I'm in a book- an honest-to-god-for-sale-on-Amazon BOOK!

Here is the Amazon link, if anyone is interested in purchasing a copy. It has some really great information on planning a stylish wedding for less for all you 2010 brides.Thanks to the lovely Catherine Sabino for writing such great text and for including my images and some of my words in the pages!

My great friend Beth Helmstetter, planner extraordinaire, is also featured in the book- she gives planning advice and talks about Christa and Travis's Hartley Botanica wedding from last year.

Southern Wedding Magazine

The lovely ladies over at Southern Weddings Magazine used a few of my images in their November 2009 issue! They had their release party last Friday and it was a huge success. Congrats girls, the issue looks amazing from what I've seen so far!!! Seeing my images in print is never going to get old!!! Not to mention being printed along side some of my inspiration- like Elizabeth Messina. So exciting..

Halloween 2009

Outstanding in the Field : Wattles Farm

Earlier this month my best friend since I was one, Aubrey, and her Outstanding in the Field crew came through Los Angeles to host their last dinner of their 2009 tour at Wattles Farm. I've talked about Outstanding in the Field before but if you've never heard about what they do check their site out or buy a ticket to one of their dinners. It's really a neat take on outdoor dining. The chef at the dinner I attended was Neal Fraser of Grace Restaurant in Los Angeles. Last year I did a bit more official documenting, this year I did more sipping wine and chatting but I did manage to snag a few good ones.

A Very Vintage Halloween Bash

UPDATE: Thanks to Abby at Style Me Pretty for featuring this event and to Kellee for the Who What Weddings coverage!
