Head over heels.

"Ma'am, you need to turn off your phone for landing," the airline stewardess addressed me personally tonight since I was obviously stuck in la la land. Yes, I was looking at my wallpaper of my iPhone AGAIN. Half my battery power the past few days has been lost because of all the sneak peeks gushing over my new wallpaper backdrop that I've been clicking on just to see the picture over and over again. Gosh, now I know how my clients feel anxiously waiting to see their pictures!

While I was in California again the past few days, my love and I had an impromptu photoshoot with the fabulous Mike Steelman. Mark and I really were just going out to dinner with Mike and his beautiful 8.5 month pregnant wife, but as Mike showed us around his cool ranch property beforehand, he couldn't help but grab his camera and soak up the pretty lighting that was about to set behind the mountain. And I couldn't help but grab Mark and smother him in some kisses for the camera.

Here's a teaser pic Mike sent us and I just wanted to show off my hot man and how happy he makes me.



And we actually have Mike to thank for introducing us, kind of. It was last September that Mark and I first met at PartnerCon, that Mike invited Mark to attend with him. Then the first night everyone got there, everyone was hanging out in the lounge and that's when I met them both. (I have a picture with Mike, but I don't know what happened to Mark, ha!) Then Mike helped bring Mark to WPPI in February when Mark and I really got to know each other better, so it was great to see Mike again and have a double date with him and his wife.

I'm heading back to California the week of May 10 (I know, racking up the frequent flyer miles a lot lately), and I already have some people asking me to shoot some photo sessions while I'm out there. So if you are around the Monterey or surrounding areas and interested in having me shoot a session for you, whether engagement, bridal, family, senior, whatever, I'm now accepting limited openings to schedule your session! I can't wait to shoot in all the beauty of that area, so email me at scarlett@scarlettlillian.com and I'll be happy to send you my info! I'm also accepting weddings now in the Monterey area for complimentary travel fees, so if you know someone getting married, I appreciate your referral!

Amber & Tommy are engaged!

Amber and Tommy are the perfect example of a couple who thinks they aren't photogenic, and keeps apologizing during the session, but then their photos turn out so great because they totally rocked it just being themselves! I loved all the goofing off they do together catching those candid moments of their laughter and that special giggle between them. They have soooo much fun together and I know that will last a long time in their upcoming marriage! This Tennessee couple drove all the way to Florida for their beach session, so I was thrilled that God blessed us with beautiful sunshine with not a cloud in the sky!

Here's my faves and their slideshow below!

Mom was on the radio!

I've always trusted that God doesn't give us "tests" with out using it to create a "test"imony. I knew at the beginning of my dad's cancer journey that He would one day use his story to reach other people. Little did I know the impact his life would go on to have with all the blog readers that followed his journey and the hundreds of you that sent him cards and followed our journey in his battle against lung cancer.

Now that he is gone, he continues to live on not only in our memories, but in other ways too. The night before Easter, my mom was interviewed on a local radio station about my dad's story by an organization called Christ's Starfish. I was so excited for her to continue sharing the beautiful story of hope and faith that my dad's memory has left behind. I keep telling her that she needs to send her blog to a Christian book publisher because what an amazing book it would make! (Anyone have any hook ups out there in blog land???)

Anyways, I just wanted to share the interview with all of you because I'm so proud of her! And it's funny how things come around because when my parents were in their first years of marriage, my mom was the first female disc jockey in Jacksonville on WQIK! So to be interviewed on the radio again talking about my dad all these years later, I just thought that was cute!

Enjoy the interview! Click the link below to play the MP3.

In the ATL to shoot with Mike Colon


With Mike and his cute wife Julie at WPPI this year.
Photo by David Esquire.


This weekend I'm in Atlanta to shoot a super adorable wedding with the oh so fabulous Mike Colon for his oh so sweet assistant, Rosanna, who is getting married!



Rosanna and Jared were our superstar models while I was in Hawaii at Mike's workshop, and I totally enjoyed getting to know her while in paradise. My buddy Luke Edmonson will also be there shooting with us, so I'm looking forward to the great workshop reunion it will be!



While in town, I'm also looking forward to seeing my beautiful bride Stacey who just celebrated her one-year anniversary with Ted. We'll be having lunch with her friend whose upcoming wedding I'll also be shooting! Yay!



I'll be back at my desk on Tuesday, and will return all emails then! Have a great weekend everyone!

Brittani spent the day with me!

A few days after modeling for Lori and I, Brittani came and spent a day with me too to hang out and chat about all things photography! I loved getting my camera on her again for some headshots, Brittani has one of those natural supermodel faces! Turns out, she did do a little modeling when she was younger and even ended up on MTV! This model turned photographer is now growing her business and starting to get into weddings, so it was fun to give her some tips on how to interact with couples and schedule the wedding day so that it all flows smoothly!

Here's my favorite shots of Britt and then from our flirt photoshoot with oh so cute high school sweethearts Nicole and Matt!














Yes, I was recreating my oh so cheesy pose with my own love! :-)




















This picture cracks me up because when we were shooting, all of sudden Nicole burst out with "You look like a BUG!"

Lori spent the day with me!

Sometimes moms just need to get away, and Lori was enjoying a mini get away here to Florida from Ohio. She has mostly been doing portraits and now is ready to break into the wedding industry, so we had a great time chatting about an average wedding day and what to expect. She was needing some bridal portraits in her portfolio, so we had fun playing with this vintage dress our model Brittani found. Brittani actually is a photographer too and also spent the day with me last week. Her session is up next!

Here's cute Lori and my favorites from the photoshoot below!














I love how totally eerie this one is!










Uh, trying something different than the same ol same ol. :-)


And Lori in action!
