Wedding: survived!

Anna and I survived our very first (and potentially last) wedding on Saturday! And as far as we can tell, we didn't totally destroy the day for anyone. There's still time, though, I guess.

Here are a few shots from it. I haven't edited any yet. It's much too daunting to start!

Wedding week: blogs

These are my favorite wedding blogs that I USED to read back when I USED to have a wedding blog problem. But I quit cold turkey back then and I'm not going back to that lifestyle. But maybe just a teeny little peek wouldn't hurt, especially if it's for research. (Also, who thinks I could be a wedding blogger in my next life?)

Look at these:

Green Wedding Shoes

Style Me Pretty

100 Layer Cake

Rock 'N' Roll Bride

Ruffled

Wedding week: photographers

On Saturday, I'm going to act as second shooter at a wedding with my friend Anna. This will be her first wedding to photograph, too, so less pressure for me and more for her! I'm trying to remember all the tricks of the trade, and also looking to other wedding photographers for inspiration.

I don't want to rip off anybody's photos, so I'm just going to link to some awesome wedding photographers. Check out their work, and then don't expect mine to look anything like it!

Jess Barfield Photography: Fellow Baylor alum!

Sara and Rocky Garza: Husband and wife team.

Lauren Clark Photography: Did some great engagement photos for a friend of mine.

Love Lee Photography: Had to have Houston represented.

Kelly Moore: Yes, the one who makes the awesome camera bags!

Meet and Produce (trademark pending)

Any patent attorneys out there? Because I'm going to need one. The other day at lunch with coworkers, I came up with a brilliant-beyond-brilliant idea. A singles grocery store! There'd be single servings of food since it's so impossible to cook for one person and you can never eat all the leftovers alone.

We might also have meals for two because of course all the singles are going to meet and fall in love while at our store. So who wants to invest in Meet and Produce, a shopping-for-singles, match-making experience? You better not be stealing my genius idea!

Wanted: maxi skirt

High school me would probably disagree with me now (mostly because these would've been dad-approved and that's SO not cool), but maxi skirts are super cute. Plus, it means no shaved legs needed! I need one immediately.

Jersey.

Super girly.

Tie-dye. I'm probably not hippie enough to pull this off but I really like it for some reason. Also, my stomach looks exactly like that. Just FYI.
