Well, I seem to be better at these on a Tuesday, it’s a stange thing, so, they will be coming on Tuesdays’, because why not??!!

I am inspired by EVERYTHING.  seriously.

My kids, my friends, things I see…but most times it’s simple things that set me off creating (or a text with a picture from Tammy, lol).  When you have a creative mind it can almost be a bad thing…..I can’t stop.  I want to change things constantly…..paint colors, fabrics, decor….., most of all my mind, it’s baaaad.  My poor husband.  Poor Tammy.  But it does have it’s blessings too.  I feel like I can make the most out of almost anything…..give me a job and I can nail it (or at least I think I’ve nailed it, lol).  I’m the kind of perfectionist, who can spend a whole day in my pajamas’, shhh don’t tell.  Or as Tammy would say, I would just wear a pretty lace scarf with my pajamas’ to the grocery store….lol, and lip gloss.  I can’t help it, it’s the country girl in me, that and I have 3 kids which leaves me with no energy sometimes to care about what I wear, as long as my kids look good

I get a lot of questions about Emmi’s clothing…..and honestly, most comes from a mix of GAP & Joe (Fresh).

 This for example:  Rose leggings from GAP and the denim shirt dress is from Joe (Fresh)

I try to take pieces that I can mix and match, ones that have no characters or anything like that….clothes I would wear or ones I could if I looked cute in a romper (lol).

 

Photography l.o.v.e

So have I ever confessed my true loves of wedding photography…..if not, here they are (in no particular order)

1. Jasmine Star.  I LOVE her.

2. Brooke & Michele from White Linen.  I also LOVE them.

I love both of these photographers’ work.

Of course Jamine Star is the inspiration I will probably never meet, but her blog is one of the only ones I read on a regular basis.  I just like her.  She is funny…and real.

B&M.  We have also never met….BUT, I think they are amazing!  I think of any photographers’ work I love, it’s always theirs.  It’s so soft, crisp and clean….with a romantic touch.  Wedding season fills me with excitement for not only my own weddings, but theirs.  I think I sometimes imagine myself with them, lol……me and Tammy.  It’s funny, but I can remember ‘meeting’ Michele thru a Facebook group for kiddie pictures…..I LOVED her then, almost 5 years ago (when we both first started taking photos, I think).  And then came Brooke…..and I feel in love, lol.  They don’t know I am writing this all about them, so when they find out I hope they don’t think I’m crazy, or a stalker or anything……just someone who l.o.v.e.s what they create.

3.  Tammy, oh Tammy.  What would I do without her.  Honestly, sometimes you meet people in your life by chance who become part of you, like you don’t know what it was like before them.  She is one of those people.  She is my opposite in many ways, but we are so in sync when it counts.  So thank you, now, and always, for being the EXACT person I needed in my life.  And yes, you are going to put more hilights in my hair….thanks.

Life l.o.v.e

Chevron table….pretty cool hey.  I am totally going to make one, with a vintage-jackie twist.  Can’t wait to get a chance to do it…..stay tunned.

 

 

So here it is….a big post!

i hope you enjoy.

So we are starting something new.

I LOVE to design.  I LOVE to create.  And together with Tammy, who also loves those things, we come up with all sorts of ideas.  For the home.  For daily life.  And most of all…..for WEDDINGS!

We LOVE weddings.  If we would, we would have a wedding design company, or better yet, weddings and home decor.  Someday we plan to open a studio and shop….full of all the goodies we love to create, but for now, it’s coming in blog form

So since it’s not Friday, but I can’t wait to do a post here is the first.  I hope they get better with time, and when I have an actual office so I can concentrate where the kids are not flying around (but I do love them so).

Lets’ start here.

Inspire Me Pretty.  thank you.  for being amazing.

Here is in my mind, the PERFECT nautical wedding.  Just enough, not over the top.   Weddings are about you.  And every little detail that you can put into it, makes it more and more about you.  And it doesn’t have to cost a lot of money.  There are so many things you can do yourself…..places you can cut costs!

 

Here is another link to the great wedding above.  Just perfect.But don’t forget you can’t get these great images without a great photographer.

Our area is FILLED with amazing talent.  Be sure to pick the one that is right for your day…..your style.

 

Love this little detail <3

 

GREAT gift for your bridesmaids and groomsmen!!!  You can find them here.

 

Well.  There it is.  A bit of inspiration.

Happy creating.
