Once upon a time there was a girl who was really bad about blogging all of her sessions… oh wait… there’s no “once upon a time” about it… I still suck at blogging all of my sessions! So in hopes to get caught up, and to show off how insanely gorgeous my clients are… I’m enacting a Throw Back Thursday blog series. Original? Probably not, but whatevs… hopefully it’ll be something that will, in the least, get a blog out once a week!
So, for today’s TBT post, I’m opening the vault from last November to show you Yhaira and Jared’s engagement session because I will also be sharing their wedding with you very very shortly, as well!!!
Yhaira and Jared and I met so so so long ago. We shared an appy and some cocktails over what turned out to be the most awesome conversation! We clicked instantly, and being able to spend the last year and half with them has been nothing short of amazing!! I recently shot Yhaira & Jared’s wedding at Legends Ranch, and Jared’s sister toasted to her brother… “Jared, even though Yhaira is a little bit vertically challenged, please know that you definitely married up!” While we all knew that this was just a friendly roasting between brother and sister… I couldn’t help but to chuckle at what a great job she did poking fun at the height difference between these two lovebirds. During this engagement session we were constantly finding rocks and other items for Yhaira to stand on, and I loooove how sweet it made their engagement images.
Yhaira & Jared are avid outdoorsies. And avid donut eaters. So why not mesh their two worlds to create a jeep and donuts themed engagement session??!!
Yhaira and Jared’s donut/poison of choice… Pink Box Donuts. I honestly didn’t believe them when they said how mind blowingly good they were. I was like… how good could a donut be? SweetBabyGeez… I was wrong. Go try these donuts. Like, now.
I’ll end with this favorite image of the day… which included some acrobatic prowess by yours truly to get the angle!! xo.
Nice try at the uber-sensative subject, nice post. I think a huge part of all this crnieazss is folks that do not accept, fully, the reality of their situation. Obviously, by reading the comments, some folks feel they ARE THE VOICE for their diagnosis and that itself seems problematic.Perhaps disability is just to loose of a term as it seems like those whom feel “less disabled” do not want to become familiar with all the challenges and joys they share with the rest of the community, seen by them as more broken, or differenlty broken. I feel if any community should be able to look past differences, offer a helping hand to less abled humans for a movement much larger than themselves, it’s this one. Unfortunately it seems more hostile than the 2012 republican nominees debating. Ugly, disappointing, self-loathingly American. I’ll be at your conference with a wicked sense of humor, no self-pity, listening ears and expectations of real talk with no whining. An agenda for a social movement that HELPS ALL folks caring for and living with disabilities…maybe you can all drop your “poor me” for that? We are NOT victims and should find some gawd damn manners. I think the old adage if you don’t like something fix it, if you can’t fix it, fix the way you think about it is fitting. Kudos to you in your quest to come together and change things like government support programs, stigmas, education reform, communication, etc. It is noble although seemingly unappreciated.
