Random Thoughts Pieced Together

Hi! Can you even believe it's October?! It makes me beyond happy that my favorite month is here!
The weather was so lovely last week. It was around 50 degrees out! But for some awful reason it's been in the 80s all this week, (ugh, Indiana weather!) though today it feels amazing out! Despite the hotness and humidity, I've been wearing jeans and sweaters all week. I guess it's my way of retaliating against summer who has been impolitely overstaying its welcome.
.
My birthday is at the end of this month. I will be...seventeen. It's a frighting age I think. I didn't feel like turning sixteen was a big deal when I was fifteen, but seventeen seems so much older for some reason --another year closer to being an adult. Yikes! Let us not dwell on such things. ;)

I'm photographing a wedding today. And I'm..well.. you know, SCARED TO DEATH. I've been staying up late looking up pose ideas and many, many, many posts on how to be a more confident photographer. Prayers would be so much appreciated! <3 But you know, I hope bet it will all turn out okay, because no one ever got anywhere by worrying, did they? 

p.s. The pictures below are from last week when my mom, sisters and I took advantage of the amazing weather by going on a walk. We met a lovely stranger cat along the way, and my sisters gave it plenty of hugs and pets. Though by the end of it, the cat was too overwhelmed by their love that it ran dramatically off into the distance.

  3. I love october too. On halloween I'll be 14... Yikes is right. Being 13 was a big deal of course, but 14 means I really am a teen. (Sorry if that sounded weird.)

  4. Oooh! Photos please! Seriously, as a bride myself - I put all faith in my photographer. If YOU feel a lack of confidence with poses and what not, just remember that the couple is probably 12 times more freaked out than you are (and know about zilch when it comes to photos and "natural" posing!) So don't worry, you'll do fantastic, I'm sure!!

  10. I understand the frustration of fall weather even more than an Indiana girl, because I live in the deep South, where we don't comprehend what a real winter looks like and finally accept that fall weather doesn't come until around late October, although we have had some delightful days recently! And I know that you will capture the memories of the wedding wonderfully!

    I love the pictures! This reminds me so much of my own family! "[T]he cat was too overwhelmed by their love that it ran dramatically off into the distance." Hehehe!

  15. A few of my own random thoughts as a comment:
    These are lovely. Like so very much.
    Seventeen was my favorite age. It was just so incredibly radical and sometimes I want to go back. Not an adult yet with those responsibilities, but not really a kid yet. Grown up but not quite. It was amazing and I wish you the best.
    YOUR BLOG DESIGN SLASH COLORS SLASH ASTHETIC. totally killing it, girl.
    I know I'm late (hehe busy life please forgive) but I'm sure the wedding went awesome. Every day is a learning experience, and everyday is sweet.

    i turn eighteen today (OCTOBER BABIES UNITE), and i totally understand the freaking out nearing adulthood thingamajig. it's scaring me a little, but well, i'm glad that we grow up so we can always remember to treasure the memories that matter.

  17. Beautiful pictures in this post! And I hope your wedding photography went well!
    Enjoy 17! It was my favorite age--old enough to get the respect due to an adult and young enough to not be given the responsibility of an adult! :)

  19. When was your birthday, Eve? Mine was on the 29th of October. :) Maybe we share a birthday!
    Summer has been overstaying its welcome here in Germany, too, but it's slowly getting colder. I love winter the most, and usually we have a very early one, although this year it's undoubtedly less so. We completely skipped autumn!

    Love these photographs, too. I've had my eyes on a good DSLR lately so I'll be less embarrassed about sharing my photographs on my blog. I'm sure you were an amazing wedding photographer, and if not, there's always a chance to try again.

    By the way, Eve, you were a follower of my old blog, but since I changed URL my GFC widget has been malfunctioning. If you still want to follow me, you're welcome to. I think if you unfollow and refollow that should do the trick and you'll be receiving my posts again in the Blogger dashboard. You can find the new blog here. I'd love to see you there! :)
