10 Happy Things for September (and a Happy Tiles Sale)!
/
HAPPY SEPTEMBER!
I'll be honest - I'm having a hard time letting go of summer, but I'm trying to look forward to cooler temps and back to school.
10 HAPPY THINGS
As always, this list is pretty random, but hopefully something will make you smile.
-------
1. My latest entertainment recommendations.
-------
2. Madeline Donaghue's portraits of motherhood really resonate with me.
I also love Annie Wang's series Mother as Creator.
-------
3. Hoping this comes to a park near us.
------
4. Five things to do with corn, tomatoes, or both.
Also, loving this salad.
-------
5. Lots of new families and weddings on my blog!! Please check them out!!
-------
6. Six photographers, one couple, one location, five minutes each. A great way of emphasizing that every photographer has a unique way of looking at things and a family or couple's photos will be totally different depending on who they hire to take them.
-------
7. A friend called this moment/class "pure joy" and I totally agree.
-------
8. I didn't want it to be true, but the medium really is the message. Definitely worth reading!!
-------
9. I just bought this book of 120 group portraits with only one woman - "A unique focus on women and men in public life from 1860 to the present day charting the phenomenon of 'the only woman' from countries including the USA and the UK, France, Peru, Mexico, India, China, Japan, and Australia. The book features both unknown and well-known women from a diverse range of backgrounds including writers, conductors, civil-rights leaders, domestic workers, sportswomen, and lawyers as well as princesses, railway workers, boxing promoters, and astronauts." (Is this happy? At least there's one, right?)
------
10. I loved all these wedding stories.

"The photos are incredible! . . . As first time parents there was a layer of anxiety around getting out and about with a 7-month-old hoping (and praying) he'd be in good spirits! Your ability to coax smiles out of the little guy to get all of the shots you did in 30 minutes was no small feat! We are so appreciative and look forward to working with you plenty more in the future :)" - Caitlin

"You and Christian made us, our families, wedding party, and guests feel so at ease while you captured our day, which was evident in how authentically the photos reflected our feelings throughout the day. You were truly a joy to work with throughout our planning process and we were in awe of your enthusiasm, thoughtfulness, and absolutely perfect photos. We hope to find a reason to use your talents again." - Stephanie & Sam

"My fiance and I hired Darcy for our engagement photo shoot and to photograph our wedding. We just did the engagement shoot recently, and after seeing how the photos turned out we know that we made the right choice picking her as our photographer. The photos turned out amazing and she was so friendly and flexible when it came to planning and logistics. She has an artistic eye and captured some incredible shots. We would recommend Darcy to anyone!" - Neil
