Hip…Hip…HOORAY!!!! We are officially launched!! My favorite thing about running a business is well, business. I have been in business for 6 years, 5 years part time and yesterday marked the official one year full time. Woot! Woot! Yes last year I quit my stable full time corporate job and took this show on the road. Like [...]
This little face is a super sweet way to kick off a Friday. Am I right? Seriously, there is no denying that this is one adorable little boy. I absolutely adore him. Not just because he is 100% cutie-pie but because he's as sweet as he looks. Baby A is my little Bug's BFF. He is one month older, but they [...]
I can't believe my little Bug is already 7 months. It seems like last week we were having her newborn portraits taken. I guess when you are wrapped up in baby giggles, wiggles, diapers and laundry, time just slips away from you. Between you and I, I'm trying everything I can to slow things down a [...]

Good Morning Gorgeous! Let's kick off this glorious week with a DIY project, shall we? This is not only an adorable DIY idea but it's fah-reeeeee! Which makes it a favorite in my book! I can't walk by the paint sample wall in Home Depot without eyeing up all the lovely shades of swatches, secretly wishing I had [...]
OH BABY! Have we been busy here at Appletini Photography! We are giddy over all the exciting changes happening. A little delirious, with all the overtime being put in, but totally stoked! (Don't worry about us, we have about 8 tons of coffee to keep us going!) At the moment, our website is being dolled [...]
Chicken fajitas are one of my all time favorite meals! They are just so freakin' delicious. I love everything about them. Their flavor, the way their must-have toppings make my house smell of caramelized onions and peppers. All the pretty fixins you wrap them up with! (Especially the guacamole... Mmm guacamole!) The way the fajita resembles a [...]
