Oh my goodness! If you had told me a few years ago that I would have caught the travel bug this badly… I’m not sure that I would have believed you! I was never the adventurous type growing up, actually quite the opposite… but something in the last few months has changed in me! I’ve been dreaming of far away lands and adventures! Chasing down those dreams with a rapid intensity!Â
For the last ten days, I have been exploring London + the Amalfi Coast + Rome with Huey for our (very belated) honeymoon! This was my first time EVER crossing the Atlantic and it was truly the best trip I’ve taken in my entire life! I left my laptop at home (shocking, I know!) and truly enjoyed spending this time with my husband. After working almost every weekend straight during September and October, it was nice to truly spend quality time together!
I’m planning to share more from our adventure in the coming days – but for now, I wanted to post a little Instagram wrap-up! All of the images below were taken on my iPhone! Yay for mobile technology, right?!
And as if the month of November couldn’t get any better! I’m spending the entire day teaching at The Bayside Workshop and getting to know twenty truly incredible women! Ah! I wish the weather was better, but we’re going to have such an extraordinary day learning + photographing the goodies that Kruse & Vieira Events have styled for us! I have been giddy all weekend anticipating this moment… Getting to bond with other photographers and build this community has been one of the greatest gifts I’ve been given all year. When you pour your heart into someone and watch them succeed… oh friends… it’s the best feeling in the entire world! I seriously cannot believe that we are hosting our second workshop and already have some behind the scenes details about a possible third! (I seriously can’t believe I’m even saying that… Ah!) This year has been such a beautifully wild ride!
Once the workshop is over, this week is filled with meetings, coffee-dates, and ends with an epic road trip to Charleston, South Carolina with Maddie and Kate to photograph in my favorite Southern City! YES! It’s going to be an amazing weekend, indeed! More travel with people I adore and continuing to build this business along the way!
I know that I always say October is my favorite month, but November is truly taking the spotlight this year!
