Linking Up

Today I've decided to LINK UP to another blog.  That's what the kids call it, isn't it?  The particular blog post I'm, um, linking up with just happens to feature moi, hence the linking.  My beautiful friend and client Mary Kathryn wrote a post about her experience when we shot the engagement pictures for her husband (mentioned in my last post) so I thought it would be fun to hear the story from both the artist and the subject.  Also, here are a few more of the photos from the session...I just can't get enough of them!!

Secrets Revealed!!

Oh, I've kept the most exhilarating secret for so long and now I can tell the world!!  My sweet friend Mary Kathryn, whose blog you can check out HERE, had an amazing idea to slap her gorgeous wedding dress back on and do a photo session as a surprise for her hubby for their anniversary.  How sweet is that?!  If you're so inclined you can read the saga of the wedding dress HERE, it's amazing, hilarious, and not a bit heart-warming.  One of the many fab parts of this surprise is that MK worked so hard to get back into her wedding dress after babies and looked SO amazing, v. proud of her, and jealous of her tiny waist!

We snuck off in the middle of the night (OK, it wasn't the middle of the night but it would make a more intriguing story!) but it was a late Sunday afternoon.  We be-bopped all around downtown Northport and had a ridiculously good time, despite the bugs.  Side note: there are lots of bugs outside when it's 90 degrees...especially when you're wearing a wedding dress, who knew?! (note to self: bring bug-spray next time!).

Thanks to MK for standing on her head when I asked her to and generally being a super good sport, even though I broke one of her "M"s that came from Hobby Lobby.  I know I haven't mentioned the big "T" on here but, if you're familiar, we no longer have a Hobby Lobby, MK is totally obsessed with Hobby Lobby, and I was kind of devastated to destroy such a treasured memento.  Ok, I'm being dramatic, like she said, it was $9.99 and she bought it with a half-off coupon, but still, it's the principle of the matter, no more Hobby Lobby.  The moral of this part of the story is this: everyone write to Hobby Lobby and make sure they reopen in Tuscaloosa!  Anyway, to end on a happy note, here are some stunning images of a stunning woman, inside and out...enjoy!
