Collaborations: Baby Shower for Banyan!

We are so excited that our friend Mimi has moved back to Sarasota!  She is due with her first baby in early January.  We threw a baby shower for her a few weeks ago.  

(Conveniently, a nautical theme!  Great for an Anchored Joy post.)  

We set to work photographing the details...

Although this was how Alisia was feeling 1 hour before the shower (as the hostess)...

the shower was a lovely success!

Affections: Gipe Family

Dear Gipes, Oh how I love you!

One of the best parts of having a photography partner is taking plenty of pics for each other!

With Val's impending move looming in the very near future (sigh, tear, choke... hysterical bawling), 

we thought it very important to capture some of her everyday life in her home of the last 5 years.
