Eeep. This post should have been up early this morning, but this mama woke up late with a nice big lump in her throat, unable to swallow (pretty sure it was maybe, possibly due to a dairy allergy. I may have had a bite of cheese :/ I’ve stayed vegan otherwise, but oops, lesson learned.) I’m feeling much better now and watching Marlowe jump up and down, while saying her new favorite word “elmooo” 😉
Anyway….
Last night, I met up with one of the sweetest ladies I’ve been introduced to thanks to the internet, Jessica. I’ve met her a million times, but never had the pleasure of sitting down with her or sweet friend, Kate. I was instantly bombarded by endless amounts of kindness. I can’t believe none of us took photos. I think I was too overwhelmed 🙂 We spent about three hours chatting and eating at The Coolinary Cafe, it was a-maz-inggg.
You can see her amazing photography on her site: Jessica Lorren Organic Photography. It’s the perfect site to add to your reader if you’re into looking at amazing photos filled with natural light, perfect little details, and love.
I actually found Jessica through one of my past (and future) sponsors: Johanna (her etsy). Shortly after being engaged, I posted about being clueless about planning a wedding. Johanna emailed me and mentioned Jessica, as a local wedding photographer (she travels too, I’m just lucky to have her local to me ;). I checked out her site (while looking at sooo many others) and instantly fell in love. A few days later, I received the sweetest email from Paige and we ended up choosing her (and her husband) for our wedding photographers. Of course, the wedding never happened, but you know, that happens. A few months later, I was ringing up the sweetest customer at the truck, I glanced down at the name on the receipt, and realized it was Jessica! I introduced myself and bam: That’s that, now I know another amazing and extremely talented lady.
