Raspberry Butter Cookies

These are my absolute favorite holiday cookies! Not only do they remind me that the holidays are around the corner but the taste brings back years of fond memories. My mom has been making these cookies for years and now I finally put my apron on and gave it a try...and I must say they are delicious! Like mother, like daughter I suppose... Directions below. Enjoy! 

I added powdered sugar on top for presentation and left out the walnuts (moms allergic.) Now someone come help me eat these so I don't eat the whole plate myself!

Holiday Styled Shoot

I previously posted a "sneak peak" post about a Holiday Styled shoot I participated in about a month ago. However, the professional photos have now come back and they are beyond amazing! This styled shoot was particularly inspiring because each vendor involved is a self started small company or business. By pulling all of our individual talents together the product turned out beautifully.  A special thanks to Charlotte Jarrett an extremely talented event planner and the brains behind the whole idea. She was responsible for bringing all the vendors together as well as designing the multiple sets seen in the photos below. I would also like to highlight and credit all photography to Travis Curry. Details on all vendors will be listed at the bottom. I hope these pictures inspire you to get into the holiday spirit; and remember to be fabulous!
