Forgive me for the absence; I have been on vacation! Woo Hoo!

Before vacation, I tried to get everything and anything done so that after vacation I wouldn’t have anything to do. A clean slate, so to speak. It was a good idea in theory.

The problem with that?

The hours in the day weren’t long enough and I still had work to finish. Therefore, before we left last week, I resigned myself to the fact that I would have to work on vacation.

The problem with that?

Our condo had WiFi, but my computer wouldn’t hook up to it. So, I had to just let it go.

I was glad the WiFi didn’t work right because otherwise I would have been working the entire time. And that’s not a vacation, is it?

I really needed time to just be and I’m so thankful that it worked out the way it did.

In the rush of life, sometimes we all just need a moment, or two, to just be.

Oh boy, have I got something adorable and fun for your Monday! In June, I strayed a little bit from my normal wedding photography mode to photograph something special: my best friend Tiffany’s chickens!

Yes, CHICKENS!

You see, my best friend Tiffany is amazing. Really amazing! And sweet and nice and totally in love with animals. When she texted me that she and her husband Michael purchased baby chickens to raise, I immediately wanted to photograph them. And she was okay with that! See, she is amazing. :)

So when I arrived at her house I was greeted by her dogs Briley & Starr.

Meet Briley Ann. Yep, she’s named after me! :)

LOVE that moose on Tiffany’s wall and this tree:  Chickens!!! One of my favorites:
This little fellow was workin’ it:  Another favorite:  And yes, I got to hold a chicken or two that day. And it didn’t go so well. However, no human or chicken was hurt in the making of this photo session. ;) “I ain’t got time for your cowboy boots, ladies.”  Twin chickens in a basket!? LOVE:  The most precious little baby chickens:  So I like this image and all, but the more I look at it, the more it kind of looks like a two-headed chicken… don’t you think?  This little guy was way more interested in the cowboy boots than the other chicken:  Little chicken feet!  That red chair was the best prop ever! I plan on using it again for our next shoot… oh yes, you know Tiffany & I are already planning another one. ;) They have already grown a mile, Tiffany said. Ahh, kids these days… I mean chickens… yeah, chickens these days. They just grow up so fast!  And this? Well, this clearly isn’t a chicken! This is Heavenly Starr: And this is Super Hero Heavenly Starr in her bikini and four-wheeler-riding-goggles. Yes, four-wheeler-riding-goggles:  And this? This just made your day, didn’t it ?!  

:)

See even more chicken fun on the slideshow.

Happiest of Mondays,
Bethany

  • How gorgeous are these!

Yesterday, I locked my car door while sitting at the ATM… as my arm rested on the lock.

And can you guess what happened next? The lock snapped down and pinched me! I literally jumped because I was so surprised.

And can you guess what happened next? My arm bruised up and I took iPhone photos of it, of course.

Then? Then I proceeded to send a photo to my mom, sister, best friend, and husband, of course. And I Instagrammed it… Of course.

I am not going to submit you to my bruise photo on here, though.

When my sister texted me back and said “Nice one. I’d be proud,” I told her I was “so proud.” We have a weird sense of humor, I know. :)

Anyway!!! Who else is excited it’s FRIDAY!?! Woo Hoo!!!

  • […] by WP Greet Box WordPress PluginI have a fun engagement session to share with you today! Ruth is Danielle’s sister, and when she and Micah asked me to photograph their wedding next spring, I was elated. […]

  • […] one time, I kept a ton of toilet paper rolls so I could make a craft with my friend Dani… Well, that didn’t happen, and I threw them away, but yeah, this reminded me of that […]
