Meet Ella.
Short for Elegant.
JK!
(But can that word play get a Ella yeah? ;) )

I’ve kind of loved everything about meeting + connecting + photographing Carrie and Mitch.

For starters, our mutual friend…

Does this mean the Class of 2006 is growing up now that holiday cards are mega exciting?? (Sidenote: I’m still using that #whenbhsgrowsup tag in the blog, and I kind of adore it. Have a click through, fellow bears.) Anyway. Probably YES.

Maybe it's because it's December 1st today. 
Perhaps the "winter scented" candle I've got burning next to me also has something to do with it. 
But I haven't really felt the holiday holidazzle until just now.
