It was the perfect day for a wedding – the temperature was just right, the sky was bright blue and full of huge fluffy clouds and Steph & Derek, who we’ve come to know and love over the past few months, had started their surprisingly anxiety-less preparations for their wedding day. They were excited, happy [...]
On one of the last days the colorful fall leaves clung to their branches, we met with Allison. A recent storm had stripped many of the trees down to bare limbs leaving a red, yellow and orange carpet of color over the ground. There was a slight wind, that made the day feel like [...]
This week (Tuesday) was Chase and my second anniversary. Every year (I can say that now, since there’s more than one) we have these little mini conversations while we are doing whatever mundane thing we are doing. Were you a fly on the wall (in the car) you would have heard this as we were [...]
Stephanie grew up here in the Nashville area. She went off to college, started her career and found one heck of a guy. Now in just a few week she’ll be bringing the love of her life back to her home town to tie the knot! A couple weeks ago, Steph & Derek drove down [...]
I promised a much better post today, and let me tell you…I have one. Oh yes. Let me explain: My husband and I have been sick with some kind of virus since Tuesday. It has been incredibly crappy. But I’m also very thankful for it, because I think something really good is going to come [...]
Guys – wow. It’s been a terrible week! I’ve got some sort of virus, and have been S-I-C-K since Tuesday. Like, shivering with fever and burning up at the same time while coughing my head off and everything else sick. So that’s why you haven’t seen hide-nor-hair (or is it hare?) of me. I’m still [...]
I was tempted to try to explain how I got on this topic, so that you wouldn’t think that I’m a weirdo…but then I realize that ship has sailed! So in the spirit of good fun…on with the post! So… for the past week or so, every day when I take my shower I think [...]
Let’s be honest. You don’t think much about who you are until you have to (in actual words) describe yourself. I’m on this subject because I’ve been drafting text for the “About Us” section of the new website (I’ve mentioned this…coming soon). I’ve changed it ten-thousand times already, because I haven’t yet found two sentences [...]
So I’m a bad blogger. We knew that. Haha! As a result, I’m changing my bloggin’ commitment – Forget that old Monday-Wendesday-Friday blog you so mistakenly (kidding…sorry) thought you could expect. How does “I’ll drop you a note a couple times a week” sound? Good? Good. Now…let’s get started. A couple weeks ago (labor day, [...]
I don’t know how to start this one… Usually when I start a post I have an idea of what to say and the words just sort of unroll. Today is a little different, because it’s something I don’t really want to talk about. But I brought it up (the other day…) so I feel [...]
We first met Felix August 22nd. He wandered up when Chase and I were out in the backyard. He was a cute little guy, but did seem pretty thin. We hoped he would find his way back to his rightful owner, so we let him wander off. Here’s a terrible photo from the first night [...]
For those of you who have a betting pool going as to when we’d have the first late/missed post on this blog since I re-purposed it…time to collect! Guilt admitted, but I’m not sorry! Haha. My ExcuseI’ve been running around like a crazy person since we last talked (what’s new right?)! Chase and I are [...]
I often think to myself “I need some more downtime!” or “Things are just so busy!” Well today I have downtime, but it isn’t exactly what I’d imagined! I’m home sick with some kind of stomach bug (for those with delicate sensibilities, I’ll leave it at that.) and to be quite honest, this kind of [...]
“What can we do next?” or “What’s the next step” There are a lot of questions that I ask regularly, but these two probably more than any others. I ask out of frustration. I ask out of a maniacal need to continue moving forward. I ask because I believe in where we are going and [...]
Meet the fam…! This is my programmer-handyman-landscaper-athlete-videogamer-grillmaster-best-friend-and-sometimes-lighting-assistant husband, Chase. If it wasn’t clear from his official title, I’m crazy about him. He’s been incredibly supportive of me through the whole process of going into business and he is always willing to let me bounce new shot ideas off him, which can be more dangerous a [...]
Hello Everybody – This is Kristin (as expected). Although you have heard from me in past (business related) posts, I’m giving you first warning now…I’m hijacking this blog for my own purposes! Arrr! Seriously though, it’s been way too difficult to keep everything on this blog business related – partly because not all business is [...]
Hey Guys! Just want to send out a quick congrats to my brother-in-law, Ben and my new sister-in-law, Julie! I wish you both the best in your new marriage Here are a couple of pictures from their big day at the Presbyterian Church in Bellevue! Until next time! Kristin @ Surreal Image Studios
Hey Guys! Looks like I’ve got some catching up to do on the blog here! If you want the quick re-cap in photo format, check out our Facebook page. We’ve been pretty busy the past few weeks with weddings, engagement sessions, bridal sessions and now we are in the process of getting ready for our [...]
