Lunch with Robin & Kate


Today I had lunch with some friends at Olive Garden. Kate, Robin, and I cheered together in high school, and I've had the pleasure of shooting Robin's wedding and doing Pre-natal & Newborn portraits of Kate, Matt, and Colton.

Robin is 22 weeks along and looking adorable! SO with her and other former brides of mine being pregnant, I thought it would be fun to see what everyone is up to. So to all my past and present couples,: whether you're pregnant, got a puppy, a new job, new house, etc, send me a picture update to post on my Blog. It will be fun to see and hear all the latest!

My Valentines Weekend...

Hey guys! Well, I have a ton of things to blog about in the weeks to come. Let me start off with my awesome Valentines weekend.

As most of you know, my boyfriend, Brad, lives near Indy. I flew there for a visit over Valentines weekend and we had a ton of fun! This is our second Valentines together and last year we decided to start a tradition of giving "homemade" gifts, and going out to a nice dinner. This year I used all the pictures of us to create a music video and he really liked it...well, now lets just get to the point here.

FrIdAy:
A few times during the day I asked him what we should do that night. He kind of played along and said we should just relax and hang out. Later that day we were watching the Food Network and he turned to me and said, "Okay, well, I may as well tell you because you might begin to wonder, but I'm cooking dinner for you, and I have the whole night planned out so, you can just relax. :)

So, Brad cooked me an amazing dinner! He grilled Sirloin, made Twice Baked Potatoes, and Broccoli. THEN, he made a bowl out of Dark Chocolate and filled it with homemade Mocha Cappuccino Mousse!!!

After dessert Brad handed me a gift bag. The tag said: " 11 'I Love Yous' for later"
I opened the bag and this is what was inside:
Eleven (the 11 thing is another story) handmade, heart shaped soaps. He told me to hold one up to the light. So, I did. And inside each heart was a little note just for me. Of course, I had to USE the soap to get to it-hence the "for later." After that we watched a movie :)

SaTuRdAy:
We drove downtown to Indianapolis to the "Surprise Restaurant." From the moment we started planning my trip to Indy, Brad started looking for the perfect restaurant to take me. Brad enjoys looking for a restaurant that is kind of different and he enjoys ME NOT knowing even more. :) Once we were downtown we approached a quaint old fashion strip of buildings. The restaurant was called The Scholars Inn and from the outside, you would never have known that it was so modern and awesome! :)
At "S.I.," as they call it, we had a four course meal and the best part was the DESSERT! :) Yeah, you're thinking that I would think that, right? Brad had Red Velvet Cake and I had the Lemon Berry Cake. The Red Velvet cake was some of the best I've ever had, and the Lemon Berry cake was like something I've never had. The cake had three layers of vanilla cake and in between each layer was cheesecake (i think) topped with fresh raspberries, strawberries, and blueberries. YUM!
After dinner we met one of my good friend from college, Laura, who came back with us to hang out for the rest of the weekend. Once we got back home we rocked out with World Tour and watched a movie.

Monica's Photoshoot

My very good friend from college was married in November, and I had the privilege to stand in her wedding. Monica and I met our freshman year of college and had most of our art and photography classes together. Monica and I love shooting together so, to be in her wedding and see how beautiful she made it was very exciting. Since I was in the wedding, I wasn't able to shoot as much as I normally would at a wedding, but I managed to sneak in some really fun and elegant shots. She is freakin' gorgeous too...I think you'll see that in the following images. Just wanted to share and thought you all might enjoy. ~Dana

p.s. She even HAND MADE her veil! Monica is one of the best at mastering those perfect little details. :)

Youngest Member of Congress

This post has nothing to do with my business and is not intended to express a political opinion whatsoever. I enjoy reading and watching news articles on Yahoo.com most mornings. I came across this Yahoo News Video and thought it was really neat that someone so young really just went for it. I guess being a young entrepreneur has really shown me that anyone regardless of their age can really succeed when they put their mind to something. Enjoy! Aaron Schock
