Rice Krispie Roll Ups

Typically I am not a fan of rice krispie treats but I found a version that I find myself inhaling…nom nom…  This is a treat too good not to share!  And you can be sure if it’s a recipe coming from me, it’s almost always fool proof;)rk1

Garibaldi’s Catering

I don’t know about you but my favorite thing to make for dinner is…reservations!  That being said it was terrific fun to have Chef Garibaldi come over and guide 7 of us couples through yummy chicken marsala and chicken cacciatore dishes.  Not only is Kevin a great chef but he knows how to teach as well…he does have years of teaching high schoolers after all!  Thank you Kevin for your patience,humor and mad cooking skills!  I just hope my husband doesn’t expect too much from me now:P

Breanna Megan Studio {artist}

When the girls and I were planning last-minute details for our trip to Vegas, we realized we wanted to try to fit in a shoot together.  So a week before we left (crazy, right?!) I made some calls in search of someone willing to model.  What we ended up with was so much more than we could have expected on such short notice!  

Meet Bre of Breanna Megan Studio.  Bre was getting ready to launch her website and needed images of her new 2013 art collection being released this Spring.  Licensed with the largest wall decor manufacturer in the Unites States, Breanna creates collections sold across North America.  Her work is an absolute reflection of her.  Like her art, she brings joy and charm to whatever room she’s in.

The Dellinger Wedding

There was nothing but love in the air on the day of Aaron and Deepa’s wedding.  Well, to be honest there was plenty of wind but it seemed to spread the love around that much more;)  

Vibrant peacock details were scattered throughout as a nod to Deepa’s Indian culture.  I read somewhere that peacocks are a symbol of integrity and the beauty that can be achieved when we endeavor to better ourselves and better our lives.  How fitting as they begin their journey together.

Because of a tight schedule Aaron and Deepa choose to see each other for a few moments before the ceremony.  This was such an amazing moment to photograph.  The anticipation, the intimacy, the emotion…  Such an incredible memory for them to have of their special day.
