day 74/365.

i love love love the custom dvd cases. i love designing them, i love receiving them in the mail, i love repeatedly opening and closing them and saying, “YES THESE ARE SO AWESOME.” then finally, i bid them a fond farewell and send them lovingly off to my clients, but not without crying a little bit.

took awesome bridal portraits at the NCSU alumni hall today! the only thing disappointing about taking bridal portraits is that you can’t post them until after the wedding. :) but here’s a sneak peak – random test shot before the bride got to the top of the steps.

heather and jason were married in duke gardens in early april and were such a cool couple to work with. heather and i hit it off so well at our consult that we were there for a couple hours  before our significant others called to ask where we were, so i knew their wedding would be a blast! they were such a great couple and had so many awesome family members and friends. everyone had a super great time and the whole day went off without a hitch. what a beautiful day and gorgeous couple. congratulations!!

this salon is so awesome. it’s wavelengths in durham, and has one of the most super awesome interiors of any salon i’ve been to, as well as incredibly natural light. also, i wanted to take those couches home with me.
