A little birdy told me…
I hope you all had a good weekend! I spent time with a dear friend from Idaho and then went to the Jazz game with my sweet little brother and dad. I love that we go to the Jazz games. Sometimes it’s nice to spend time with just my dad and brother. We always have a blast at the games! (make sure you are following me on Instagram to see fun pictures @lovemedanimarie)
First I want to share someone pretty legit with you. Her name is Rea Simpson and she is the owner and photographer behind RS Photography and Design. She is truly amazing. I am so excited to share her with all of you. All photos posted on my blog will now be from her. Her work is truly stunning! She has an amazing eye for pictures and has truly affordable prices! If you are in need of some pictures, you need to call her ASAP! Rea is offering all my readers $50 off their session fees if you mention my blog! How amazing is that!? Scroll down below the outfit to learn more about amazing Rea and see some of her photos!
Okay so now to the post! How darling is this skirt? A little birdy told me you all need it in your closet! I have been looking for a good skirt that has a lot of volume, they are a lot harder to find than you would think! C.C. Lake had this darling one and I knew I had to snatch it up. I absolutely love it! It has the perfect fit and gives such a feminine look to an outfit. I paired it with a little sparkle in my baggy tee and a cardigan. I wanted this to be a very girly look.

Here is a little bit about Rea!
My love for photography started in high school. I was on the yearbook staff at Firth High and fell in love with it especially the darkroom process. I loved it and spent many hours there, I also loved the page layout and design, with four years of advanced art…I thought I was the next Picasso. I went to Utah State University to study Art and photography. However, I met a guy and only studied one year, went home and got married and raised my family. I do not regret that at all, but five years ago when my youngest was a junior I deiced to get back into all of it…and with my families overwhelming support that is what I am doing!!!
I do wedding, families and seniors and newborn…..you name it, but my favorite is High School seniors and fashion! I love the energy the kids have and the the energy the fashion industry has its infectious to me!! I am drawn to it!! I love working with a great model on a super cool concept..nothing better. One of my favorites shoots to date is my parachute dress that I made then we went to the salt flats and shot. My model Ginger Jensen was fabulous!! Its a natural kind of satisfaction…almost a high of some kind that I get when I am shooting…I just love it…guess that is why I am always saying “love love love” when I shoot!!
Pretty sure I need your bag…..I die…
I just fell in love with your purse I love bows
aww that game must have been so fun- this post kinda made me miss my brothers and dad, haha! and even though your skirt is super cute (i LOVE full skirts) your shoes are the showstoppers for me. I love love love their vintage feel, and that color is so perfect for fall.
PS I found you through Sami’s Shenanigans linkup 😉

I wish I could work with a good photographer… or with bloggers AS their photographer. I hate my location, growl. I bet it’s super fun to take pictures of you. 😉
I didn’t know you were a photographer!? Where do you live at!?!?
Thank you so much! It’s a fun one!
Thank you!! I love the skirt too, but the shoes do push it over the top! Thanks so much for your sweet words!!
Isn’t it so fun!? I love to use it for a more feminine look to an outfit

It’s from Windsor! They still have it. It is the greatest!!
Thank you so much!!

I am! I do fine art photography (I sell prints, cards and phone cases on Etsy and I’m working on a photo-printed fabric fashion line) and product photography for shops, but portraiture is one of those things I know I’m good at and wish I had a chance to really work on. Alas, I live in a small city in Spain and 99% of the people I interact with regularly are in another country!
