Busiest Weekend EVER.

 (sorry for the crappy quality pic. I stole it from someone on Facebook since I forgot my camera. you get the gist. )


This weekend was full.to.the.brim. It was fun! On Friday I had a wedding in Iowa City. Its always fun to get back to my old stomping ground and a place where my black and gold can bleed all over:) I even wore black and gold to the wedding! I am kind of die hard:) I got to bum around the mall killing some time and then checked into an AMAZING hotel in cedar rapids that was booked by a bride and groom that needed to get some photos done. Let me tell you that I have not slept that good maybe ever. It was called the Kirkwood. Its new, its super modern-decorated in red, grays and blacks/white. Stunning.  The beds were the most comfortable thing ever. I dont like traveling alone. But this weekend was nice. The bride and I got drinks and dinner (not the wedding bride- the other bride). The next day I was able to sleep in and then headed to UNI/Cedar Falls to shoot the Friday wedding's reception. They were super cute- but super unorganized so there was a lot of down time. AND I had the worst shadow people ever. For the non photographers reading this....shadow people are the annoying family members who follow the photographer and stand next to them and get the SAME SHOT in every freaking photo....their flash sets mine off and then I have to retake my photos. I was getting so mad I just kept staring at them. There were 3 of them. and they took every.single. photo I took. It was insane. Late night home on Saturday (about 11) and then church, naps, Vacation Bible School for Vaughnie and an engagement shoot for me. It was a hot sunday but a good one. Vaughnie loved VBS. She loves knowing that she gets to hang out with kiddos her age. She was nervous to be dropped off but paid no attention when I left and was super excited when I picked her up. She is supposed to have dance tonight but I asked if she wanted VBS or dance and she chose VBS. Cute.  We have a busy week ahead and that will be nice. To be honest, I have enjoyed this summer but am ready for football weather.
