I'm up editing several portrait sessions and a wedding. It's Friday night and as much as I want to leave the house for a bit, I have to get up early tomorrow morning and head to Austin for a sweet wedding. I promise to blog about it as soon as I can!

In the meantime I thought I'd share some personal pics from my trip to Paris. I have sooo many pictures from my time there. It would be a shame if I didn't take some time to share some of them with you. One day while I was there, I spent some free time on foot with my camera, some euros to buy train tickets and to buy a yummy nutella/banana/almond crepe. I have to say, the Parisians really know how to relax and enjoy a nice day. Can you imagine? All these beautiful things I saw were just from ONE day of walking around! Enjoy!

Jasmin and Will were sooo completely chill when I shot their engagements. They were laid back, cool and calm. Boy was I in for a big surprise the day of their wedding! It was fantastic! The two of them were ready to celebrate and party the night away as soon as I arrived! Even their big wedding party was ready to throw down...and it wasn't even noon yet!

Check out the third set of images. Isn't Jasmin's mom so cute! For a few moments I set aside my photographer duties to help the bride get dressed. Thanks to Julie Wilhite who helped me shoot this wedding and got the cute shots of my "Love" bracelet as I helped Jasmin get into her gown. A big thank you also to all of Jasmin and WIll's wedding party. Although they were a huge group, they made it sooo easy for me to capture all of them. They were all so happy for Jasmin and Will and so excited to be there for them on their wedding day.

All in all, it was a great day filled with nothing but lots of emotion and lots of love. Enjoy!

While I was in Paris, I also got a chance to go on an engagement shoot with Marissa and Weston Boucher of Boucher Photography. It was a great experience and the couple we shot was totally awesome. What made it even better was how naturally affectionate they were. They also couldn't keep their eyes off each other! Weston and Marissa are wonderful teachers and I absorbed every word and technique into my brain! Enjoy!

I'm back from an incredible week in Paris and I brought back souvenirs, a cough (unfortunately), and a boat load of images (yay!!!)! I learned a lot and also got to know a great group of photographers.

I saw as much as I could in Paris when we had free time. I ate crepes with nutella, bananas and almonds, I fell in love with the paninis and I totally went head over heels for parisian coffee! I'll blog about it more when I post my images from all those ventures. In the mean time, here are just a few images I took at the workshop. Enjoy!

I'm in Paris! So far my trip here has been AMAZING! Today we wrapped up Day 2 of The Boudoir Divas workshop. I have to say that the things I've been learning here are priceless. I've met some really fantastic photographers too. It's really nice and refreshing to meet a group of women who have the same love and passion as I do for photography.  To top it off, I get to explore Paris when we're not in the workshop. I've gotten to see some magnificent things here...from the Notre Dame Cathedral, to the Eiffel Tower, to the Mona Lisa at the Louvre! The Metro system here in Paris is incredibly easy to navigate through. I highly recommend touring the city on your own, rather than paying for one of those hosted day tours.

I cannot wait to show you some of the fabulous images I've captured here at the workshop. For now, here I am at a souvenir shop right outside the Notre Dame Cathedral. Do you see me? Enjoy!
