Thank goodness that last week is over…or rather, thank God for the start of a new week. Many of you know that I design and develop custom training as part of my day job. If anyone should be a fan of “training,” it should be me. Although I certainly learned a lot about how to run a business (so what if it wasn’t a photography business – the information was incredibly helpful), I also learned that I might be the world’s worst training participant – okay, that’s a huge exaggeration, but I am definitely glad it’s over.I missed blogging…I...

Hi, my name is Ashley and I’m a stretch-aholic. Let me explain. For the past few weeks, I’ve said that my photos are a stretch. Stretch or not, I’ve been a little busy between my day job and life…therefore, I haven’t been as intentional about what I’m photographing for the scavenger hunt.

It should come as no surprise that I am still processing my European vacation photos. In fact, I’m completely breaking my own Scavenger Hunt rules for another week considering I haven’t picked up my camera since the portrait session I previewed yesterday. On top of that…it’s been raining. Autumn is definitely my favorite season, but I could do without the rain…just bring on the fall colors!Either way, if you’ve been participating in the Scavenger Hunt each week, I hope this week’s items inspired you (or challenged you – they certainly challenged...
