Brunch & A Photoshoot

A couple of weeks ago, I got a message from Katie of Hot Tea & the Empty Seat saying that she and her husband, Joe, would be visiting Joe's family in nearby Lancaster, PA.  Katie and I made plans to have brunch at the Tomcat Cafe and bring our cameras for a photoshoot afterward!  I love meeting up with fellow bloggers...it's always so great to sit down face-to-face with someone that you've gotten to know through the screen and take that friendship into real life!

We met up on a Friday morning and had the best French Toast around (mine was stuffed with cheesecake and crusted in vanilla cookies and then topped with fresh strawberries, a berry drizzle, and whipped cream) and then headed up to the old Wernersville train station to snap a few photos of one another!

Because we're both photographers (find Katie here and me here), we rarely get to get in front of the camera, unless we're taking self portraits (and friends, using the trunk of your car and a remote to take pics of yourself isn't always the most fun photoshoot!).  So it was super fun to get creative and take turns on the other side of the lens!  Taking photos of another photographer is always the best.  There's nothing better than having a subject who will let you experiment and get creative, and who just gets it.  I love it!

So enjoy these photos of me (taken by Katie) and Katie (taken by yours truly...she's so photogenic!), and make some plans to meet up with a blogging friend soon!
