Wow! Molly, Lindsay, and I had a blast with Lisa and her girls! Check out some of her amazing photos that Vivian of Sapphire Studio shared with us!

Surprise Party!!!

Planning a wedding is really a ton of work! After planning my own 3 years ago, I knew exactly what we needed for Jan's surprise birthday/retirement party!!!! My mother in law totally deserved a great party! My husband and I decided Mathew's 1600 in Catonsville was the perfect place. Enjoy some of our personal photos from the party! Thanks to all those vendors who contributed to the success! All photos are copyright of Balance Photography!!!

DJ Vega and DJ Absolute of Beat 2 Beat DJs did a great job at keeping the dance floor packed all night!!!

The food and drinks were amazing at Matthews!!! Stop in and have dinner if you are in the area. They are neighbors to our new studio in Catonsville!!!

Laurie of Ann's Gardens created gorgeous centerpieces for the tables!

Margie of Artistic Cake Creations did an amazing job on the bright and colorful cake!!! It tasted as good as it looked!!!

Just incase my hair skills fall through I can always rely on my photography skills.....yeah right....I'm lucky I didn't drop this pretty camera! Good thing Ris and Nathaniel trust me.

Woo Hoo

Career Day At Elkridge Landing Middle School

I was honored to be asked to come speak and present to a middle school class. We rotated every half hour and I told 6 different classes about what I do!!! My favorite conversation:

Middle School Student: "Are you allowed to chew gum when you are working?"

Me: "Sure, but as long as it is kept professional."

Middle School Student: " What happens if you drop it in their hair?"

Me: "I've honestly never thought about that situation but I will be considering using mints instead." Haha..

I had a total blast and here are some of the Thank You notes I received!!!

Incase you can't read this bottom one, it reads:

" Thank You Ashley for coming out and spending time with us describing your job to us. Usually I think people in the beauty industry are the same but your business is very interesting. Its great that you can deal with the drama of the weddings and still enjoy your job!"

How adorable is that??? Yay for middle schoolers!!!

OMG!!!

I am so excited. Our new website is just about finished! It's flash and has music and is super duper fancy :)

Here is a sneak peak of a few screen shots!

Headshots

People always ask me- "Do you only do weddings?" Although my love and passion is wedding hair and make-up, I always am up for a challenge or something different!!! Rissa and Josie of Balance Headshots approached me to do their headshots for their new and upcoming website! I jumped on it and the girls looked pretty hot if I do say so myself- Check it out:

And the final product....ding!ding!ding!ding!!!
