we made it! ahh, so glad to be home in atlanta! it was quite the long weekend; we actually ended up spending all day monday sleeping on the beach, but minus some sunburn (don’t bother asking matt to apply sunscreen to your back ;) ) we’re doing a-ok. phew. except that it’s 11:30 and i’m exhausted, but maybe that’s not the weekend, maybe i just need to realize that i’m getting old an adult. ;)
so, help please! should we get netflix? we’ve been playing with the idea for a while now. we rarely make it out to the theatre and there aretonsofmoviesout that one or both of us have been wanting to see…and netflix seems easy enough, right?
in exchange for your review of netflix i give you my review of this round handle facial brush. for the same price of a beginner netflix plan you can own this beauty. this is the least expensive, most significant thing i own. use it and there isn’t a stitch of makeup left on your face and you feel all tingly and smooth. fabulous. seriously, skip the spa and give this brush a week, you’ll thank me later! ;)
i’m excited about getting some wedding pics up soon; stick around!!
it’s been an eventful day already! we squeezed in an engagement session this morning for jessica and earl hours before earl’s leave was scheduled to end, whew! glad we made it though, jessica wanted greenery so over christmas (his next leave) wasn’t quite a viable option. it was great to hang out with them more and take some shots, but it might be a little while before those pictures surface because we have two weddings to go this weekend!!
we’re excited about ed and leanne’s intimate outdoor affair this afternoon/evening. we stopped in the marlow house earlier this week to check out where we’d be shooting and got so inspired by the landscaping and decor, can’t wait to share some pics from there! we’ll be grabbing a few hours of sleep before jumping back in the car and heading to tybee island for jessica and mark’s wedding, ah the beach, can’t even wait! jessica is a friend of matt’s from high school and when i finally met her over christmas she was so excited and happy about her wedding that it really rubbed off on me! they’ll be getting married on the battery which is sure to be classy and i’m also excited i’ll get to see andrea there as a bridesmaid! sounds like good times overload, eh? we shall see! we’re pretty high energy people but this will be the test to see if we ever book a two wedding weekend again! i’ll keep you posted! happy long weekend friends!
hello faithful friends, i must apologize for our serious lack of posting lately! once last week, seriously kate?? ugh, embarrassing – especially since (maybe unbeknownst to you, but still) i have a personal goal of blogging 2 – 3 times a week!
i have to catch you up! let’s start with – matt’s last day at his ad agency is tomorrow! yikes/yeay! i’m pretty excited about having him to myself from now on but it also means we’ll be taking on a crazy amount of work, good thing we love taking pictures, like, tons of them! we celebrated his retirement when he gave his two weeks – by purchasing matt’s first pair of flip flops, it was only fitting ;)
today i experienced a rare joy. i finished off our frosted mini wheats. some of you are already celebrating alongside me because you’ve enjoyed this yourself. for those of you who haven’t experienced the sweet crumbled end of this particular cereal, i highly recommend it. actually, next time i buy it i’ll just shake it up a little and maybe at the end of the box i’ll enjoy two bowls of dusty sugary goodness!?
as of last night, we’re officially a one car couple. we’ve been looking forward to this for a while, maybe it seems a strange thing to be excited about – what do you expect of us? maybe it comes together better for you when i mention that we sold a gas guzzling jeep grand cherokee? we’ll miss it for sure, but with both of us working from home and working together on the weekends, it was a little tough to justify keeping that big white beast. adieu!
we squeezed in a couple of dates to see two bands that have been in our top ten for quite some time now, iron & wine and radiohead! two totally different shows, two totally rad nights!!
ah, i cannot believe i haven’t told you, we incorporated! we are now altmix photography, inc. woah, right? official! :)
tonight i made a fab chicken soup because we’ve both been a bit sick. i was really excited to serve it when matt walked in the door and informed me we might as well eat plain bread because he couldn’t taste a thing. as we ate our soup i tried to imagine what it must be like for matt to eat it and not taste it. i grossed myself out so much focusing on the textures i almost couldn’t finish my own…
side note: clearly matt’s meds are making him delirious. right now, he’s taking a break from editing to dance (in his own unique style) to air in our living room. it is definitely for my entertainment, but still, like i said, delirious. ;)
sorry for the random nature of this post, there’s a lot to be done with our business, but one of my favorite parts is meeting people through this blog and chronicling the adventure that is our crazy life. i, kate altmix, solemnly swear to post at least 2 – 3 times a week, from now on, even though it’s wedding season, and even though i’m a little congested, and …
