly i didn’t take many photos while in NY. I’ll create a post within the next few days of some of the photos I did take, but in the meantime wanted to share these photos from the inside of the Cathedral Church of St. John the Divine.

Okay, so I know I’ve been posting a lot of photos of food lately, but i really can’t help it. My husband has been on a serious gourmet cooking spree. As some of you know this past Sunday was our 1st anniversary. My husband clearly knows how much i love brunch since I woke up to this: hash browns with asiago cheese and roasted red peppers, eggs with aged provolone, basil, onions, chorizo, and sun dried tomatoes.
I know, you’re probably jealous. You should be.
My husband made this dinner for me the other night. He convinces me every day that he’s the gourmet cook in the family. Potatoes with goat cheese and sun dried tomatoes. Chicken with shallots, fig balsamic, garlic and parmesan. YUM!
