Around the World in 24 hours!
Sep 24, 2012 / Our Life
Ok...so it wasn't around the whole world, and it took more like a week, but you get the picture!
Last week was beyond busy for us! We had so much to do and so many places to be that we couldn't really make sense of it all until it was over. We were on the road from Tuesday until we made a pit stop at home on Friday to do a little laundry, a quick bridal session, and hit the road again! I am writing this blog from our hotel room in Nashville as we make the trek north to visit my family in Indiana.Here is a little glimpse into what some may call "last week" but we choose to call it the most fun we have had in four-day period :)
First thing we did when we got into town was stop in our old stomping grounds at Texas A&M to give a guest lecture to a class about how our degrees in Animal Science led us to owning our own business today as wedding photographers. We were expecting about 35 people (based off Cat's memory of the number of people in the class when she was a student) but things have changed a bit in the past 11 years since she took the class and now it was 230! After we got over the initial shock of the crowd, and after being nervous in the corner before giving our talk, we ended up having a great time and meeting so many friendly students.
Next up was the first evening away from home. We got to meet up with an awesome couple, Morgan and Kyle, and spend a little time together for a quick Save the Date shoot! We have their engagements scheduled in a couple of months, but they asked if we could meet for a quick couple of minutes on our road trip to get them a Save the Date shot! So glad we did, these two are awesome and we wanted to have a slumber party afterwards!
After our little mini-session, we met up at a local sushi place with some friends and talked until they closed the restaurant and kicked us out!
The next day, we were the ones in-front of the cameras! We were asked to be a part of the new Ring Wraps Commercial and little did we know how much fun it would be! We were a little nervous going in to it, because this will be our first official television appearance, and we wanted to make sure that we knocked it out of the park!

Look at us on the little monitor! #celebs! I think that we are going to start the Real Housewives of Boling series! We loved watching the whole filming process!
Here is the whole group from the first day of filming. Cat and I with Emily Huskinson from Ring Wraps and two of the most amazing go-getters around, Lina and Tina from Twinz Co..
That afternoon it was Abby's (our studio assistant) turn to work it! Randa at Southern Jewlz styled Abby from head-to-toe for her senior pictures! Just wait until you see the rest!
Our last day in College Station, we had the Southern Jewlz Fall Photo Shoot! Just wait until you see what the Southern Jewlz girls have put together for their fall collection! It will knock your socks off! I went to school with Randa, the Southern Jewlz owner, and Cat and I have known her for a long time! We have nightly chats about the most random things, but we have also been blessed to watch Randa grow her business into on of the fanciest boutiques around! Ladies beware - you will want to buy everything you see!
After a long days work, we took this by sitting the camera on the tailgate of a truck and using the timer! Luckily, we got it on our first attempt!
Today we are meeting with some photography friends of ours Zach & Jody Gray in Nashville to catch up and visit. Then we make the rest of the trip north to spend a little time with my family and try and convince Cat to go on a canoeing trip with us! #goodlucktome!
