Our recent work post will be photos that we’ve been working on or it could include other work we’re working on too (you know for those non busy months) ha!

As if I didn’t already have enough on my plate I decided in the middle of the busiest season for us (fall family portraits) and in the middle of being a stay at home mom (which is a JOB if you didn’t know) I needed to have a office remodel……geeez……my brain what does it think sometimes?   Oh well I’ve got support from my hubby finally!  I say that bc I always start projects and they usually never get finished….but now he’s starting to see a change (probably since I decided I would tackle one room at a time from start to finish!) and even said the other night….”this room is next” —–> referring to our bedroom, which looks awful with a few pictures hanging on the wall randomly, our bed only on a frame with a makeshift headboard, two very mismatched side tables, and a project of mine gone bad when my hubby decided to take matters into his own hands…..a dresser I was painting white and ran out of spray paint……he mustered that I wasted money on the project and that I had plenty of spray paint left over in storage and I should just use that…..of course I didn’t want different colors…….so he took a can of BLACK and went to town on the drawers……so we ended up with a black and white dresser……it will find a new home soon I promise, but for now I’m not working on that room.  :)

This is my friend Erica!  :)  and of course her hubby too!  They moved here from Utah a few years ago.  I was super excited to meet her when we finally met up last year.  She’s an amazing photographer (she did Titan’s newborn pictures!) so if you want some newborn pictures she’s the one to go to!!!  She’s so talented and super patient even with my screaming baby and my hubby that was totally ready to go after 30 minutes!  But you can’t even tell that in her images!!!  She’s great she really is!  Check her out…..http://ericakirbyphotography.com/

And you should recognize Chelsea and Stew they’ve been all over our blog!  They just got married May 1st so give it up to them!  Congrats!  These are their babies right now…..Philly and Hubert.  I just love Hubert’s ears!!!  They actually did a great job during the shoot!  It’s always hard to get them to look directly at the camera though!

I’ve been working on some senior sessions two!  Meet Craig.  He’s a Springdale Bulldog.  I did his sister’s senior portraits a few years ago so they came back for round two!  He’s going to be attending U of A next fall!  Way to go Craig for picking the best college in Arkansas to go to!!!  …….U of A Alumni speaking…….  ;)

Then my brother in law Andy wanted some additional pictures of him in his football jersey to end the season off just right!  Oh of course his girlfriend Ally had to join in for the fun too!  Sorry you two but I can’t NOT share this next one!!!

(LOVE IT!!!!  HA ha HA ha HA ha  I’m rolling off my seat!!!)

Then of course my house is a disaster…..

Let’s just take a look……two chairs that are projects……parent’s choice boxes full of Christmas Party projects……boxes of things for my office project……red rug on the kitchen table…you guessed it another project…..and then of course a drop zone for Titan’s stuff……oh goodie!  I can’t wait to finish up all these projects so I can have my house back!!!

And Titan’s room……let’s see….. all the stuff that was in the office got dumped into his room….poor little guy.  It’s a good thing he’s still sleeping in our room or this would not be acceptable!

Ok so here’s a few before shots (excuse the crappy iPhone shots please).

We plan on taking those shelves down, just wanted to try to get a lot of the painting done first.

Now some during shots……

I almost forgot a few other things in the recent work file!!!!!

Our family portraits!

Along with Katie and Jake’s wedding!!!  They were married Nov 6th in the St. Louis Temple!

Whew…..that’s all for now.

Lot’s on our plate over here!

Enjoy!
