In This House...

Here is the newest addition to my ever-changing fireplace mantel!  I received this sign as a Christmas gift.  I discovered it while searching around Etsy one day.  I think they are good rules a household should follow, don't you?    

Happy Valentine's Day!

I'm not gonna lie...as 'commercial' as it is, Valentine's Day is a favorite of mine! Maybe it's all the pink...or the sweets...

I saw some cookies on Pinterest, and I HAD to give them a try! Here are the results!

I took just a basic sugar cookie recipe, divided it into four, then added food coloring to each mini batch of dough.

I couldn't let the little bits of leftover dough go to waste, so I mashed it all together and got a little crazy!

Hope your Valentine's day is full of love!

Rain, Rain...

We are FINALLY supposed to get a little snow here in KC. I'm happy about that. For now. Ask me after I have to drive to and from work in it! ;)

We had some pretty intense rain storms recently however...here are some shots from them!

Camera Bags. My Newest Obsession.

Thanks to my photographer father, I have become obsessed with finding the 'perfect' camera bag! As I have discovered there is no ONE perfect bag, there are MANY perfect bags! See, it really depends on the situation...right?? :)

Here is my latest bag, the Kelly Moore Classic bag! I LOOOOVE it. What I love, is that it holds a lot of gear, but it is also pretty and 'purse'-like. There are some situations where you don't want to scream 'Hey, look at me! I'm a photographer!'. Instead, it calmly informs that you've got some serious style!

There are several colors and styles to choose from, I thought I'd get the most use out of this gorgeous grey!

It's got a fancy dust cover for when it's not in use.

Look at all of that room inside! These are my standard lenses that are always with me on a shoot, and I have no problem fitting them inside! I also love the slim profile of this bag. Who wants to feel like they are carrying bulky square luggage while walking around?? Not this girl!

Pinning!

Are you on Pinterest? Come on over and follow me! Let's have some fun!

merry. and bright.
