Friday Favorites

FRIDAYFAVES

I’ve had to hold off on the Friday Favorites . . . hoping to feature my first vendor next week . . . but until then, here’s my favorite shot from a corporate event I shot this week and the STUNNING Vibiana in downtown Los Angeles! First off, can I just say how much I love DOWNTOWN LA!!!  I really have a thing for it!  Kinda my favorite place to shoot and get inspired!!!!  Second, I love when a friend/vendor asks to have lil’ ol me come and shoot their work!! It really is an immense honor!!!  Jackie with Lotus and Lily Floral Design asked just that . . . so much fun!!!  Without further adieu . . . here’s my favorite . . . well, favorite THREE, from the day!

A time to highlight some of my favorites . . . whether it be a vendor or just something cool I’m dying to share!!!
Stay tuned to next friday for the first official installment of

FRIDAY FAVORITES!!!

Until then, here’s a little something that I just have to tell EVERYONE
about and it has NOTHING to do with photography or weddings or families . . .
but a girls gotta eat! Right?!

Three little words . . .
SWEET. KALE. SALAD!!!

KALE SALAD

Seriously, this salad is AHHHHH MAZING!!!!!

I find it at Costco and Smart & Final (about $4.49/bag)!
It has EVERYTHING you need . . . the greens, dressing, dried cranberries, and pumpkin seeds!!!
I like to add some rotisserie chicken ($4.99 at costco). 
I can get about 3-4 lunches out of this bag if I eat it by myself!
