My very-talented photographer-friend Lauren and I realized we needed pictures of ourselves on our websites.  We shuttered at the prospect of being in FRONT of the camera for once and put it off until we worked up the courage! We did this back in September and are just getting around to posting (just in time for the new year!) We critiqued every photo of ourselves and laughed quite a bit while downloading and editing together…so here we are…in all our glory…

We started at a wonderful salon called Verde in Collingswood to see Jenna who rocked out our hair.  HUGE thank you to Verde and Jenna for putting up with us so early in the morning!

Then, with Dunkin’ in hands, we were off to hurdle our awkwardness of being in front of the camera!   These are some of my favorite shot’s of Lauren…

As always, we had a great time together!  Being in front of the camera for a change was a little eye opening and I am hoping everyday to remember loving just the way god made me   ♥  instead of critiquing every flaw!

And now…FINALLY…you can see who I am on my “about me” page above! If you’d like to see more of what Lauren captured, head on over to her blog @
