I’m at the beach! It’s finally time for the annual Pritchard/Thomas/Hassell beach trip to Ocean Isle. Vaughan’s whole family (aunts, uncles, cousins, grandparents) take a weeklong trip every year to their vacation house at the beach and I love coming with them! We usually end up relaxing, drinking beer, and eating A LOT. It’s a nice break from the routine even if it’s not so nice for my pants size. If you’ve never been to Ocean Isle, I highly recommend it.

I have exciting news: I got a new camera last week! It’s one I’ve been looking at for a while and a dramatic turn of events sped up the process. In the end, its a GREAT thing for my business and I’m really excited about it! I’m gonna have to learn how to shoot some video while I’m learning all the ins and outs of the camera, too! So please let me know if anyone is interested in letting me take your picture with my brand-spankin-new gear! My pricing info is here and you can email me at LAUREN@LAURENJOLLYPHOTOGRAPHY.COM

Tomorrow I will debut yet another styled shoot! This one was based off of a kraft paper stationery suite that Sarah at Bella Joviality designed. The whole thing is freaking adorable! So if you need some inspiration for your upcoming wedding, shower, or event, be sure to stop back by tomorrow for the rest of this kraft paper goodness:

Happy Wednesday!
