So happy it’s Fri-YAY since my husband and I are going to see Lady Gaga x Tony Bennett tonight (yes, I’m dragging my hubs along!). We are one of the lucky ones that were able to get tickets to Ravinia, so you can probably understand my EXCITEMENT.

Anyhow, this photo-shoot was probably my most favorite ever because I was able to goof around a bit. Believe it or not, I always feel a bit awkward taking pictures of me but my husband is so good when it comes to directions and/or angles. Together we make an awesome, both professional and personal, team. So blessed to have this man by my side. As for my clothes, I’m leaning towards black and minimalism again. Which reminds me a whole lot of my high school and college days back in Europe. I wore almost always black and white. What do you think of this look?! Do tell by commenting below!

As always, thanks much for reading & have a fabulous weekend!

    I love this photo shoot too! It is so cute with the floppy hat and sunnies plus that top. Basically everything about this outfit 🙂 I just got a boat hat and I can’t wait to wear it with everything! Your post has made me want it even more. Anyway, have a great time at Lady Gaga-it sounds amazing! Can’t wait to hear about it 🙂

    The top is my favorite, it has a simple but beautiful print. Not so sure about the pants/culottes though.
    It’s so much easier when your loved one takes pics of you on a daily basis….especially on a professional level cause they know your weaknesses and strengths on a personal note. Very few bloggers have this opportunity and that makes you really lucky.

    I was going to comment on how playful this shoot is, I can see why you mentioned it too. Your outfit is classic, yet fun and you look so happy.
    I like how this post is more personal. Your husband is an awesome photographer. My husband takes my photos too. It’s nice to have the help/support.
