Good morning! I hope you are staying warm in these freezing temps! In the studio, our team had a good start to January. We had our first 2015 team meeting where we discussed defining a vision, the blog, and our 2015 calendar. We are ready to jump into this year! We also celebrated and said goodbye to our loved 2014 interns. Laken and Jordan have been incredible. Working hard, bring lots of great laughter and good humor, and working their way into our hearts; they have become such a valued part of the team. It is hard to see them go! They both have exciting things planned with traveling across the world and launching a new business. They both will do so well at all they are jumping into this year. We made them promise to come see us again! This week we also had two shoots in 20 degree weather!! Yikes. Thankfully our subjects were troopers and not afraid of the cold! On a personal level, today is my baby girl’s first birthday. Sailor turns one! A rainbow birthday cake and a pink baby doll are happening later today. Her big brothers are pretty excited to celebrate their sister.

We have a few seats remaining at the Photography 101 workshop. Simple techniques that will rock your photography world! For more details and to sign up, go here.

Wednesday’s photo shoot took place here! Look frigid and cold? You are right, it was.

On Tuesday, sweet potato fries helped ease the sadness of saying goodbye to Laken and Jordan…kinda.

Here’s our CHAR co journal….enjoy a few of our current loves.
