Stunning Sistas.

It was Jenna {eldest sis} and Taylor's {youngest sis} very first trip to Fountain Square on the day we got together for our shoot. So, as i am in that area quite often, it was my distinct pleasure to show them around a bit!

None of us had met in person before, but the look and vibe of that quaint, gritty place really worked well with the girls! {yay!}
The sisters not only had sweet personalities, but had faaaabuloussss style {3 outfit changes, woo!}, sooo suffice it to say, they were a photog's dream {now, don't let that get to your heads, ladies - ha :) }.
Each time they came out {of their mama's Jeep - aka: the changing room} i'd have a whole new string of compliments on their choice of attire and accessories. Although, my personal favorite stylish item was Taylor's vintage spoon necklace - who couldn't love such a quirky, dainty thing?!

I am SO glad Jenna discovered me and that I had the opportunity to meet and snap these cute chicks!

And THANKS to the girls for putting up with all my ideas and the hot, hot heat of the day!
Enjoy our little shoot in zee Square. :)

These two black and whites are some of my top favies from the day. :)




their mom and grandmother - who tagged along - semi-jokingly asked for some photos where "they look like they love each other." heh. :p


silly - checking each other's teeth - between shots.



For more of these hott little mamas, check out my Facebook album soon-to-come on my Lauren Ashley Photography + Design page with more from this shoot!

Mad Hat{ter}.

Sooo, as some of you may know, i am uprooting myself to NYC about a month from now - persuing my dream of fashion photography and etc... well, one of my favorite photographers is The Sartorialist, Scott Schuman. i've decided that i am going to do my own spin on candid fashion photos once i am in the BIG CITY.
Whilst perusing Mass Ave with my camera last week, i happened upon this adorably fashionable woman with a GREAT hat in a Starbucks. i felt an itsy bitsy bit stalker-ish - watching her, then walking over with my massive camera, buuut i figured, what's the worst that could happen??

Turns out she was VERY flattered and surprised! then, she came to sit with me and we chatted and made friends!
Here is my very 1st sartorialist-ism ... be prepared for more {hereafter august 15th ... ;) }.

turns out she is a featured painter in the new Indpls airport! :)
check her out - she is one talented woman!

Gabrielle's Field Frolick.

On a lovely May evening just this past week, I met up with my pal and fellow blogger fashionista Gabrielle.

My fab friend needed some photographs of herself for her blog, you see.
She originally wanted to be in a corn field, as suggested by the subhead of her blog. Alas, May just isn't the time to find corn fields for frolicking! ::tear::

Fortunately, i had some pretty grassy clearings in mind already. :)

Gabrielle and i skipped and trudged our way through weeds and marshland to the get these pics - and boy do i enjoy them! She just couldn't be cuter, eh?

By the time we were through, the two of us had VERY wet, muddy feet, and quite a few mosquito bites. Ooh, the price of outdoorsy photography!

Enjoy, and happy mothers day, of course!

xoxo

Hello, beautiful! Check out Gabrielle and her style secrets at http://hauteintheheartland.blogspot.com/

How can you not frolick through marshland without chuckling? ;)


All tuckered out from her field jaunt.



On the cutting edge of beauty and fashion - rocking the tree branch head piece couture ... :P

Goofy + sophisticated = just the way i like her! :)
