Sneak-A-Roos of the W Wedding!

Meet Mr. & Mrs. W! I photographed their wedding August 15, 2009 in San Angelo, Texas! Let me warn you these 2 are good looking folks with a whole bunch of fun, spunky people that love & surround them! My word for this wedding is TEAMWORK. I have never seen friends, family, and even the Bride & groom pull together to get the job done & WITH SMILES the whole time. These two are so meant for one another & make a FABULOUS team. They are best friends, united soul mates & have a blessed group of family & friends that love them & encourage them the whole way through life. I can't wait to show more beautiful pictures....my biggest problem with this wedding is THERE ARE TOO MANY GOOD PICTURES! This might be the biggest sneak-a-roo in ANOZIRA BLOG HISTORY because I just can't decide on my favorites, I am fond of so many! Plus, let's face it my camera loved these two!
Mr. & Mrs. W, I admire your love & support of one another... thank you both for being an absolute delight to photograph. Your wedding was so easy to photograph because your love for one another makes you glow with beauty! I know i'm getting a little sappy but gee-golly i'm so excited for you two! Thank you for choosing me to capture your big day, it was truly an honor! I wish you only the best! I know you two will make it, you make such a great team & have blessings surrounding & rooting for you in the form of sweet family & friends! CHEERS TO YOU!

Unknowingly Blessed & My Bucket List...

I have come to realize lately I have a whole lot of unknowns in my life. These unknowns scare the b-jeezies out of me sometimes, but mostly they make me humble & stronger & down right thankful for what I have. This summer has been the scariest, busiest, and weirdest summers I have experienced in a long time. Lots of loved ones left my family or families around me to be with their Heavenly father. Lots of yuckiness also made its way into my family & families around me, yet I have had this peace of knowing that somehow, someway, with God's favor everything is going to be alright. I know this peace is a big result of all the love, happiness, encouragement, help and prayers that have been sent towards and upwards for us all, which all the thank yous within me wouldn't even begin to express my gratitude. Man I'm such a firm believer in the power of the human spirit, but not until this summer have I truly seen THE power of the human spirit. My world for the first time in a long time has been completely turned upside down. My pride has been popped, my heart has been punched, and my faith has been tested like something you see in the movies. Yet, I can't complain because I know it could be so much worse. I guess this is part of that POST GRAD stuff people talk about. The stuff where just when you think you have it all figured out, you get slapped in the face with no job, no money, and packing your bags to head back home until you figure it all out. Yup, that's what happened to this here lady. Let me tell you, job hunting is not as fun as they make it look like in the movies, but it's real & it's all about finding yourself right? Finding out who you are, where you belong, what you have to offer this world. AND by golly counting the blessings right in front of you. I may have grown bigger than my small hometown, or think I have, but man am I thankful for it & the family & friends that it has that have their arms wide open welcoming & encouraging me and never losing faith in me! I have been humbled, to say the least, in these last few months. I feel like I'm starting from scratch, back to square one, I hate and love it all at the same time. For the first time in a long time, I have no clue where I am headed....if you would have asked me a month ago I probably would have had a panic attack talking about it, but today I'm humbled, happy, thankful, and excited to see where I'll be this time next year.

Lately, as I've stepped back and re-evaluated my life I have had this huge burning desire to start a BUCKET LIST. Anyone have one of these started? Things you write down that you want to do before you turn a certain age or before you leave this earth and cross off as you do them. If you have one & don't mind sharing I WOULD LOVE to HEAR your list, mine is a work in progress, just like my life haha! HOWEVER...So far, I have travel the world....what parts of the world? UNKNOWN. Also I have CHANGE MY LIFE....what part of my life? UNKNOWN. Like I said, lots of unknowns in my life, but good ones.

My life may not be perfect, but who's is? It's tough, rough, and one heck of a ride, but with some good people alongside you it's so worth it isn't it?

Now, I promised I would share my new pup Jimi Hendrix with my blog friends! OH JIMI... he is a mess & definitely one of those unknowns in my life, but an unknown that keeps us all on our toes, entertained, & lets face it homeboy is just dadgum CUTE! HAHA!

....don't let that cuteness fool you into giving him table scraps or a nap on the bed though PLEASE! lol ain't puppy training fun? all tips & suggestions are also welcomed ;)

This is Jimi helping me pack up the apartment?

Here Jimi is showing his rocker side & practicing his KISS tongue...lol

May you all have great food, family, furry & people friends to get you through the good, bad, & the ugly! Life is so much better with people to laugh at it with! :)
XOXO,

Meet Beautiful Bride Ana...

Hello world! I know Anozira has fallen off the blogger train for a while but THE GIRLS ARE BACK IN TOWN! :) I personally have so much to share. Just recently I photographed two weddings and have one on the way to do. I can't wait to share all the cute, fun, beautiful details of them but for right now I'm FINALLY sharing these beautiful bridals I took of Ana back in June. I have been itching to share them for so long because she is just down right beautiful in her white dress. I also captured her walking down the isle Friday, August 21, 2009 in her sexy white dress.

Some history... Ana is a friend I made while at the cute little university Texas Woman's. We had so much fun on her bridal shoot. She had her wonderful sisters and good friend come help out & boy did they! We laughed way too much, sweated our hearts out, fought off a pile of ants, and you know what?...ANA NEVER COMPLAINED! She is far from a bridezilla. Seriously, I think I complained more than she did about the ants & hot sun. I guess what I'm trying to say is Ana thank you for being a complete delight to photograph. I'm so happy for you & so honored that you chose me to capture your big day...I wish you & Mr. C only the best...now I'll let the pictures tell the rest! :) (*Rhyming intended HA!*)

Can't you just see her sweet spirit in this picture?

Natural beauty....

Seriously, it was hard to pick my favorites...hence the collage! :)

Some vogue if you will...

The bottom left photo still takes my breath away....SO PRETTY!

Stay tuned folks...lots of sneak-a-roos, photos, pictures of my new pup and updates coming your way!

XOXO,

Laura Loo

Aerosmith sneak-a-roos...VLOG style!

Better late than never right!? Well, we are finally flipping through our pictures and videos from the Aerosmith concert & figured we share some videos...this makes our very first video blog...haha hopefully not our last! We warn you...for some reason we both get crazy accents & the sillys in front of the camera. Seriously, even when we were little. Our moms have videos of us pretending to be the Spice Girls, fighting, & other childhood memories that make us cringe when watching because we sound so funny...kind of like these videos but, WE LOVE YALL & said we would share our fun day! So here are the videos we recorded on our way to see Aerosmith July 19th, the weekend that came & went way too fast! We hope this post finds you all doing well & soaking up all that summer has left...stay tuned.

Haha, you should have seen us running from Loo's apartment & packing up the Hester mobile in the rain...here we are safe in the car heading to Dallas!

Of course we are late, but at least our eye make up looks like da bomb.com! haha!

You had fair warning....if you could understand us hope you enjoyed those silly videos...MORE TO COME & of course pictures!

p.s Laura would like to add that she GOT A PUPPY! You will being seeing lots of him, so no worries!

xoxo,

Anozira
