LOVING Tea Cup Tea, a blog chronicling the exciting food and travel adventures of photographer Leela Cyd. I happened across them today and haven’t been able to stop daydreaming about a vacation to Europe. Her pictures are so beautiful!

You may recognize her name…she is our go-to photographer for all things Ruby Press- and the Davis family for that matter! You’ve seen her work if you’ve seen photos from Sammy’s first birthday, the ten year anniversary ‘Carnival of Sweets’ bash we created Viv&Ingrid or the intimate dinner party we produced for Cole Haan. {To name just a few!}
Kristen just launched a gorgeous new website and blog featuring her wedding and event photography- check it out here!
Have you checked out the premiere issue of Reverie magazine yet? It’s based in the UK, but they feature US weddings as well. The photography and featured weddings are insanely gorgeous! Yet another magazine to add to my reading list…
There are two very simple things in this world that truly make me happy- Polaroid photography (it’s instant, it’s unique, it’s nostalgic, it’s awesome) and receiving little “somethings” in the mail (who doesn’t love snail mail?). My two loves have become one with the creation of “Pretty Polaroid Notes” – a collection of 20 different notecards and envelopes. Featuring the work of Jenifer Altman, the photography is soft, sweet, and yes, pretty. Who wouldn’t love opening their mailbox to find a handwritten note from a loved one on these little beauties?
It’s true, I’m in love…with an app. I have found my soul mate in the form of Red Giant’s photography application, ‘Plastic Bullet’. I’m what some might call a ‘photography snob’, so the fact that I’m literally borderline obsessed with this application speaks volumes!
Emulating the crazy beautiful prints produced by plastic Toy Cameras (Holga, LOMO, etc.), Plastic Bullet creates amazingly unique artwork out of any ordinary snapshot. Complete with light-leaks, over- exposures, and stunning color tints, the Plastic Bullet application transforms images from mediocre to something you would expect to see hanging in a gallery. The best part about it? You don’t do any work at all! The application edits your images and produces endless prints for you to choose from. For only $1.99, the Plastic Bullet application is beyond worth it.

Why do I love cows so much? Little Daisy is killing me with those big soft eyes and speckly nose! {Daisy can be yours- it’s one of the many gorgeous photos for sale from Lonny Magazine, and shot by the talented Patrick Cline.}
I have always been more of a city mouse than country mouse, but these hauntingly gorgeous shots of farm life in Kansas make me think twice… {See the whole set here on From Me to You, an incredible photography blog.}
1…2…3…say cheese! These whimsical Smitten Sticks from the creative minds of Edyta Szyszlo and Vana Chupp bring a whole new meaning to the phrase “smile for the camera”…

Sophie Richards has a knack for turning hanging sessions with her friends into impromptu photoshoots. My favorites though are the photographs where she focuses on just one subject, like this transposed trio.

If anyone is scrambling to buy a VERY last-minute Christmas gift, allow me point you in the right direction. I’ve been dying to check out photographer Lauren Dukoff’s book Family since it released a few months ago. It features candid yet striking shots of musicians Devendra Banhart, Joanna Newsom, Entrance, Bat for Lashes, Vetiver, and many more–an incredibly creative “family” of folks that are pretty stylish both on and off the stage.
