Back in April, I had the privilege of snapping some photos at Josh and Macy Morrow's adorable wedding, alongside the brilliant, Ruth Reese. The couple was married on a farm outside of Amarillo, Texas and the day was simply beautiful.
Here are a few of my favorite shots from the day. (edited by Ruth Reese)
Macy and Josh, I feel so lucky to have had the opportunity to capture your love through your engagement shoot, to share your insanely creative and sweet wedding day with you, and finally to spend a day shooting bridals for you, Macy. More importantly, Michael and I both feel lucky to share a friendship with such an indcredible couple. You two are stunning, made for the magazines. You have such a sweet, simple, and complete love that is admired by many. Your sweet spirit and love for the world around you is contagious. I wish you many, many years of true joy together.
These are a few of my photos taken at another wedding I shot last summer with Ruth Reese Photography. Jordan and Taylor's wedding took place at a beautiful location outside of Tulsa on June 25, 2011.
The insanely creative (and not to mention - STUNNING) bride, Taylor handmade many elements of her wedding... It was all so well done! Even down to the tiniest of details, there was an immense amount of thought given to each aspect of the day. Both of the families were so sweet and the love that was shared among everyone was very apparent.
I am shooting my first wedding video today with Michael! I am very excited to be his second videographer and I can't wait to share the final product!
With love,
Meredith
A couple of weeks ago, Michael and I had the opportunity to spend our Sunday afternoon hanging out with Josh and Macy while shooting some romantic photos for their engagement. We had such a good time and so enjoyed getting to experience the sweet love shared between them. Here are some of my favorite photos I shot that day.photo above taken by Michael Rowley

How gorgeous is Macy?? I mean, seriously! These two were such an easy couple to photograph and their love was captured in such a sweet way. Josh and Macy, you are truly a beautiful and inspiring couple, thank you so much for giving us the chance to photograph you. I cannot wait to be a part of your wedding day.
All my love,
Meredith
It seems the trick of the century (and common talk among my girlfriends lately) is the balance between dressing "professional" for work and still maintaining personal style. I, myself struggle with this fine balancing act and hope to provide some tips on the topic!
This morning I had an interview with a non-profit organization and here is what I wore!
I think incorporating color is a great way to maintain personal style without dressing an outfit down too much. Accessories are also a great easy option to make an outfit personal to your style and taste. Blazers are not a common item in my personal wardrobe, but I do have a few and they are certainly go-to pieces when I'm hoping to achieve a professional look. I often choose not to tuck in my top (shock!), which feels risky but works in combination with the structured blazer and slim pants. Despite popular belief, skinny pants can be incorporated into professional-ware if executed properly, like mixing with jackets or cardigans. Fabric is also key when searching for pants to fit work attire. The ones I am wearing are a stretchy polyester so they appear a bit thicker and also have a seam down the front which adds a more sophisticated and tailored look. Of course, wedges or heels always dress up a look and complete the outfit!

Good luck creating fun professional outfits for work that still display your personal style!!

I am very excited to have completed my first annual goal post! Inspired by A Beautiful Mess and Hula Seventy, I decided to create a list of thoughtful goals that I want to accomplish this year, before my 24th birthday (January 20, 2013). I am already hard at work on completing a few of these goals and fully expect that I will remain plenty inspired by the others.
The idea is to encourage myself to remain inspired and creatively active all year long! Maybe you should make your own list of goals to complete before your next birthday? Fun, fun, fun!
my love,
Meredith
One of my dear friends, Ruth Reese is a professional photographer and owns her own photography business based out of Tulsa, OK. Last year, I had the great privilege of second shooting on many weddings with Ruth (more on that later).
Back in October, we shot a wedding at a beautiful home outside of Tulsa, OK. Aubrey and Ciara, possibly the most photogenic couple of all time, are an adorable couple who dated for 7 years (gasp!) before finally, I mean finally, tieing the knot in front of their sweet family and friends. Here are some of my favorite shots from the day, I hope you enjoy!
I can't wait to share more wedding photos from last summer!
My love,
Meredith
Here are a few shots from another wedding I shot with Ruth Reese Photography. The venue was breathtaking, a place called "The Barn" in Tulsa.
This last photo was featured in an Oklahoma Wedding magazine showcasing the florist. Very cool!
The fun loving, southern couple was so wonderful to meet and they certainly knew how to throw a good party!
My love,
Meredith
