Is there anything better than an oversized chunky knit cardigan in the winter? 🤗
Well, yes, when it’s handknit by your dad! He actually made this sweater for himself, and when he didn’t want it anymore, I stole it out of his donation pile haha. Yet another reason I love having my parents living only a few blocks away!
❤️❤️❤️
It’s week 3 for @theMomEdit style challenge., and the theme is “Oversized Chic”
This outfit errs more on the side of comfy…but I’ll try and work on another post that’s a little more “chic”.
🤷🏼♀️💃
Until then…some of my new favorite pics of us playing on the beach!
I recently scored these Frye Boots for $14 at a thrift store. I could NOT believe my luck!!! I had scored Maya’s a few years ago for $20, and anxiously awaited for them to fit!
Proooooobably wasn’t the best shoe choice for playing on the beach at sunset last week, but…that’s one of my favorite things about thrifting.
Wear it, ENJOY it, play in it, have no guilt over it.
Thankfully, a wet wipe to both as soon as we got back in the car and they were all good. ☺️
GAH!!! That sunset!!!
Maya found a few crabs, but they had burrowed deep by the time I got over there.
One of my favorite things to capture with my clients is silhouettes at sunset. I love trying to make the image “them” even though you can’t see their faces.
Sadly, as it got darker I couldn’t find my remote on the rocks! SO…I had Maya push the shutter for me as I jumped and I pushed the shutter for her, and then I merged them together in Photoshop.
These totally crack me up!!
I LOVE these, but sooooo wish I’d been able to capture some of us just dancing. When I couldn’t find the remote, I just set up my phone to take this video and I LOVE IT!!! I guess I’ll just have to try again 😉
If you are following along on the weekly @theMomEdit style challenge. you can see
Week 1 “Layer A Cami Over Something Warmer”
Week 2 “All Black with a Pop of Color” (I did a day to night) day here and night here.
The next week challenge goes from 1/30-2/6 and it is…
“Make Wide Leg Crop Pants Work in Winter” .
THIS IS SO WHAT I’VE BEEN WANTING TO DO!!! So excited!
On me…
The set up for us dancing…
The set up for our jumping shot 🙂
Maya didn’t quite understand when to push the shutter. She’d hit the shutter after I jumped,
Ok, I had a few fails too 🙂
This cozy cardigan? Handknit by my dad! He made it from himself, and then it was in one of their “donation bags” that I intercepted haha. SO GLAD-love it!!
Her face!! DYING!
Ok, I’m dying NOW! At the moment…well… My remote trigger had died, so taking these was with the self timer. And, I kept running back and forth and looking down…
Oh, but then….I wore her down!!!
And these next few are some of my FAVORITES of us!!
LOOOOOVE!!
She was trying to capture bugs that were flying in the sunlight!
And lastly….singing. As she does.
This is what the majority of our outings look like haha. I try to squeeze in pics of us here and there in the break of dog walkers…
And…these Vintage Frye boots that I thrifted for $2.80!!?? Say, WHAT?!!! Honestly, I was being good and getting them for a friend of mine who is a 7 1/2. I was so excited to tell her! Then I realized that someone had put them in the women’s section by mistake, and in reality, they were a men’s 7 1/2… YAY ME!!!! Sad day for my friend though 🙂 
Might be one of my new favorite pictures of us 🙂 
Every once in a while, I time one of these just right with the self timer. Scroll down to see just one of the out takes 😉 
How gorgeous is this little park? And…I kid you not. I just yesterday had a client email me and ask if I wanted to do their family shoot here-YES!!!! 
A family coming down. Maya is the welcome wagon. 🙂 
Sometimes I worry about how friendly she is to strangers… But, I think she knows. Who is good and who is not. At least, I hope so.
Because…she loves putting on a show for them 🙂
A few landscape shots. Not my usual thing, but are you kidding me with these clouds and light??! 
A jump shot that wasn’t timed so well 😉
