Love is in the air.

Last week, I had the privilege of taking engagement photos for Greg Sturm and Shelby Sutton at the Sturm's beautiful house. The Sturms are such dear friends and the day could not have been any more beautiful. Here are a few favorites...

The End is Near!

Things left before summer can begin:

• Finish 15 page Third Year Writing paper on the cultural influence of advertising.
• Finish watching Rear Window in Third Year Writing (Jealous?)
• Study for my Marketing final (eek!)
• Eat tasty Mexican food in my design class.

Whew... it feels so much less daunting to see it written out! 

I can do it!

breaking for spring.

Why do the school days laboriously drag by, but my amazing spring break in Charleston, SC with Caitlin, Stephanie and Jenny was over in the blink of an eye? Alas... such is life.

Lori's Place Gourmet Delights

 

I found these on Etsy. Could they be any more adorable? 

Cutest cookies ever.  

Felt Menagerie

Here is a little blog I started for the little critters I craft...

'Tis shameful...

... how long I go without posting anything! But should I be surprised? No. I've never been very good at keeping up with these sort of things.

Oh well, we all have our flaws.

Okay, so the other day, Benjamin and I had the most intellectual conversation over some Baja Burrito concerning a most pressing topic: Which movies have influenced you the most? Now, we weren't speaking in the sense of what movies you love right now, or what movies heighten your "indie cred." Rather, what movies, in the span of your life, would you say summarize/shape your personality?

So, here is my list (do not judge):

• Anne of Green Gables
• Pride & Prejudice (the 6-part A&E version)
• Hamlet (the Kenneth Branagh version)
• The Lord of the Rings Trilogy 
  
• Sense & Sensibility
• Beauty & the Beast
• The Little Mermaid
  
• Braveheart
• The Village
• Amelie

Now, what is your list?

Summertime

Summer is finally here!

This one is a little bittersweet.

I'm happy to be home and start nannying next week, but Benjamin is staying in Nashville.
My heart is in two places.

Also, Jenny Humphrey may just be the most adorable person ever.

Rainy Day

If ever I'm feeling blue, I look at this picture, and it cheers me up...
(This is the little girl I nanny for.)

Welcome! I've decided, at long last, that I shall start my very own photo blog.

My intent in giving birth to this little scrap of internet space is to share my latest work and some favorites from the past with those who may find themselves here.

I am always ready and willing to take: Band Photos, Senior Pictures, Engagement Photos, Family Portraits, Weddings and other such events. Contact me at mausl@pop.belmont.edu if you are interested, or tell someone you may know that is in need of being photographed.
