my pact.

By | Personal | 7 Comments

watch out! three rockin’ couple’s engagement sessions for your viewing pleasure:

you know we’re photographers. you know about yellow bike. you know that matt thinks i eat too many pickles and that i think matt is a total stud. what you don’t know is that right now i’m in a bit of a crisis. this happens every year, twice.

i dig under the bed for my huge tupperware bins of the upcoming season’s clothes and what i find i might as well throw out the window. i did not wear these things! but oh yes i did. and now that it’s getting cooler and i’m pulling out the warmer clothes the thought of wearing these things again just makes me cringe.

you must know, i’m not a clothes snob, not even close. but seriously every time i go under that bed and check out what i have to offer myself for the upcoming season i just get discouraged. i wear boring clothes. i cannot even cover that up with the word ‘classic.’ really, just boring. safe. those are not the words that describe the clothes i really like, just the ones i end up buying. i have more soft cotton, solid color shirts than most of the population. i need to make a pact with myself this season, and in order to keep it, i’m sharing it with you: this season i will take risks and buy a few pieces that i just love, instead of filling the closet with more of what it already has. not a life-shattering pact, i know. but it’s time. thanks for listening!
