just lovely!

I truly feel accomplished and hopeful and confident. having a lot of time on my hands did lead me to coordinate an impromptu fun girly photo shoot with some close girl friends when I got home though.  I was thoroughly impressed with the outcome! I have to edit a bunch still, but here are some photos of me that my lovely friend Heart Jianca took of me for now!

And, here is a sneak peak of some edited photos I took of Liz & Jia!

Also,  I got to meet up with one of my dearest friends miss Stephanie Sky Flower this past week. I hadn't seen her or her fiance Marcus in about a year and a half or more. They just had an adorable, gorgeous baby girl named Leilani. They are amazing people and are getting married in November. I will be the lucky person that shoots their wedding! Stephanie is doing a complete DIY wedding. From making her dress, to growing her own flowers,  Marcus will be constructing their alter from Bamboo. I am so inspired by them, and will link photos and and feature her posts and blog later on in November. Lately, Sky Flower has been doing  "30 day hoop mama challange" videos. She hula hoops for 30 minutes a day for 30 days. Her videos also feature recipes, gardening advice, tips and tricks to hula hooping, and new mom tips! I was featured in one of her videos near the end, I figured it would be a good time to post it here. We had a blast and I cant wait to do it again!  

Sara and Sky Flower Hula Hoop!

Also, Stephanie & Leilani modeled for a photographer named Donna Green. I thought their whole shoot turned out absolutely gorgeous. So here is a photo I absolutely am IN LOVE with from their shoot!
