When Amanda asked me to shoot an at home session with her and John I was more than ecstatic and jumped at the idea. We also thought it was a great idea to do a baking photo sesh and when all fell into place, my photography eye reveled at all the cute details Amanda had in store but unfortunately, the other eye (the hungry one) knew that everything was hands off. They had this ridiculously cute home that was so "homey" and to top that off an absolutely awesome kitchen to boot! Amanda and John certainly had their eye candy on each other, I mean after all, they were high school sweethearts. Amanda was more than quick to say that she was one of those cool freshman's with senior friends (yes Amanda, you're too cool ;o) ). 10 1/2 years later John asks and Amanda said "Yes". This year they celebrate their 1 year anniversary. Actually, today is their anniversary so let's just say CONGRATS John & Amanda!
Can't wait for another session with you guys in the woods! J/k, we'll be near civilization...I promise.
Let me give you a little premise about this post: our dive (our first beach dive) consisted of a California sea lion play "biting" on my fins. My girlish reaction kicked in and I get freaked out a bit. Anyway, my cousin hears of this incident and says that he admires (or was it envies?) how despite school and our beloved photography business I have free time to do "all this cool stuff" (his words). I read this over breakfast and 2 cups of cappuccino with the husband this morning.
I try to make the most out of life: every minute spent doing what me and Lawrence both love to do is something I feel so blessed with. The fact that me and Lawrence can share and enjoy certain hobbies is actually a blessing in itself. So while there are the big moments and even the small ones that grace our lives, be it taking an after dinner stroll along the block, movie nights or sitting in coffee shops having breakfast over great conversations, I think we're in a very good position to say that whatever we do...it's all cool stuff because it makes us happy and appreciative of life.
