sugar, sugar (a sweet photoshoot)


Okay, so before you see all these pictures and start judging us, we did have a reason for gathering up tons of sugary foods and photographing ourselves with it. However, at this point, that’s all the information I’ll be posting here 🙂 
 
Since Rachel missed out on our last trip to the abandoned church, we took a little trip out there last week on one of the nice days. We were both working on something that required lots of photos/videos. I thought it would be fun to share some of the pictures we took. All the pictures of me were taken by Rachel. Although I can’t blame her for the poor editing.

So we may be a bit strange–but it was such a fun night with a crazy amount of laughter. Thanks for going along and letting me use your pictures Rachel!

abandoned


I’ll start out this post by saying how good my husband is to me. He knows how badly I sometimes need to get out for the day and spend time with friends. So occasionally, I get to go out while he stays at home with all the kids. 

Monday was one of those days. Coincidentally, it was also the hottest day this year (I think!) A while back, our friend Rachel had told us about an abandoned church in the city, but she didn’t know the location. Once she finally figured it out, we decided to round up the photography club and head out there. Unfortunately, Rachel was not feeling well that day so she wasn’t able to go 🙁 

I was so excited to be able to photograph at this church. Once I got home, I realized my pictures actually didn’t really turn out too well. So I guess I’ll have to head out there again (on a not-so-hot day.) 
These pictures are a mix of dslr and iPhone.

of course the trip wouldn’t have been complete without a stop at a Gen 3 Quiktrip for their delicious soft pretzels and some frozen custard at Andy’s (and a couple thrift stores)
