I am alive...More than ever

No apologies here. I've been busy making my dreams and passions come true. This year has been beyond anything i expected. Par for the course when it comes to things you ask from God. Thanks, God!

So since i last posted something on here i quit my job and started a new fabulous one working for these guys. AMAZING. These past few weeks have been awesome. And.... this week is going to be even better!!!! But ill share that with you on thursday. Its a lovely surprise.

My office of 3 years. Good-bye J&L!!!

Heres some films geoff and myself have made recently. watch. enjoy. and please, share your thoughts.





Talk to you soon,
Mrs.B

Going, going, gone.

:(

well, he said "please"

Geoff sent me this email he got a work:

He probably gets one of those a week. Maybe i should feature them more. haha

Business Boneyard

I went to a office furniture liquidation store to buy a new desk chair and saw this... At first i was excited for the deals and what buried treasure i could find and then, after going down isle after isle, i felt depressed knowing that whatever i was looking at was in someones business that had to close down.

Two giant warehouse filled with office furniture and supplies of businesses that had closed down. It was humbling to say the least.

inspired

not by just the film but the people in it.



choked up watching this.

Geoff + June

We borrowed South Hill's lighting kit last night for a shoot and wanted to test it out. This is what i got:

staring at angels 90% of the time

she hates being the little spoon

caught again!

this is her Ramona from NY Housewives impression

she lives for the high-fives

i love my bitches

welcome back to monday

Of course my natural reaction was: huh, my banana is bleeding?

matchies v2.0

Ive always been told i look familiar to people, and not just from creepy dudes. I guess i have a pretty common face...

 One of these is not me:

Facebook's ads are getting really good

And this was just text'd to me from Myra. Meet her new friend, my long lost twin:

Im the one on the right in case you couldnt tell.

cool guy

I love it when Geoff tries to act like rico suave while doing things.

And then he smacks the squeegee into the car antenna and it bounces the squeegee into his chest

and loses all cool guy composure.

Love it.

Christmas List

I know receiving presents isn't the true meaning of Christmas. But it happens.
I like to think of myself as a practical person in general. Here's whats on my practical Christmas (and in general) gift wish list:

Cake Plates!
Ive made a few from what i could find from thrift shops but i cant help but swoon a little bit when i see genuine vintage milk glass cake platter. I just cant fathom spending $40+ on a used old one. So appreciate them from afar. I do bake enough to where these would get a lot of good use out them... practical. 



Camera Lenses!
A Canon 35mm 1.4 L and 70-200 2.8 L, to be exact. When we film i notice i lean toward the 35mm more than any other lens. And when we are shooting from far, and i need to get up in your grill, the 70-200mm is our go to. Both are a necessity for our company that we currently rent because they are so expensive. Practical.


A Standing Garden Bed!
Sure, i could bend down but that would strain my back. Strap some legs to that garden bed and lets grow our own food without worrying about the dog and gophers invading. Practical!



Shoes! 
Im too embarrassed to share with you how bad my current shoes look. My converse, toms and mock moccasins souls are falling out and have holes in the toes. Now i'm not all about overpriced, hipster shoes but they are so comfortable to me. I'm a creature of comfort and i don't care. Practical.


iPhone 4 to go to Verizon!
PRACTICAL! 


Macbook Pro 17"!
We want to replace our laptop with the newer Macbook Pro that way we both can be editing at the same time, in separate rooms, on location or while watching TV in the living room. Totally Practical.


Amish Heater!
Our living room is a addition to the house so it doesn't have a/c or heating vents running through it making it the extreme weather room. We don't have a fireplace in our house either and i miss it so much. What could solve both of these issues? THIS. They even make them with DVD shelves and come in black. Hello new TV stand. Plus i think this will hold June's attention longer than her shadow and keep her from staring attentively at nothing with me telling myself shes just looking at angels. Practical.


And what's at the top of my list...

June becoming a dog lover!
Let me clarify, June loves small dogs. Proof: This picture. This time last year my friend Amanda had her dog live with me and June for about 3weeks and June loved Rico. Its just June doesnt realize how big she is and plays too rough with them and i have to watch her like a hawk. Now, with that said, June HATES dogs her size and larger. Like she turns into Cujo. We have no idea why and i've tried contacting the dog whisperer but he didnt get back to me. We really want to have more dogs but we wont while June is still around and still misbehaves around other dogs. Shes lucky shes so dang cute. EXTREME PRACTICAL.
