The Beautiful Erin (Albuquerque Portrait Photographer)

We finally did it! Our first session was delayed, and our second was almost; but praise the Lord, we were able to skip around the weather! As always I asked if Erin had any fun boxes, or props, possibly her flute (wonderful flute player by the way!). Well sure enough she did!!!(Sadly though no flute)But the others were perfect! I think it might help that she lives with her grandparents and the fact that well old stuff is just great for photographs. Enough of my babbling and lets get to the goods! :)



These next two I are my favorite from the shoot.






Gotta love the sunflares! ;)










P.S. Don't you LOVE her curly hair!?!?!? I do, I have a hair envy with her, one day we will trade because she likes my boring straight hair and I adore her natural bouncy curls! ;)

Birthday Scavenger Hunt

Today my husband left the house telling me to not read a note on the door until I got home from my errand. Well, when I came home I read the note.



I then proceeded to look under the couch and found the next clue. I have to say I am TERRIBLE at scavenger hunts because I texted Josh soooo many times asking for help.




I was lead to the knives, the freezer, the fire place, under the mattress with the reference to the princess and the pea, of course, (which I googled because I completely forgot that story!), in the towels, under the coffee table, my desk...and under the the towels I found The Fall (one of our favorite movies) and after being lead to the desk I found the Terabyte External Hard Drive for my business!



I was also lead to the apartment dumpsters, my visor in my car, which had this clue (my personal favorite) on it:


I loved it because it was reference to the glove compartment! Good one Josh! :)

Another favorite of mine was when I was lead to a verse in a Bible. Josh's clue for that was "a book inside a book and poetry too"

The 21st clue I had trouble finding, but after coming to my senses (and Josh's help) I realized why Josh had hid a puzzle on the bookshelf...because it had a clue on it!!!



I put the puzzle together quickly, well actually too slow for it being a kids puzzle haha. Then on the puzzle it had my final and last clue!



After some silly digging I found these!!



This is all of what my day lead to...but I can't forget to mention the wonderful cookies Josh made me and the sweet letter attached to the shoes. :)


Thank you to my wonderful husband, he is a blessing from the Lord.

P.S. Photos of Whitney are coming soon!

Apples & Alpine

Yesterday I went with two friends, Sandie and Adam to Dixon Apple Farm. I have to admit I had no idea that we had an apple farm so close to ABQ! And after yesterday I think I'm hooked, there is no turning back to grocery store apples...



As we were walking around the farm I really wanted to pick on off a tree and eat it and seriously right as I said that I found this tree with apples!


This here apple is now in my belly...mmm. It was the most delicious apple I've ever had!


The rotten reject apples, but they looked cool.



But don't worry they really are rejects, bees like them!




After we went to the apple farm we drove to Tent Rocks, which is extremely close to the Dixon Apple Farm. I have been here a few years ago but never hiked to the top. I do have to say that the hike up is just as aweosme as the view at the top.


Sandie taking a picture of Adam "climbing"....At one point they asked me to climb up to one spot but after a few attempts I gave up, but that was probably a good idea considering there was a sign before the hike saying climbing is strictly "PROHIBITED" pah...signs, ruining all the fun all the time!







I love random adventure days. :)

Jillian

Jillian is an extremely beautiful woman of God inside and out. She is one of the most caring and loving people I know. She is such a servant to everyone she meets! ...so of course I had an absolute blast with her taking photos! I'm so excietd we found this random tubes of metal hanging out in the middle of the mesa...they made for some great photos! and of course bring along random objects from my house always makes things so much more fun! ;)
