Featured on apartmenttherapy.com!

I was surprised to find this phrase in my inbox this morning.

“Thank you for sharing your lovely nursery on Apartment Therapy Family – look for it today.”

SERIOUSLY!?!?! lol

I should explain. A couple of weeks ago on a whim I decided to submit some of our nursery photos to a site I’ve been browsing for the past several years, apartmenttherapy.com. I used inspiration from their collection to create the room after all (they deserved to get credit for that) and figured that it couldn’t hurt to try.

And look, there it is!!! http://www.apartmenttherapy.com/christy-my-room-171353

I’m so humbled! I’ve never been “published” before. lol What a fun surprise!

Striking Ambur

Ambur is my co-worker and she asked me the favor of taking some photos of her to give to her Mama on Mother’s Day. Knowing how full of personality she is, I guessed that it wouldn’t be too much of a challenge to get something great together. I was right!

We headed over to the pond across the street from our office. It was a beautiful afternoon to spend with a stunning woman (inside and out).

Breathtaking

I hope your mama is happy with these Ambur! =)

Our Nursery

Since the beginning of the year, I’ve been taking a break from photography to focus on our adoption. During rare moments between the paperwork and while waiting for approval, I worked on our nursery.

A lot of what went into it was handmade. The quilt, teal knit blanket, crib skirt, chair pillow, white frames for the art, a dolly, bucket liner, stuffed turtle, the wall hanging above the crib. Instead of purchasing everything, working the one project at a time helped pass the weeks we were waiting.

Now we’re approved and the last thing to wait for is our baby!

I still have a couple of things I’m hoping to add, like a changing pad for the table and a crib mobile. And a baby. =)
