Hard at work!

I have been so busy lately, but I set a goal to completely revamp my photography website http://momentscapturedbyjess.com/ and I did it! Yay, it is so beautiful that I can't stop checking it out. I have also included a photo blog to add quicker updates as to what I have been doing, give the client a preview, etc. That is at http://capturedmoments-jess.blogspot.com/ On top of all that I have put an ad into a local newspaper. Check it out!


My Best Friend's Wedding!

I was even the maid of honor!



My friend from high school Amy got married last weekend and it was a fun filled weekend of activities. Thursday was the rehearsal (when I realized exactly what I had gotten myself into (walk in front of a ton of people I don't know down a staircase and through grass with pointy heels on, plus bridal bouquet holding during the ceremony and dress fluffing every time she moved.) Then we had dinner at My Big Fat Greek restaurant...yum. Friday Amy, the other bridesmaid Emily and myself went to get massages and they were also delicious. I was always afraid to try them but now I hooked. Then we met up with some other girls and had pizza and calzones at La Bocca's... yum yum. The wedding day we got all our hair and make up done together, in between which I was taking as many pictures of the details and such as I could. I wanted to take so many more since Amy was drop-dead gorgeous but I was trying not to get in the other photographers way. Plus, I don't think she would have liked if I walked down the aisle with my camera. When I didn't have my camera, I could feel myself aching to have it in my arms, she was so incredibly beautiful and her eyes just drew you in. Check it what I was able to capture!

Still lucky!

Okay we have run into a little rough patch in our lives recently, one of the many reasons I have not posted lately, besides my best friends wedding, work picking up at the end of the school year getting my website updated, putting an ad in the newspaper for my business, and starting an easier to update photography blog. Through these last few weeks, besides all of the fun stuff I mentioned above, it has a little difficult to remember just how blessed we still are. A recent photo shoot with my amazing sister-in-law Jenny http://itsthesweetthings.blogspot.com/ has helped us realize that no matter what happens, we still have and adore each other. Enjoy every little moment!
