After a two week hiatus from the “real world” I couldn’t imagine a better way to get back into the swing of reality than with a look book with my favorite boutique! But when I showed up, I was blown off my feet! These girls and these looks, ahhhhh, a combination I couldn’t have ever even imagined! It was perfect in every way and if you look below you’ll realize what I mean!

This past year has been a huge one of growth and change. Some of that stemming from life experiences I didn’t expect to have, death and the completion of college which then led to “what now?” I feel like I am still finding out every day what works for me in the real world and what 100% does not. But what I do know and have learned is that in becoming the person I want to be, I had to surround myself with those like that and with inspiration.

When Kelley got engaged there were two things on her mind. The man of her dreams and the girls she was going to choose to stand by her side as she married the man of her dreams. I remember how excited she was telling me a little about each and every one of them and how they were all so different from the next, but no matter what were always there for her. She loved how blended her friend group was and how well they worked together.

As I am sure you guys have figured out, I love shooting for brands and especially brands with really adorable clothing! So when Elena (one of my 2017 senior reps) reached out to me with this amazing opportunity to shoot some new pieces available at South Moon Under I was thrilled! We stopped by the SMU Annapolis to pick out and try on outfits and then explored and walked around downtown Annapolis finding fun places to shoot with the best light! We even made a stop by the Rising Tide Society‘s office! Days like these are so refreshing to just get out with no plan what-so-ever and see what we can create! I hope you love them!
