Lindsay & Greg • Engagement Session • Savannah, GA

Lindsay and Greg share a very open and genuine love for each other which becomes apparent the moment you spend time with them. We explored Wormsloe Plantation for a true Savannah experience during their engagement session. Check out a few of my favorites below.

         

 

           

   

A few words from Greg on how they met and their life together!

"Linds and I met in high school through some mutual friends and a few of us started hanging out together all the time. That summer, we hung out nearly every day, and meanwhile I was dating a girl from another high school. Well, my interest in Lindsay and hers in me were too much to ignore, so after junior year started that fall and I wasn't seeing much of my girlfriend, I broke it off and started dating Lindsay. And the rest is history. It's been 5 1/2 years and we've had no major problems. No danger of splitting, just half a decade of pure happiness. I couldn't be luckier."

Children's Portraits • Eloise and Sophia • Savannah, GA

Eloise and Sophia are two of the cutest little girls I have ever gotten a chance to meet. We spent a lovely day together starting at Forsyth Park, then to Leopold's Ice Cream, and ending up at the Ellis Square interactive fountain! It was quite the adventure. Here are a few of my favorite photographs from their family and children's portrait session.

Foodie Friday • Arabica Lounge • Seattle, WA Photographer

As many of you may know, Seattle is known for its coffee so todays post is paying tribute to one of my favorite little coffee shops nestled in the heart of Capitol Hill. Arabica Lounge not only sells fantastic coffee from Stumptown Coffee but they always impress me with their artistic presentation.

  

Arabica serves a scrumptious variety of homemade foods and pastries. You can check out their full menu here and their "booze" menu here. A few of my favorites are the Smoked Salmon Toast, Bacon Egg & Cream Cheese Crepe, Soldier Eggs with Proscuitto, Yogurt with Granola, and the Luchador Cake although you really can't go wrong with anything on the menu. They use the freshest ingredients and offer many items that are gluten free and vegan. 

Soldier Eggs

 Bacon, Egg, Cream Cheese and Onion Crepe

  Smoked Salmon, Cream Cheese, Sun-dried Tomato & Caper Toast

 Luchador Cake (Almond and Orange) gluten free and heavenly

Meringue and Pistachio Toffee

A really nice touch to the eclectic atmosphere is the grand piano that often gets played by customers, otherwise vinyl sings through the speakers.

 

Arabica hosts many events in the evening as well. Check out what is happening now under their "events" tab here.

Foodie Friday • Cafe Presse • Seattle, WA

Cafe Presse has become a favorite place of mine in Capitol Hill to have breakfast and lunch. This french style bar/cafe makes delicious things from a Croque Madame to yogurt with honey and walnuts. You can check out there fantastic menu here. They are open from 7am-2am daily! The atmosphere is also lovely with lots of natural light pouring in from the sky lights and large windows at the front. Every time I have eaten here I have been greeted at the door within seconds of my arrival and taken care of by the nicest of servers.

Pictured first is the Croque Madame, my personal favorite thing on the menu which is a baked ham, gruyere and béchamel sandwich with a sunny side up egg on top.

   They offer full coffee service using exclusively Caffe Vita coffee.

   Eating these olives really reminded me of being in France. Quite tasty!
