NYC Trip :)

So back in November, I was so busy, I was in desperate need of some sister time, so I went to NYC to do just that :) She has lived there for 7 years now, so I have been there quite a bit, and I love it just as much, every time. We also decided to get away for a couple days and take a trip to Connecticut. We went to some wineries and walked around Mystic Seaport (where Kourtney and Kim just went ;)), that will be on a later blog. I also wanted to share some other things that will be going on in the new year. I am taking a trip to Austin next week to visit my cousin and cannot wait to take a million pics, and just be outside! I am also going to Las Vegas next month to go see some photographers I have been following for quite some time, and am sooo in love with their work! I can't wait to share all these new things in the next couple months. I will also be updating my website and working on some fun projects with some other local businesses in the area :) For now, here is the story of my trip, from my 5D and Iphone photos ;)

Meet Ellie, my sister's adorable dog!

The first night we took a little trip to Brooklyn, if you look closely to the pic on the right, the tables and chairs are on the ceiling :)

The next day we decided to head to a flee market in Williamsburg, I LOVED it!!!

I wished soo bad I could have taken this stuff on the plane home with me. I was imagining using these for props in some shoots!!! So cool.

Saw these cool guys on a balcony sunbathing :)

Then it was off to Manhattan!

These brownstones are my fav annnd remind me of Sex and the City :)

Another one of my fav spots, Rockefeller Center...It might have something to do with Home Alone 2 ;)  They had the tree up, but it wasn't decorated yet!

Last but not lease, Cafe Lalo, the best/cutest desert place EVER. And yes, it was in You've Got Mail ;)

YUM :)

Me and my sis :)

On a side note...One of my new years resolutions was to run the half marathon, so now I am going to force myself to work out (which i've been doing amazing well at) and get my hair done. Happy Tuesday!

Garrett + Heidi | Love Shoot

Garrett and I had a business class together back at Western, I hadn't seen him for years, until I moved back from Chicago. Then he emails me to tell me he in engaged! I was so happy when he asked if I would do his engagement pics, and I couldn't wait to meet Heidi! We braved the cold, it was a nice sunny day, and these two couldn't be any cuter. I am so excited for you two, I wish you nothing but the best and I hope you like your sneak peek! :)

My fav :)

Maria + Jason | Maternity Shoot

Maria and I have been emailing back for quite a while, she really wanted snow in her pictures, but mother nature had other plans. Instead, we had a nice sunny day, and I think it was perfect. I love love love doing maternity photos, Maria was glowing, and they both looked so excited. I can't wait to meet your little one, and it was so great to meet both of you! I hope you like your sneak peek, and I will see you soon! xoxo

Travis | Newborn Shoot

Val and I used to be on the dance team together in high school, and now she has a baby! It is crazy how things change, but I am so so happy for her and Matt. Travis is a little cutie, and Matt, let's just call him the baby whisperer. Val said he is so good with Travis, he will be crying and Matt will just sing him a song and he immediately stops, I had the pleasure of witnessing one of these songs :D I am so excited for you guys, and all the new memories you are going to have with your little one. I hope you had a great first Christmas together, and hopefully I will see you again soon! ;)

Our friend Betsy made the hat to the right, I LOVE it!
