{Vintage Inspiration} Mom & Pop favorites…

One of the things I enjoy the most about writing, For the Love of Books, for La Petite Magazine is taking the photos to go along with the article. Honestly, I take the photos before I write- I’m a visual person. This last issue’s theme was “vintage surf” &  I knew right away that I wanted to include those little striped swim trunks in the shoot. Believe it or not, they were Chris’ favorite swim trunks when he was around Sayer’s age. I couldn’t believe that he still had them! Once I found that Snoopy surfing book, I knew that one of my favorite childhood items needed to be included as well- my plush Snoopy. I loved including these tidbits of nostalgia in my book feature & wanted wanted to share. These are a few of my favorite outtakes from the shoot. I only wish I had a photo of mini Chris in these swim trunks now.

{La Petite Magazine} Issue #7 …

The new La Petite Magazine (issue #7) just came out – just in time to cozy up this weekend & browse through the pages of dreamy, beachy goodness. What a perfect issue to get lost in as the wind blows & rain pours outside my window. It’s a nice reminder that Spring just might in fact be around the corner. 
My, “For the Love of Books” article is on pages 148-50 & it’s full of both nostalgic favorites & new book discoveries. I’m such a sucker for the water & the beach so this issue was extra fun to contribute too. So head on over to La Petite Magazine to be inspired & transported- there are so many wonderful contributions & features! You may even smell salt water in the air as you read…
