2016 was by far the craziest year of my life. There were so many new friendships, new jobs, new travels, new loves, new dislikes, major life changes - and most importantly, so much self growth. And I mean self growth in my business and self growth in my personal life. I couldn't be more grateful for the year I've had. I am thankful for the good days and the bad days and everything in between. Enough chit chat though! Let's take a look at 2016 in what I do best - photos. (ps. they're in no particular order. I don't have the patience for that, hehe).
I drank A LOT OF COFFEE. And took a lot of pictures of coffee...Like, a lot.

We should also talk about how I met my best friend in 2016. February was life changing.
We even went to NYC over the summer!
Bottom line - LOVE THIS LADY!
I also spent time in NYC with one of my best friends, Sarah, after she got back from Japan! @sarahratner
Told you I made some new friends..
I made some ACTUAL amazing friends though, like Maeve, (@maevestier) the babe behind: http://chicnowblog.com !!
FINALLLLLY met one of my favorite people on the planet, @willburklo
Met the ridiculously hilarious @sarah.brookhart and had endless coffee dates & editing parties.
Became friends instantly with this beautiful lady!

Spent endless hours eating salad and drinking coffee with my love, Emma (http://emmaweissphotos.com)
It's hard to put into words how much this girl means to me.
But I love you @emmaweissphoto to the moon & back 5002823975927 times.
AND THEN I got to meet the stunning Katy Bellotte and photograph her for the cover of Local Wolves magazine.
We've had a few coffee dates since then ;) @hellokatyxo
I got to know the ever so beautiful Abbey Ford better, too!
And then Abbey styled an incredible shoot and asked me to shoot it (SO THANKFUL)!
Hung out with @nickmarfing & @coryhammons a year later...heheh.
Also got a stellar six pack from laughing so hard constantly with @mrlukewright
Aaaaand then I drank more coffee.
Did some traveling too for weddings & "work." Is it really work when you love it?
Dallas, Texas.
Upstate, NY.
Middle of nowhere, WV.
Charleston, SC.
Norfolk, VA.
I ATE SO MUCH BOMB FOOD TOO. DON'T FORGET THE FOOD. (mostly donuts)
One of my favorite parts of 2016 was falling in love with DC after living so close (and strongly disliking it) for the past 20 years.
Anddddd let's not forget all the amazing couples I got the honor of hanging out with on the best day of their lives. I could not be more grateful.
As if I haven't said it 1000 trillion times... 2016 was kickass. I am stoked for 2017.
