Well, just like that, and it’s all over! I haven’t taken down the Christmas tree yet and I don’t plan to until after the New Year. I like to keep the Christmas season going for as long as I possibly can. To keep it real, we’re just sending out our Christmas cards this week. But I’m fine with that because I was committed to enjoying the season and not worrying about anything else. Sunday was the first time we could get to the cards, so therefore, Sunday is when we started. It was a freeing way to approach the season and it really allowed me to enjoy things more. We had a wonderful Christmas Day and I was absolutely spoiled by my family the entire day for my birthday. It was just perfect!
We’re currently taking the last week off for rest, relaxation and to simply refresh ourselves for the New Year. We’ve gotten to see some great movies such as Avatar and Sherlock Holmes. I’ve taken as many naps as I possibly could in order to make up for all of the sleep I was deprived of earlier in the year. And I was finally able to finish the book I’ve been reading the last few months. I’ve also gotten to finally read through some of the magazines that have been piling up over the months. When I came across the December cover of BAZAAR, I was blown away. It could be because of my slight infatuation with Twilight, but I just loved the look, the feel, and the way the photographer posed Bella and Edward. Oops, I mean, Kristen and Robert. This one, along with another from their shoot, will be torn out and taped into my book of ideas. Vitaliy and I are constantly searching for inspiration, ideas, or poses for our future work. I could definitely see using this look in an upcoming wedding or engagement shoot. They are beautiful…and I don’t just mean the people.

It’s pictures like this that make me want to go ahead and let Vitaliy get a motorcycle. What do you think folks, could Vitaliy and I pull a look like this off?

I thought that was a picture you took! I’m not a Twilight person– lol. I WISH we still had our motorcycle so you could take a pic of Anthony and I like that! haha.
You should do Twilight-inspired pics at the Palace of Fine Arts in SF. It’s the perfect venue!
You and Vitaliy can pull off both pics!
I live inspiration like this!

Love it, love it! Can’t wait to see these pictures of you two someday! So interesting that you get ideas for poses in other pictures you see — no wonder yours look so amazing — you learn from the best — and i’m sure a lot of it is natural talent too!
