St. Patty's Birthday
First and foremost, Happy Birthday to my darling husband, Tim! Today this handsome man turns another year older, wiser, and sexier ;) For this birthday I wish you, Tim, a year full of wonderful experiences, success, clarity, understanding, growth, great health, travel plans, and so much more. I am honored each day to wake up with you by my side and learn about life with you as my guide. The dedication you have of listening to others, being 1,000% selfless, and extremely hard-

January Babes
First and foremost, happy birthday to my lovely sister, Gabi! Today she turns 22!!! What?! I cannot believe my little sister is all grown up. Don't get me wrong either, even though she is getting married this summer, is 22, juggles work and school full time- I still see her like the little sister I'd go on bike adventures with and beg her to give me the last bite of her chocolate bar (even though I had eaten mine already. She wouldn't cave in though. I swore she had super wil

New Year. Better Me.
Welcome, 2017 we've been anxiously waiting for you to arrive! With the New Year here many of us have set grand resolutions. Many of us want that slick, toned summer body and have signed up at gyms. Other are determined to try new diets to hopefully get that summer bod and others are wanting to conquer their fears and take on the world. Don't those goals sounds amazing?! Well, of course, YES! But personally I think it would be hard to achieve some of those goals. These New Yea

Thanksgiving Family Shoot
Since before Tim and I were married we would always go to his family's house for Thanksgiving. Thanksgiving in the Bruchez / Lopez household is always the perfect start to the holidays. Early on this year we were lucky enough to gain Tim's brother, Pete and his family, all the way from Hawaii. Having them nearby has been such a blessing. Gatherings are merrier, brighter, and funner! Since we were heading their way for Thanksgiving we took the opportunity to schedule a time fo

Gabi + Blair : Brooklyn Bridge
This Saturday these two love birds met me on the Brooklyn Bridge for a fun photo session. Pictured above is my sister, Gabriella and her boyfriend, Blair. For anyone that knows these two they are the cutest, most happiest pair around. Since I knew Blair was getting out of work early that day I said to him, "You, Gabs, and I + mini photo shoot! What do you say?" And he ,of course, said let's do this! The Brooklyn Bridge is such an awesome place to take pictures. The crowds of

Museum of Ice Cream!
Yesterday Tim and I went into the city for a day date to end the summer with a visit to the Museum of Ice Cream! In late July before the very grand opening of the museum there was a video circulating the Internet giving the general public an inside scoop on the museum! Of course, when I saw it I went straight to their website and saw it was SOLD OUT! Whaaat?! I couldn't wrap my head around that! How it could already be sold out and not even open yet. So, like any hopeful sou

Martin Creed: The Back Door
The other day Tim and I explored the Upper East Side for a fun day date at the Armory. I heard about the exhibition, Martin Creed: The Back Door, through one of my favorite bloggers @Taza on Instagram. When I saw giant white balloons I knew I had to come check it out! (balloons are my favorite) The Back Door is amazingly put together using different styles of art form that create contrast and contradictions as to what you'd expect. The whole interior of the armory is beautifu

Central Park on a Saturday
Alrighty then, so a couple of months ago I booked a family photo session with the most amazingly, talented human known as Lizzy Williams. I came across her work on Instagram and immediately checked to see if she was headed to the East Coast any time soon, and she was! Talk about the excitement on my end. After much anticipation fast forward to a Saturday in May with Central Park as our location, and BOOM! (magic was made) Liz was an absolute gem. We meet bright and early and
