Kory + Errick: Engaged

This couple is very special to me. I have known Kory for over three years now as she was my official "co-worker friend" after college.  I couldn't have been happier when Errick popped the question and they asked me do their engagement pictures.   They decided to take pictures on the west end of town for an urban look then soft it up the second part of the shoot at Piedmont Park.  Congratulations Errick and Kory and may you two have a long and beautiful life as Mr. and Mrs.!

Weekend Love

What I loved about my weekend:

1. The AMAZING morning light that creeps into my small apartment.  

Kona and I have a morning ritual where she realizes that I am leaving and will stop and just stare at me.  So on this pretty morning, she gave me some good photo material to work with.  

This light is honestly so gorgeous!  I wish I could bottle it up and take it with me to all my shoots. 

2. Lazy walks.

Here Kona is recovering from her excursion with her best little friend Paxton.  Me and my good friend Nikki went to a nearby creek where the two fuzzy friends ran in and out of a creek for about an hour.   Kona is a tough one to tire out so it was a successful trip. 

3. Reading first thing on a Sunday morning in bed. 

I just finished up The Help.  As my friends promised, it was a non-stop, can't put me down book. I definitely shed a few tears, I couldn't help it! Now I just have to wait for Brett to finish reading so I can finally see the movie.

4. Filling the blank hours with Pinterest.

Ok, I have to admit, I am totally addicted to Pinterest.   It's become a void filler and menu for me.  This morning as I planned my week's worth of meals, I instantly went to Pinterest to find my saved recipes.  It's actually pretty awesome as I no longer have to save print out of recipes from years past. 

5. Your Dekalb's Farmers Market

About every Sunday, I venture across town (about 10 miles) to my food oasis. I do the type A thing and come baring a list of essentials.  I usually speed up and down the aisle with my list, constantly marking off what I have collected. I have recently really been trying to do a whole foods diet so the Farmer's Market is the perfect place to go and it's incredibly affordable.  This week's new addition is Swiss Chard. I hope it works out... lol.
