We made it…Day 14 of my 14 Hearts blog challenge! When I look at the image I’ve selected for Heart no. 14, one caption keeps running through my mind…

What is the secret to your love?

Wishing you a Happy Valentines Day! xoxo

The Irish Claddagh ring is so cool when it comes to expressing love. On it’s own it symbolizes the key factors of love with three design elements. A heart representing love, two hands holding the heart for friendship, and a crown to honor loyalty. Cool, right? If that weren’t enough, you have four options of wearing the ring, which can symbolize that you are single, your heart is taken, engaged, or married.

My niece has worn a Claddagh ring for as long as I can remember. I appreciate Abby letting me photograph her ring for today’s entry in my 14 hearts countdown to Valentines Day blog challenge…

heart {no. 6}

Heart number six is in honor of my new friend Clayton Austin who is visiting this weekend, all the way from Texas! In addition to being the speaker at our CNY PUG meeting on Monday, Clayton also flew all this way so he could photograph some portraits in the snow here. With that in mind, I present heart number six…

Don’t forget I’m a newbie at this blog challenge business, but hang in there with me. Today’s entry is a little different from the rest. Instead of making a heart, Beth my sister “found” a heart. Kind of like when you’re laying on a blanket looking up at a summer sky and you see a shape in the clouds that reminds of you something…. only this time it was a winter day, (about 20 frickin’ degrees outside), we were standing up, and Beth pointed out the heart shape in one of the old magnificent trees in her yard. She and I both thought “that’s no. 5.”

Here is a recent pic of my amazing sister Beth. She is rocking her new everyday casual but oh so glamorous winter coat and a lovely new “do” by our friend Krista at Lavish Hair Salon…

Thanks for all that you do Beth! xoxo

And now for the portraits.

Ernie gazing, Megan beaming, and some yummy Santa Barbara sunshine…

I think these next two images are becoming sort of a signature set for me. I love the cheek kiss, and I love processing them in this vintagey-sepia-love.

Love the sunsets in Santa Barbara!

Michelle drew this cute heart in the sand, and I just love it…

Okay Megan and Ernie, you two are just too darn good looking…

“Hello this is Alilce. Oh hello Hallmark Greeting Cards. Why, in fact, yes I do have the perfect wedding card photo…”

bliss…

I’m coo coo for this last image…
