ABOUT US

 

i'm sarah-  a wedding photographer, dog stylist, amateur wanna-be chef and now, writer of this blog. i live for cuddly moments with my family, dog walks, hot yoga, traveling, and incredible food.  i believe the secret to a good life is laughing hard and often.  preferrably at yourself.

this is lou. if you ask my opinion, he's a total fox. he shoots editorial and advertising photography, plays tennis, drinks sazeracs, and keeps my head on straight, professionally.  he's my rock and i love him to the ends of the galaxy and back.

this is ruca bean yates-mora, but mostly we call her bean.  she has more personality than a large part of the population, and she's been that way since the second we met her.  she's a surprising mix of dog supermodel and fierce backyard wildlife hunter.  to know her is to love her. 

this is eleanor, but she goes by nugget.  our friend michael found her under his car and i chased her down the street, borrowed a rope from a kind stranger, and brought her home.  her former life was full of neglect and abuse but she's taken to the good life like she was meant for it and never knew anything else.  

we hope you enjoy the hijinx of our family.  please, make yourself at home!
