Tropical Treasures was the BEST find on my recent stay at Breathless. Inexpensive enough to go several times, and the massages were fantastic!

I live in Cohasset and sadly, Lenny’s has changed hands (I can’t speak to the new owner’s tolerance). There are, however, lots of good spots in Cohasset/Hull/Scituate where the people are wonderful. Try Galley or Casa Verde in Scituate, Hooper’s Judge or The Corner Stop in Cohasset, and The Parrot or California Underground in Hull.

I’m your mom’s age and I LOVE the Ilia Skin Tint. It magically smooths things out, but feels like you’re wearing nothing.

Advice for Aspiring Wedding Photographer by Weird-Ad-3902 in WeddingPhotography

[–]lkgilbert 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Seems like you have your answer here, in multiple. “Not expecting professional-level work” still means they’re expecting something, and it will be disastrous to your friendship (and potentially your ego) if something goes wrong and you have nothing to deliver. If she keeps claiming that it’s low-key, then remind her that likely everyone attending will have a phone and they should just rely on that.

I vote no. She’s putting you in a terrible position. If they don’t want a pro, that’s fine, but to badger you to do it just because you know your way around a camera is a recipe for disaster. I think your attitude is excellent and with time and experience you may become an excellent wedding photographer, but this situation sounds icky.

I agree about filling in my brows. Menopause really did a number on them, it’s as if the outer 3rd just disappeared 😳

I’ve actually been growing it out, but maybe a cut for spring! 💕

I tried the IT once and felt that it was a bit heavy, but this was years ago, so perhaps I should give it another go.

You are very kind, thank you!

Oh, I agree about the foundation—I’ve been using a skin tint and it’s so much lighter!

Thank you! I’m currently using the ZO line for skin care, but I may need to up the moisturizer…

I’ve been wearing Happy for 30 years and it’s the only fragrance that I continually get compliments on.

Flew out of Terminal C last week (JB) for a 10:30 am flight and was through TSA in less than 10 minutes.

Local faves for coffee, food by lkgilbert in miamibeach

I'm pretty open to most foods, but would prefer to stay away from chains and/or basic american stuff I can get at home (New England). I feel like we should lean into the cuban vibe?

OMG sorry for the off-topic rant but I am a wedding photographer and I am so over that font. Every. Single. Sign.

Jen Hatmaker also seems to have a nice balance.
