That's NOT Possible For Me!

As I showed her how to view her photos on the back of my camera she began scrolling to see what the eye of her photographer captured of them. I saw her smile and left her to view the images with her hubby, Erik.

"Surely she'll like 2 or 3 out of all those!" I said as I stood in front of MyRick.
"I don't know why you did all that."
"All what?" I said in a bit of a nasty tone. (yes I did.)
"You took about 4,000 pictures." (really only about two hundred and something)
"Well, I knew I didn't have that much time before the sun went down Mr. Snappy Pants." (I didn't really say Mr. Snappy Pants. But that's what I was thinking.
"Well, they only wanted ONE or TWO snapshots of them."
"WHAT?"

Ashley was supposed to photograph us for our Christmas cards. But, I went to Katelyn's baby shower and didn't make it back in time to do so. My littlest's hair was soaking wet, the sun was racing it's way to the other side of the world and I didn't have time to get us all changed or fix our hair! No big deal I thought. We'll just do it next week.

Enter the comment: "They just wanted ONE or TWO snapshots of them."
"Ashely thought that after she got done shooting us, you'd just take like one or two of her and Erik." I'm like, "ONE or TWO of them?" That's not possible for me! I can't do that! I just sank and then started laughing. I turned to Erik and Ashely and said, "Oh my goodness! I didn't know you wanted only ONE or TWO shots!" They just started busting out laughing. hahahahahahahahaaaaaaaaa!
Oh well. When we got home and began going through her photos on the computer, that 5 or 6 that she said she liked at the restaurant turned into 52!!! I can't blame her. They are beautiful! They were a blast to work with. And she LOVES her ahem, ONE or TWO photos! I can't wait to get one of your Christmas cards Ashley!



We shot in between a warehouse and a quaint little Italian restaurant.



This reminds me of Nicole Kidman's most recent shoot in Vogue.



I adore Ashely's expression here.


Oh pu-lease! LOVE it!



Simple and yet striking at the same time.



Some of her friends' favorite!


That reflection in the window is heavenly. Wonder why they're laughing? I almost got run over by a car! I must not be sooooo focused next time!

Some old Hollywood glamour. Woo-woo!
