my birthday weekend / Alison Conklin's GENIUS photography!




















This was the best birthday weekend EVER! It started Friday with Carolyn and Josh treating me to White Orchids (thai food) for dinner and then they came over and we watched Paris, Je T'Aime. Saturday I had to work all day but it wasn't too bad. After work I came home and lounged in my new living room with my husband and then hung my new ISO50 posters that had just arrived in the mail. And then Sunday morning my friend Alison came over and she photographed me and Ryan and Tegan in our home as a birthday gift to me. Alison is amazing! She is SO gifted! Alison's blog, check it out daily to see her latest amazing photoshoot! I am always surprised and delighted by her emotional, vibrant photography. She's magic when it comes to photography. I think she came out of the womb with a camera in her hand. Ever since I've known her back in 1997 when she was using a basic film camera she blew me away with her creative eye and beautiful black and white photos. She's got IT!!!! Ali, if you moved to California, you'd be shooting the stars...for sure!!!!!

This pictures mean so much to me, ALi, SO MUCH! Thank you! xo
