The week of Trash the Dress

A couple weeks ago I had two trash the dress sessions. The first one was with Kelly who you may recognize from an earlier Family session post with her son Zach. The second which took place the following day was with Jennifer. She is a fellow photographer who just wanted to have fun and do something different. I had a great time with both former brides and I love the photos that resulted from the sessions.

My new assistant, Bre, accompanied me on her first session which happened to be Kelly's. Stay tuned for some of Bre's images.

My New Favorite Songs

Do you remember the pop music singer Michelle Branch? She became popular about 10 years ago with her first single "Everywhere" and her popularity increased with several successful singles and a few albums.

She then joined forces with Jessica Harp to start the group The Wreckers.

Since then, they have started solo projects and they each have their own new songs which I am currently addicted to and play over and over again in the car, they are:

Boy Like Me - Jessica Harp

and

Sooner or Later - Michelle Branch

Check them out!
