Welcome to Life Stories...

Welcome to My Life's Story! Mine is made up of so many wonderful people-purposfully woven together! Everything we do is with and for each other and I am so glad that you have taken the time to stop by- so grab your favorite cup of coffee and Enjoy!

What I love most: my family, my friends, my son's giggles when he thinks he is getting away with something... great conversation, anything with a good title, bold coffee, anyone with a zest for life, exciting and fresh ideas, anything crafty, getting my hands dirty, dancing in the rain and weddings! (all weddings!)

I am happiest: when I can share what I see through a lens. Just as there are no two people alike, neither are views on life. I strive to uniquely photograph any event or person so their style can easily be seen.

"Life Happens... Picture it Boldly!"

Would love to hear from you~ If you would like to leave a comment feel free or email me at

White Trash Wedding Bash...

So this weekend Geoff and I had the pleasure of attending a White Trash Wedding Bash with one of my November wedding couples, Andrea & Jeff. The name of this party says it all... They did this as a couples engagement party and I would recommend this as just a weekend get together- it was that much fun. But I have to admit I was a little nervous about going becuase I only knew our mutal friends Amber and Don (Lily's mom & dad) and didn't really know what to expect. But I did have fun putting our costumes together... yes, everyone dressed up! We went as "Awful Waffle" employees. I was 20 mos pregnant (according to my hubby) with a stylish side pony tail and bright blue eye shadow.. and of course I was equipped with beer in hand. Everything was decorated like the trailers of all my friends back home... It was a riot to see how creative everyone got and lord knows I haven't seen so many bubba hats, shirts and teeth in one place since my last family reunion... Rebel flags flyin', Skynard loudly playing on the stereo and plenty of BBQ! There was also plenty of beer pong (I think they were working on making it an Olympic Sport) and slip-n-slide action going on to entertain even the most conservative at heart. I think the thing I most enjoyed was an afternoon with a really awesome group of friends just having a good ole time! We def have to do this again soon. More to come soon....

Can't wait for the wedding. See ya'll there! ~S.
