Friday, July 29

  • my first experience as a second photographer for a wedding
  • gaining confidence as the day went on
  • small details that made the day special - stunning blue shoes, flowers in each up-do, the couple surprising all of their guests with a choreographed first dance
  • an adventurous bride and groom who braved the rain and humidity for some adorable portraits
  • car rides providing time for relaxation and conversation with an amazing photographer and friend
  • staying for dessert - options were endless!

Saturday, July 30

  • trip with cousins to Atlantic City (my first time!)
  • sunshine that made for a great beach day
  • warmer ocean temperatures, laughing as we all were splashed by the waves

  • cold frozen drinks, for free!
  • sun screen assembly line


  • a stroll on the boardwalk before dinner
  • pink and orange hues blazing out behind the clouds (unable to get a good picture though!)



  • rows upon rows of slot machines
  • winning big money! (just kidding - budget was $5, so gambling lasted all of 2 minutes!)



  • reservation at a fancy Italian restaurant, getting dressed for the occasion
  • absolutely no portion control! so much food, including a melt in your mouth chocolate torte
  • dancing the night away!
  • collapsing into our hotel beds after a fun day



great times with great girls! so glad our family has expanded!

Sunday, July 31


  • morning walk on the beach with my camera
  • no traffic on our way home
  • spending the afternoon at Green Pond and sharing our Atlantic City stories
  • taking a swim on the surf board with a cousin I do not get to see often enough, joined by a certain puppy who couldn't resist being in the water when we were!
  • catching up on others' blogs
  • going to bed early after two late nights
