    June 15, 2016

      Hi there, ACB readers! Yay, it’s Wednesday! Between you and me I’m ready for Friday to get here so I can get out on the road to have some fun with my little family.  This week has been so stressful that I.AM.READY.NOW!

    Behind the Lens: photographer and children’s book author, Beryl Ayn Young [Interview]

    June 6, 2016

    “The bigger message is how photography can be a connector. It can help us discover amazing things about ourselves, it can connect us closer to our kids, and to our world. It’s an amazing tool for hope, happiness, and healing.” – Beryl Ayn Young Reading is one of our favorite activities in our home. My little girl loves to read alone and loves to be read to more than anything. {Okay, maybe not more than creating artwork.} Back in May, I met photographer Beryl Ayn Young and author of the new children’s book, Phoebe The Photographer: Gets a Camera (Paperback; $12.48 via Amazon.com). Beryl and I are members of one…

    #BTS: Styled dinner at 48 Fields

    May 3, 2016

    Two weeks ago, I joined a few of my creative friends at 48 Fields, a Northern Virginia wedding venue nestled in Leesburg just a few minutes outside of the city. And last week, I shared some of the photos from the venue / event (Sunday Styled Dinner at 48 Fields), but I wanted to share the rest of the behind the scenes snaps so you can get the full experience. {Now, I did take some photos on my pro camera, which I am yet to edit and post, but no need to wait until then.} I will definitely be editing it soon… Below are some of the behind the scenes…

    February 17, 2016

    You know that feeling of dropping off your film at the print shop and you start counting down the minute until the hour you have to pick up your photos? Yup, that’s the feeling I’ve had for a few weeks now waiting for the pictures from the styled shoot to come back. A few weeks ago, I had such a pleasure of working with some amazing photographers on a winter styled shoot in the snow. I shared all the behind the scenes action with you here on the blog. {click here to read full post on #BTS action from the shoot!} See photos from each photographer from the shoot:  Brittany Drosos…
