re: featured in exquisite weddings!
I got a chance to be interviewed for an article about Trash the Dress sessions by Equisite Weddings as well as have a few of my images in the article (the first image is actually from Nate Kaiser I believe though)! I think the issue hits stands next month, so check it out if you can. :) (So exciting for me because this is actually a dream come true – I’ve been published in a magazine for real!)

re: the polaroid show.
If you didn’t catch my last random thoughts, I am going to be in a polaroid art show this coming Sept 6-27 in LA! (Another dream come true!) I’d love it if you could check it out (the show is free) :D I’m still trying to decide which polaroids I want to go up, which is a hard decision, considering that I took about 80 this past week

re: the wedding.
Congrats to my beautiful friends, Cynthia & Derek for getting married last weekend! It was so much fun, seeing all my friends that I haven’t seen in a long time, and hanging out with them all and having fun. :) The wonderful Amanda who coordinated the wedding has a few photos on her blog that she and her husband took, one of which is me giving my speech! Funny story – when I got up there for my speech, I was greeted by a WALL of video lights and photographers and it freaked me out, so instead of facing the crowd when I gave my speech, I just turned to Cyn & Derek instead, which made it MUCH easier for me. :) Now I know how all you feel with the cameras in your faces! ;) I can’t wait to see the images that Stephanie took! :D

re: dear san diego.
I wish you had colder weather so I could wear my winter coats and scarves and boots and mittens, which I miss doing so. I also miss trees than change color in the fall (my favorite season) and falling leaves. Please fix this asap. Thank you :)

re: movies.

Totally chick-flick & predictable, but I recently saw and loved the movie Penelope. It’s like Amelie & Pushing Daisies in it’s style (which I LOVE) and it’s totally adorable. Loved the music too. :) And James McAvoy doesn’t hurt either ;)

Totally off-beat and really existential, but I Heart Huckabees is pretty funny and enjoyable too. My favorite dialouge is about the meadow at dusk. :) I actually watched this movie three years ago and didn’t “get” it, because I wasn’t in the right mental state of mind I guess. But watching it again, it makes so much more sense, and is funnier that way. :)

re: music.
Been totally hooked on Sigur Ros (Takk album the most), Joshua Radin (he has new songs on his myspace!) & Schuyler Fisk lately. I saw Joshua Radin last week the day I came back from LA and he is amazing live, and I will have to make a post about it when I get a chance. :)

re: fedoras.
I. Love. Them.

re: inspiration.
01 :: anthropologie.
I seriously can’t get enough of this store.

02 :: journals.
I’ve discovered that I am very picky about them – I only like a certain type of paper to write on (too smooth and I don’t like it) and things like that.

03 ::  dandelions.
They’re just so childlike.
