Monday morning was a little bit sweeter for me this week after seeing Shannon + Michael’s wedding featured on Style Me Pretty. What an honor!
I hope future brides find inspiration from this wedding. The DIY details and personal touches by the couple made this wedding so special!

In my many travels through the world wild web, I somehow stumbled on the Marc and Angel Hack Life blog where they share inspirational/motivational tips for life. There are a million blogs out there like this but this one really struck me. Their positivity wasn’t just Pollyanna “put on a happy face” superficial advice. It was deeper than that. It had more of a practical way about it that I identify with. So much, that after I would read it, the solution to dealing with life’s ups and downs and chasing down a dream seemed so… obvious. Their blog posts can be somewhat lengthy and I don’t always (never) have time to read them but what I REALLY like is their twitter feed. I’m on twitter by the way, in case you want to follow me! @jenny_mccann Since twitter restricts you to 140 characters, I can just pop on their twitter whenever I need a quick pick-me-up and read nuggets of wisdom like this:
“Just because something isn’t happening for you now doesn’t mean it never will be.”
“If you really want to do something, you’ll find a way. If you don’t, you’ll find an excuse. “
“It’s better to have a life full of mistakes that you learned from, rather than a heart full of regrets.”
Check them out! Their blog is definitely worth reading, too!
And here is my boy on his birthday blowing out his 7 flaming candles! Shot on Ilford Delta 3200. Ridiculously perfect grain. <3 I tinted this by the way…whadaya think?
Somehow i stumbled on your site and have been loving your film friday series. I picked my film camera back up and have been playing with film again with mixed results but you totally inspired me to really just do it and shoot more film. Especailly color film.
Just wanted to let you know how wonderful and evocative your work is.

I already shared this on Facebook, but it’s worth sharing again larger on the blog! Look at the yummy details in this bouquet from Shannon + Michael’s wedding. Gah!! Does anybody else have the urge to eat them? Or is it just me? mmmm….filmy flowers. lol

That moment when you see your film scans for the first time and realize that, despite having a manual focus lens and despite having a I-stand-still-for-no-one subject, the best photo on the roll is tack sharp and one smug thought comes to mind; Naaaiiiled it.
and a few more off this roll. Doesn’t the bottom left look like she’s standing on the ground? optical illusion, cool!
