what’s up with us

Happy Friday, blogstalkers!!
On Wednesday, I facebook confessed that the rain had messed with my portrait session schedule, and I wasn’t going to have any new client photos to share. I asked you (wait… you’re not friends with me on Facebook? You SHOULD BE.) to tell me what you’d like to read on the blog instead.
I...

mcg in chicago

(Pssst… due to the popular demand of several teacher-y types who regularly read the blog and are now back to getting up at the crack of dawn, blogs will go up at 6 a.m. whenever possible. I try to take care of my peeps. )

Happy Wednesday, blogstalkers!
Today, I’ll be sharing a few of...

Dot is 4 months old

Dear Dorothy -
I really can’t believe how big you’re getting. Sometimes I look at you, and my mouth just kind of hangs open for a minute. I mean… you were just born like a week and a half ago, it seems. Then again, we can’t really remember what life was like without you. We’re complete...

notice : out of the office

Hey there guys & gals!!
By the time this blog goes live, Mack and I will already be up in the air somewhere over America’s heartland, on a plane bound for Chicago.
We’ve got a wedding to shoot, and a Cubs game to see, and I pinky-swear that we’ll be returning with lots and lots of goodies...

cypress street station

Cypress Street Station, downtown Abilene, early spring

Thanks for the picture, Micah!
The restaurant was already pretty empty at 8:30, because it was a Thursday and the weather was bad. I sat by the window, checking my hair in the reflection every 37 seconds or so, and waited.
He was late. He was always late.
The waitress kept coming...

what a great weekend

Really.
Just a wonderful, wonderful weekend.
In our line of work, getting full weekends off is rare. We don’t mind… it goes with the territory.
But this weekend was set aside specifically to spend just doing stuff we wanted to do.
On Friday, we let my mom keep Dorothy so that Mack and I could take Jack...

the best version of us

As some of you know (well, now ALL of you know), we’re working on a complete rebranding campaign. We’ll be launching the new brand in January, and hopefully have lots of fun little surprises to go along with it. Our work and commitment to our clients will remain the same, but we’ll have a more...

this & that (& availability update)

Happy Friday, blogstalkers!
Today’s post is a little of this & that. I wanted to share pictures of my new office (which I’ve been in since May, and just haven’t gotten around to showing you), as well as our new GORGEOUS couches. I’m also tossing in a few pictures of Jack with his cousin, because, well,...

Dottie is 3 months old!

(I apologize to those who are getting tired of hearing about my kids. I give you ZERO hope that theses posts will stop… but apologize, nonetheless. )

You will lose your baby teeth.
At times, you’ll lose your faith in me.
You will lose a lot of things,
But you cannot lose my love.

You may lose your...

McG’s favorite holiday

Independence Day is Mack’s Christmas.
He plans for a year… he talks all the time about how he can’t wait… he has a countdown, once it gets under a month away. He has to resist the urge to stop at every single fireworks stand (and sometimes, not resist).
And then, it’s here. The 4th of July. And...
