Instead of totally giving up on work, I’ve been playing with fonts/text/images in Photoshop. Below is a collage I put together of my friend making her DIY wedding invitations. They arrived in the mail and looked very pretty.

Today’s photos are from an engagement session that I did in Littleton, Colorado. Tim and Kelly live in Massachusetts and just happen to be neighbors with a gal who went to college with me (I totally love those random connections between people!).
