Van Vleck House and Gardens: Maternity Session
This past Saturday I met up with an old high school peer at the gorgeous Van Vleck House and Gardens to take her maternity pictures. This location is such a dream to shoot at. Sam, the mama-to-be, was such a trooper throughout the entire session. Let me just say being 38 weeks pregnant in summer is hard work, and man oh man does she make it look amazing! Below are some pictures from the session. :) Only a couple more weeks until Baby Jabree arrives! I cannot wait to meet the

Sunday Kind of Love
Since the first day of Fall I have been eagerly waiting for the leaves to change colors. There is something so romantic about it. All the reds, oranges, yellows, and brown leaves make the scenery look breathtaking. Luckily, I brought my dslr to church with us this past Sunday and grabbed a couple shots! And of course a big special thanks to K for taking these. :) Here are some pictures from Sunday's stroll through Monmouth Battlefield State Park :) loved the timeless look of

The Sweet Life
The past couple of weeks I have felt the wonderful blessings of life pouring in from every angle imaginable. The days are brighter, and happier! Plus, Fall is just the perfect charmer to make everything feel even more magical. Since resigning my from administrative assistant position and becoming a full time student for this Fall semester I feel like I've been on cloud 9. The school I am currently in is amazing. The staff is warm and welcoming, especially my Kindergarten team

Soccer Saturday
Fall is here. I feel it, taste it, and love it. One of my favorite parts of Fall is watching K and Tim play soccer. Today was an action packed day traveling from one soccer field to the next, but luckily my sister was able to join. She stayed for the weekend and tagged along to cheer Tim on. I love having my sister over and especially when it involves fun family activities. Luckily, I brought my DSLR to the field today and captured some awesome shots from today's game... go #

Camping Trip
For the start of Labor Day weekend, Tim, arranged a camping trip up at Hickory Run State Park. This is the second consecutive year we head there to close out the summer with a group of close friends. It's nice to know we've started this tradition with the intention of some camp fires, good laughs, and awesome memories. On our way up to the campsite we caught glance of this classic car. I immediately grabbed my camera and snapped this shot. Over the week we purchased a DXO 1 a

Date Night
For this week's date night Tim wanted to plan it all out. He's had his eye out on a cute, trendy cafe in Hopewell that he's been wanting to take me to for some time now. The minute we arrived to Brick Farm Market I thought how beautiful it all was! The cafe had a mix of modern chic country feel to it. The brick walls, fresh fruits and veggies was pure happiness to my eyes. My favorite part of location were the details. Each table had fresh cut blue hydrangeas, the colorful me

Dare to be BOLD!
Alright everyone, this post is going to be a bit of a story, and so critical as to why I'm blogging about being BOLD! I promise I condensed as much as possible while keeping the tone of the story true. So sit back and enjoy! :) In 2011 I was accepted into Brigham Young University - Idaho. As a senior in high school while many of my peers where staying local, I dreamt of starting my life out west. I had a feeling that Idaho was going to be the place where I learned who I was,

Life Currently
Hey there! My name is Madeline, and here I am giving the cyber world a shot. I've been wanting to start up a blog for quite sometime now, but didn't have the courage to do so. Luckily, my wonderful husband pushed me enough to create one on our weekend getaway to New Hope, PA. So, watch out world- Madi has come to reveal it all! Currently, I am just barely waking up (9am ish) on a beautiful, comfy bed in the outskirts of New Hope. My husband is getting ready to work out, and I
