Photoshoot

For my birthday this year I asked Paul to  formal photos with me at Monmouth University (where we did our wedding pictures).  We met with our photographer, the talented Inku Yo whose webpage can been seen here today and took some pictures.  Paul and I learned that modeling is hard work and we both are terrible at taking direction but Inku was very patient and understanding and full of ideas which made the day quite fun.  He recently posted these onto Facebook so I thought I would share them here as well.  I plan on printing a few of these for our walls. 

Paul's favorite.  He loves the clean lines the modern feel



His second favorite

 

My favorite.  We spun around a lot but this just seems like pure joy





My second favorite.  It really looks like an intimate moment between us




I wanted to try to recreate our favorite picture from our wedding in front of the same windows




I love how Inku changes the texture of the pictures so they look more vintage and old




I was suppose to be pulling Paul's tie to me to kiss but we ended up messing it up somehow so we were laughing at ourselves and Inku snapped and a brillance was born



Love the color and texture and the fading background



Glee!

Bridal Shower

This Sunday I hosted my SIL's bridal shower at my mother's house.  I took a page out of PetitieMandoo's book and decided to handicraft some items.  Naturally since I was hosting the event I never took any pictures until the shower was almost over but here are a few things I did.

I made 4 centerpieces using paper flowers.  I didnt get pictures of all of them but here is one as well as a few closeups of some of the flowers













I also made triple-chocolate biscotti favors which I bagged in cellephane bags and put lables on.  I wanted to put the recipe with the biscotti and came up with the idea of folding the recipe into cranes.

Here is the basket of cranes



And an individual one.  The lable says 'I had a sweet time at Kim's shower 8-30-09"



And lastly I decorated the tent with these paper puffs and balloons.




I also made pasta salad, a cheese and cracker platter, and biscuits a la Red Lobster. 

This took quite a lot of time and effort and that will be another entry but overall I think the shower went well and I am so so so thankful the weather held out.
