Dana- Summer Themed Photoshoot

** All photos belong to me and therefore may not be used or downloaded without my permission**

Last week I had a photo-shoot with a friend of mine, which I had been planning for about a month. My desired "theme" was just Flower Crown. So I got on Pinterest and what do you know... there was an abundance of DIY flower crown tutorials. 

So I went to the dollar store, bought some stuff, had my sister help me, and made a flower crown.

From which, this photo-shoot came.

Makeup was done by yours truly. 

Hair was a combined effort between Dana and myself.

I thought the flower crown turned out well.

{Pinterest} What I'm Loving- June

What I'm Loving

Bubble Necklaces

They dress up the simplest outfit and add such a stylish effect to any look.

Scarf Camera Straps

They are SO much cuter than your average black camera strap, I need to find a DIY and make one!

Copper Ombre

I've loved the ombre trend since it started, but I have to say, this copper ombre that I discovered is the icing on the cake of ombres. I'm in love, and have been seriously considering dying my hair.

What are you loving this month?

Catching Up- Q&A

So a follower left some question for me this week, and because I have been a bit absent lately, I thought I'd update ya'll! (Thanks Emily for the questions)

What can we be praying for for your China trip?
Well, you can pray for the last $350 I need to raise by June 16th. Then you can pray for my travel and safety, of course! Also that I would be able to emotionally handle leaving when the trip is over. I had a very difficult time leaving a child in Haiti last year and I am feeling that I am going to get attached to a child at Maria's. (Not a bad thing, just hard for me)
What camera gear & editing software do you use?
Currently I am taking pictures with a Nikon D5000, and editing with Photoshop Elements 11.
What is on your wish list for photography gear?
Well I would love to have my own camera. (The camera I use is my Dads) As for a camera body I really want a Canon Rebel T3i and a Canon EF 85mm f/1.8 USM lens. Also I'd like Photoshop Lightroom.
What is up with Ally these days?
Not much. She is almost done with her math this year, so we can all say HALLELUJAH! 
How are Aaron and Tiffany doing in Guam?
Good I think! Tiffany joined Aaron in Guam a couple of weeks ago and they bought a house.
Would you rather be a giant mouse or a tiny elephant?
Tiny Elephant, definitely! Mice are gross. 
Green pears or the brownish kind?
Green? I'm not a big pear person.
What are you looking forward to for jr. year?
Being closer to senior year!! But seriously, I'm not sure.

Any college plans yet?
I have had college plans since I was about 6! I'm not sure where I want to go yet, but I want to study nursing and become an RN and get a BSN. (Bachelor of Science in Nursing)

Dogs or cats?
Cats! I can't stand barking!!!
Do spiders terrify you?
That depends on their size and how creepy they look. So, most of the time, yes. #baby

If you ya'll like Q&As leave some questions. Maybe I'll do another one!
