Tuesday, January 3, 2012 at 5:59PM Happy New Year! What better way to start off 2012 than with a rockin' engagement session! Kristen and Branden were so sweet, and it was an honor to take their photos. What a great start to the year!
Friday, December 30, 2011 at 10:50PM Just a quick post about how much I love Instagram. I can't carry my big camera around in my pocket all the time. Usually when something photo-worthy happens, its over by the time I get ahold of it. And then there's the importing. And editing. And posting. Just a lot of steps for the occasional, facebook-worthy candid. Enter Instagram. Its a smart phone app that makes my iPhone even more amazingly wonderful. Just take the photo, add a fun effect to make it pretty, maybe add a caption, and post. Its super simple, and super fun. Plus, you can post to Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, and a few others all with one click if you'd like. You follow your friends and get to see what they're up to. Its way too addictive. Here are some cute shots I've taken with Instagram over the last couple of weeks. If you want to follow me, my id is erindezago. :)

Sawyer William was born 2 weeks earlier than expected on November 1st at 12am exactly, after 18 hours of Halloween labor. :) He weighed 7lbs 12oz and was 19.75 inches. We love every ounce of him. He and big brother Greyson are keeping us busy to say the least, but I finally am starting to feel more "put together." Here are some yummy baby photos to make you smile.
And some from Christmas this week. Its amazing to see how much he's changed already.
Hope you had a wonderful Christmas and are enjoying a week of relaxation and family time!
Monday, October 24, 2011 at 12:42PM I'm so excited about this post! I have a brand new Etsy shop that I am so pumped to share with you! Technically, its been open for about 6 weeks now, but its doing really well, and I want to make sure all my loyal blog readers know about it!
In case you don't know what Etsy is, I'll do a quick explanation. Etsy is an online venue for sellers to set up shops to sell their homemade and/or vintage items. There are litterally hundreds of thousands of Etsy shops, and sellers offer anything you could imagine from crocheted beanies to solid wood toy chests, wall art out of trash to 1950's mixing bowls. Really, you can find anything.
In my shop, I am selling custom-designed invitations, announcements, and greeting cards in digital format. I stick with fun, fresh colors and simple, modern design. Providing the file in digital format saves me so much cost, time, and effort. So, that savings gets passed along to the buyers! If you find a listing you like, you purchase that listing from Etsy, and send me a message with all the necessary info for me to create your custom card. Then, I add your info, and send you a low-res proof. Once you approve the proof, I send a high-res jpg image that can be printed at any lab of your choice, or on your home printer. Its that simple!
I am having so much fun with this shop, and I'm averaging about one sale per day, which is keeping me busy! Here is a peek at what is selling the best and the products I love the most.
And here is a sneak peek of my holiday collection, that's not even up on the shop yet! Can't wait to get these up, along with all the others!

This girl is so stinkin' adorable and so expressive! I just loved getting my lens on her! Stay tuned, because this week I have a session with the entire cute family! Can't wait!
