Last week I did some desk/office reorganizing to make room for some new samples and I decided to share some new sample books in the next few weeks! I offer guest-sign in albums for my clients because I think they're a wonderful way to display your engagement pictures at your ceremony and reception, while having guests sign happy wedding day messages into your album...such a great keepsake!
Here is one sample album...these images are from Katie and Matt's engagement session...this engagement session was shot awhile ago (Katie and Matt just had a baby boy-yay!), but I still love, love, love this e-session!
This book is an 8x8...several different colors are available and you can choose black or white pages :)
Happy Monday!

This past Wednesday night I headed to the local Santa Barbara Female Entrepreneurs meetup. Some months I'm available to attend and some months I'm out of town, but when I'm in town I always make sure to go...we talk, we laugh, we eat and we drink. So fun! I actually blogged about SBFE when I first started my blog and you can visit that post HERE. This month, our gathering was held at Kristin's new space for her business: The Grapeseed Company. Being a wine fan, I love the backbone of her business: Kristin creates eco-friendly, vinotherapy skin and personal care products from natural ingredients such as grapeseeds that have been discarded by local wine growers! Talk about eco-friendly :) Her store has the most amazing scents and I can't wait to attend her grand opening this Saturday!!
Kristin's awesome storefront!
Doggie products!
Kristin also has a self scent bar where you can create your own scents and she has a baby line!
If you're in town, be sure to stop by on Saturday for the grand opening! Happy Friday :)

101 in 1001 lists are pretty popular...I know I've mentioned my obsession with goal and list making, so of course I have a 101 things to do in 1001 days list! There is something that has been on my list for a very long time...in fact, it's been on there so long that I recently made a new 101 in 1001 list because, well, time slipped away, I suppose. Sheesh.
I have always wanted to get my pilot's license. I don't really have a great reason why, but I just want to and I am very fascinated by planes. So about a month ago, Mike called me excitedly after he left work and asked me to meet him at the airport...
And we got to go flying!
So you're thinking, big deal, I just flew from Cinci to NYC last week. OK, this is waayyy more fun than flying commercially. I was having a hard time justifying to Mike that we should fly first class everywhere...but now I'm starting to have a really hard time convincing him that we should just buy our own plane ;)
This plane actually made a debut on my blog last year (oh, and there's also a super cute couple in the post as well :) )...click HERE to revisit the post!
Um, gorgeous!
I'm sold...I just have to get my pilot's license now!!
It's really awesome to be able to fly over where you live...since Mike and I haven't lived here that long it was nice to see how everything is laid out from the air. These are the "bluffs" that we take Bear to everyday...
Flying over our neighborhood!
You see, flying and me will get along just fine...there are all kinds of checklists...
Yeah, I was pretty excited!
Check back next week...I have a few fun anniversary sessions to blog :) Happy weekend!

I usually reserve Thursday's for my Resource Room posts, but today I have something more important to blog about...
As y'all know, Haiti is near and dear to my heart after my recent trip to Fonds Parisien and Port-au-Prince back in April (to learn more about my trip, click HERE.) Yesterday, Laila, our amazing leader and founder of NRI (www.newrealityinternational.org) announced that the Haitian Christian Mission (where I stayed in Haiti) is partnering with NRI to find sponsors for 5 orphans.
The sponsorship is ONLY $420 for one year and covers education and shelter...if you are at all interested, please visit NRI's website and click on the "sponsorship" menu to learn more. I cannot stress enough how much these children need food and shelter and education.
I think many people and parents out there wish they could pay for their college education or their child's education and in this current economic situation, it is becoming harder and more difficult for folks to do that, so if you can spare $420/year, you can help someone else get an education!!!!
Thanks for listening! :)

A few weeks ago, Mike and I decided to combine a few business trips together and add some fun time in San Francisco, San Jose and Pleasanton/Livermove (and this was all combined with my Napa trip for NAPCP, so it worked out well!).
First stop: San Francisco! About a year ago, Mike and I went to SF as part of our one year anniversary trip so it was fun to come back almost a year later...
Always have to get a few photographs of the Golden Gate bridge :)
The second day of our stay in SF, we had lunch at this little yummy cafe in Nob Hill, where I had some pretty darn good clam chowder...and if you know me, well then, you know that I just loooove clam chowder...no, I didn't eat it seven days in a row in Monterey last year...oh wait, it was me...whoops!
And of course, we took Bear along with us. He is such a great travel dog! We walked a lot more in SF this year than last so he is very worn out in this picture :)
Walking on some trails we found the San Francisco National Cemetery...it reminded me of Arlington National Cemetery...
Then it was off to San Jose for a few family portrait sessions. First stop: shopping! :) We checked out Santana Row which is a really cool shopping area with lots of great restaurants. And we may or may not have driven by Apple headquarters in Cupertino (yes, we are huge dorks!).
Um, I love!
And then we cruised over to Livermore for a wedding and just had to try out a few wineries in the Livermore/Pleasanton wine valley :)
Happy Hump Day!
