fruity pebbles cake in a jar

Guys, I’m so excited to show you this project because 1) it’s delish and 2) it’s so so stylin’. One thing I love doing for small gifts for people is baking cake in jars. It’s easier than you think, and you automatically have a means for transporting/gifting the cake when you’re finished. Tie off with a bow, a tag, and a spoon, and you’re done! Today I’ve created two special recipes for Post Foods, and they both involve the two…

#Brassie // The Wedding: Reception

December 4, 2015
cassie's wedding reception

And finally…the reception! (First #Brassie wedding post here, and second post here.) Guys, the reception was crazy. At one point, I set my spare lens pouch on the reception table, and the drawstring somehow touched this dinky little tealight candle that was sitting next to it. And then the whole thing lit on fire. I had just had some camera gear stolen a couple months prior and wasn’t about to lose something else (plus this was my favorite lens), so…

#Brassie // The Wedding: At the Temple

bountiful temple

Part two of Cassie and Brady’s wedding: at the temple. (For part one: getting ready, click here.) Mormon weddings are a little different in that the bride and groom are married in a temple in what is called a sealing ceremony. During the ceremony, the bride and groom essentially make a covenant with the Lord and are sealed for time and all eternity as husband and wife. The scripture “whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven”…

#Brassie // The Wedding: Getting Ready

getting ready

Alright—the photos from the LDS wedding I photographed last month are edited and looking supa sweet. This wedding was especially dear to me because it was one of my best friends who was getting married (!!!) It was kind of a crazy day because I was actually playing both bridesmaid and photographer haha. I had the photography vest on over my dress and everything. Anyway, I thought I’d share the photos with you in three consecutive posts: 1) getting ready,…

24 Hours in Salt Lake City: Fall Edition

November 22, 2015
salt lake city guide

Salt Lake City truly is a great place to be during the fall. The air is crisp, yet there are still a myriad of outdoor activities that you can enjoy, and downtown always has fun things to do as well. Salt Lake isn’t a huge city, either, so you’ll find that it’s actually very manageable—and perfect for out-of-towners. So I thought I’d put together a “24 hours in Salt Lake City” guide for all of you who might happen to find…

Iceland // The Golden Circle

November 6, 2015
golden circle iceland

For our last day in Iceland, Victoria and I decided to do the Golden Circle, which is essentially a circular route near Reykjavík that you can drive in about a day. We stopped at Þingvellir National Park (where you’ll see a cool tectonic rift), the geysers at Haukadalur (where you’ll find the geyser’s now-inactive namesake), and Gullfoss waterfall (which is super impressive). So…I have no idea what happened to my Gullfoss photos. I blame my corrupted memory card. But here is what…
