Here’s a look at what we’ve been up to the last couple of weeks:

I am so lucky to have such amazing friends in my life that I’ve met in the wedding industry!! I got the chance to head back to Cincinnati to second shoot for my friend Jessie and while it was hot, we had the most amazing time celebrating Josie and Silas’s wedding day!!

I’ve missed being able to hang out with friends. Just calling them up and saying “let’s go here!” Well I put my foot down and made a plan for a pool day with my friends Abbie and Cait. We had the besssst time and it was so good to just hang out and have girl time. Cait also introduced me to my new favorite wine, so YAY!!

Guys…GUYS! I got the chance to put together a shoot I have been talking about doing for over a year with my planner friend Lisa. The shoot turned out to be so laid-back, stress-free, and fun and we had the most amazing vendor team that knocked it out of the park. Second, Lisa is simply wonderful and I find so much joy working with her!! I may just stare at these photos forever!

I was contacted by one of my past grooms to help surprise his Mrs. with a vow renewal down near our house. It was a lot of last minute planning, but Operation Surprise Ana was a success!! She truly didn’t know, as when I walked up, she hugged me and asked if I was there to meet with another couple at the venue that was there planning their wedding with the coordinators. 😂

Welp, school shopping finally happened. I’d been putting it off as I didn’t think Jackson would truly be going back the 29th. I guess I should have waited just a couple more days because this evening it was said that our county won’t be doing in-person classes until at least August 5th now. Weeeeee!!

Much love friends,
