7 years and counting…

… 7 years ago today I found the love of my life.  I can’t believe how long we’ve been together, because it seems like just a few years have passed.  We’ve already done so much together, I can hardly believe it!  We met while attending The University of Denver (DU) and instantly became inseparable and it’s amazing what you can accomplish in 7 years with the support of someone else.  We lived together for 4 months in Florence, Italy while Studying Abroad and that gave us the opportunity to travel all over Europe!  We went all over Italy to places like, Perugia, Assisi, Rome, Venice, and The Vatican.  We also got to cliff jump, bungee jump and snowboard in the Swiss Alps!  Switzerland reminded us so much of home because of the snow capped mountains.  We felt right at home.  We also made it to Paris, France; London, England; and Shannon, Ireland!  We’ve also been to Mexico a few times together and spent our Honeymoon on the warm beaches of Jamaica.

In addition to all of our traveling, we both have found time to start our own businesses.  Ron started Feed The Bull a few years ago to share what’s hot in the Stock Market.  It’s a great community site where anyone can join in and read articles, post articles and vote on articles.  It really keeps you up-to-date on the Stock Market and other companies.  I’m so proud of him!  Then in 2007, as you already know, I started Chickiedee.  I love to sew, craft, draw, paint and just plain create, so this was a natural step for me.

Right now life is sweet.  We have our home, health, two dogs and our cat.  Soon we will expand our little family and eventually have children, but until then, I’m happy to have my hubby by my side.

{studio sunday} Kellie Coughlin | Photographer

I am so excited for this weeks {studio sunday} feature for two reasons: a) It’s Easter and b) Kellie Coughlin was the photographer that helped me give my husband the best one-year wedding anniversary gift ever!  With the help of make-up artist, Kaytelyn Simkins, they transformed me into a pin-up and we created a pin-up calendar for Ron.  The make-up and photos came out better than you could have imagined!  Kellie is an amazingly talented photographer with an eye for excellence.  She’s ridiculously kind and fun to work with, so I would recommend her to anyone, and she does it all.  She captures weddings, boudoir, head shots, maternity, and lifestyle moments.  Kellie’s studio is located in Denver, CO and I highly recommend that you contact her for your next big moment!  Below the beautiful images of Kellie’s studio are a few questions and answers… enjoy!
