48 Hours in Arizona

October 16, 2020

Hi there, happy Friday! In the midst of all the wedding planning craziness, we took a little break to fly to Arizona for my uncle’s wedding last weekend. It was such a beautiful time – keep reading to hear all about it!

It was quite a whirlwind trip! We left for the airport around 3am on Saturday morning not quite knowing what to expect when we got to the airport. This was our first time flying, or using any type of mass transit, since COVID-19 so we didn’t know what we were walking into. Overall, I’d say the airport was exactly the same. Other than everyone wearing face masks and attempting to social distance, I didn’t notice it to be any less busy than any other time I’ve flown which did surprise me a little bit. Luckily, we flew on Southwest and they aren’t selling the middle seats right now so Connor and I had a whole row to ourselves on the way there and back. Our flights were the COVID-19 version of “full” (~60% capacity/93 people) though so people are definitely starting to travel again.

Once we landed, we picked up our rental car. Tip: If you’re under 25 years old (which Connor and I are) Hertz isn’t charging the young driver fee right now and it saved us a ton of money! Something else to look out for if you’re traveling during the pandemic is the rental car shuttle lines. At Phoenix Sky Harbor, there were literally about 300 people in line for the shuttle – I’d never seen it like that before. They can only let 10 people on each shuttle bus at a time so it got really backed up but they were super efficient with sending buses every couple minutes.

Once we got our rental car, we headed to get a late lunch. We went to the Hayden location of Butters Pancakes & Cafe (click here) in Scottsdale and it seriously was the best brunch we’ve ever had. I got the Belgian waffle with fresh banana on the top, Connor got the garden skillet, and we split a toasted plain bagel with cream cheese. I will admit that we were starving after the travel day we’d had but it was DELICIOUS. If you go, you have to get the orange juice. It tastes like you’re drinking right from a fresh orange and I wish I could have it everyday!

Before we made our way to Sedona, we made a few quick stops since we knew we weren’t going to get there until much later in the evening anyway. Our first stop was Papago Park. Papago Park is close to the airport and is a nice little park area where you can do a super easy and short hike and see some cacti. Next, we stopped at the Royal Palms Resort & Spa because I always see it all over Instagram and I wanted to see for myself! We only walked around for a few minutes but it’s so beautiful – I’d love to stay there someday. And pretty much every inch of it is an amazing photo opportunity! The last thing we did before we got to Sedona is stop at Montezuma Castle National Monument which is the perfect stop if you’re doing a Phoenix to Sedona road trip.

Once we made it to Sedona, we met up with the rest of my family at our Airbnb. We had a stunning view of the red rocks and the house was perfect! It was only about 10 minutes away from L’auberge de Sedona (click here), where the wedding was on Sunday afternoon. The venue was BEAUTIFUL and the wedding was such a success! It got me even more excited for our wedding next weekend(!!!).

On Monday morning, we left for the airport around 4am and flew home. Overall, it was a wonderful 48 hours in Arizona although I wish we could’ve stayed longer! My next post will be about all the last minute things I’m doing this week to prepare for the wedding. I’m so excited… talk to you then!

My Bachelorette Weekend

October 9, 2020

Hi everyone, happy October a.k.a. our wedding month!!! I can’t believe after over almost a year of planning, we’re down to just a couple weeks until our big day. I’ve absolutely loved the wedding planning process and I’m getting so sad that it’s almost over! Going right along with the wedding theme of my recent posts, today’s is all about my Bachelorette party! Keep reading to find out where we went, where we stayed, and what we got up to…

Usually, the Maid of Honor throws the Bachelorette party but since we’re having a micro-wedding, I’m not having a typical bridal party so I got to have a big hand in planning a low-key, fun weekend with my best gals! We originally made our plans back in the Spring so COVID-19 was in full swing and while we were hoping it would be gone by September, we wanted to pick somewhere somewhat local so we decided to go to Philly for a night!

On Saturday afternoon, we all were coming from different directions so we met at Iron Hill Brewery in Wilmington, DE and had lunch. We got to sit outside on the riverfront and it was beautiful and delicious! It was so nice to chat and catch up with everyone. One of them I hadn’t seen since college graduation which was almost three years ago so it was extra special!

Once we made it to Philly, we headed to the hotel. We stayed at the most beautiful boutique hotel ever! It’s called the Lokal Hotel and they have two locations in Philly; we stayed in the Fishtown one. It’s contactless so they don’t have a lobby or a front desk or anything like that, you just put in a code at the door and walk right up to your room! We stayed in the room called the Big Jawn. Keep scrolling to look at the most beautiful 2-story boutique hotel “room” you’ve ever seen!

When I was upstairs unpacking, the girls set up the downstairs with photos of Connor and I, bride and engagement ring balloons, confetti poppers, and it was just perfect! We got there a little later on in the evening and wanted a pretty chill night, especially with being in a city during COVID-19 times so we took our relaxing night in to the next level. We watched Twitches 1 & 2 (hello spooky season!), DoorDashed cheesecake slices from The Cheesecake Factory, made bead bracelets, and I caught them up on all my wedding planning!

The next morning, we had to check out at 11am so before then, we headed out to get a quick bite to eat. We were SO SAD to leave! I seriously could’ve lived in that hotel room for a year and never gotten tired of it. Now we just need someone else in the group to get engaged so we can go back for another Bachelorette weekend there!

On the way home, one of my friends and I decided to make a last minute stop at Linvilla Orchards in Media, PA and holy moly, was that a good decision! If you live in the Delaware/southern Pennsylvania area, you probably know of Milburn Orchards… Linvilla is like Milburn times 100. It was awesome and totally got us in the Fall spirit (as if we needed any help!)! Pumpkins galore and they had a garden center and bakeshop where I could barely resist the apple cider donuts.

All in all, the weekend couldn’t have been any more perfect and I am so excited to see them all again at the wedding in just a couple weeks! In the meantime, make sure to check out my last post on our honeymoon destination options. Have a great week!

Our Top 5 Honeymoon Destinations

September 18, 2020

Hi there! Today’s post is one I’m super pumped for because who doesn’t like to talk about dream travel destinations? Although it does feel a little bit like torture considering we’re not really allowed to travel right now because of the pandemic but one can dream, right? Luckily, we planned from the beginning to take a delayed honeymoon because of work so although we’re getting married in October, we won’t go on our honeymoon until next Summer. It really worked out in terms of the travel restrictions!

Our first option is… Hawaii! Connor and I have both never been to Hawaii and we’re dying to go. Hawaii also just feels like a honeymoon location, you know? With it taking so long to get to from the East Coast, I don’t know if we’d ever make it there if we don’t go now so it’s definitely a top contender. Specifically Kauai! We’re looking for a pretty low-key and relaxed but adventurous honeymoon and Kauai seems like it’s exactly what we’re going for in terms of the landscape and activity options. And can you say STUNNING!? Everyone we talk to whose been there raves and raves about it and we want to see for ourselves!

Our next option is a California road trip. This is veryyy up our alley – we’re always down for a good road trip! A few years ago, we road tripped through New England all the way up to Maine and it was a blast so we can imagine this would be just as fun. We would probably fly into San Francisco and slowly make our way down the coast and it just seems like such a dream! If we do this, where should we stop along the way? Leave us your California road trip recommendations in the comments!

And for another tropical option, we’re thinking about the Bahamas! This is another location I’ve never been and it seems like I’m missing out. We could fly there, we could take a cruise there, so many possibilities! Have you been to the Bahamas? If so, leave us your recommendations below!

Next up… Canada! Canada has always been on our bucket list. Banff, Toronto, Vancouver – so many beautiful places! Canada is a great option because you can really go any time of the year. In Summer, it’s stunning, and in Winter, the snow just makes it even more magical! Even if we don’t go here for our honeymoon, I think it’s definitely going to be a trip we take in the next few years.

And lastly, an over-water hut! Is there anything that sounds more thrilling (and insanely expensive) than this? To be honest, this is the very first thing we looked into when we started planning our honeymoon. It just sounds so cool and there’s a ton of different places you could go to do the over-water hut or bungalow. It is unbelievably expensive though so I don’t think it’s going to happen for us now but it’s been nice to think about!

Those are all the ideas we threw around and I can happily say that we have our dream honeymoon booked! Where do you think we’re going? We’re super excited – now we just have to book our flights. I can’t wait to share our experience with you; it’s gonna be a blast!

The Hotel of My Millennial Dreams

April 2, 2019

Hey hey hey gals, I hope your Spring is going well so far! I recently took a short weekend trip to Washington, DC and I’m excited to tell you all about it. Let’s get started!

Other than the weather finally getting warmer, one of the main reasons I wanted to head to DC for a weekend getaway was because I’ve been dying to stay at Hotel Hive. Hotel Hive is a small, boutique hotel in a great location. It’s within walking distance to the monuments and museums, Georgetown… so many fun, touristy places! The rooms are smaller than normal hotel rooms but they’re so cute. Hotel Hive also has a rooftop that you can go up on when the weather is nice! We arrived in the city on a Friday morning and immediately checked in. We had a room on the top floor and the bed was so cozy!

Since we had a whole day ahead of us, we decided to rent bikes. I’ve been to DC many, many times but I’ve always done everything by foot. Renting bikes was such a game changer! It was $8 to rent them for the whole day so that’s what we opted to do. We rode all around the Mall and went over to the Jefferson Memorial, which I’d never been to. It’s a little bit out of the way so getting there by bike was super nice and quick!

By the time we headed back to the hotel at the end of the day, we were so tired. We decided to get food delivered instead of going out so we used DoorDash for the first time. Living in a small town, I’ve never used Postmates or anything like it and it was so cool and convenient! We got Cheesecake Factory and had dinner and dessert in bed. Amazing!

We ended our little weekend getaway with a morning of walking around Georgetown. It was so fun! Even though DC is close enough for us to do in a day, sometimes it’s nice to be a tourist in your own backyard. Let me know in the comments if you’ve ever been to DC… Have a great week!

My Week in Arizona

January 8, 2019

Hi cuties, welcome back to another post on the Allison in Wonderland blog! Over the holidays, I spent a week in Arizona so I wanted to share a little bit about what I was up to when I was there. Let’s get started!

As soon as we got there, all I wanted to do was explore around the area we were staying in so we decided to take a walk around the neighborhood because the weather was SO NICE. Coming from 30 degree east coast weather, I think anything warmer would’ve felt nice but it was around 70 degrees and perfect. Throughout our trip, we took a lot of little walks and it was nice to get outside and feel the sunshine!

One of my favorite things we did while we were out there was go to a place called Bowlero. It’s a bowling alley but also a restaurant, arcade, and an all-around great time. They have huge screens at the end of each alley showing different movies, TV shows, and sporting events. It was awesome! I’ll definitely be going back next time I’m in Arizona.

After bowling, we headed to the Phoenix Zoo to see their Christmas light exhibit. It was PACKED when we got there and had to stand in a line that was about a mile long to get in. Surprisingly, it didn’t take too long to get through and once we got in, we had a great time! There were tons of different light setups and shows and it was super fun!

The next day was Christmas Eve so we headed to a church service at Christ’s Church of the Valley (CCV). They have a few different locations around the Phoenix area and it was absolutely incredible! They have quite the set up – it’s just like a college campus. They even have a coffee shop inside the church! If I lived in the area, I’d definitely be going there every week. After the service, we headed to Christmas Eve dinner at a restaurant called Roy’s and it was delicious.

The next few days were a little bit jam packed. We celebrated Christmas, got Thai massages, and I had a couple fun photoshoots! Recently when I travel, I’ve tried scheduling a shoot or two so I have the chance to work with other creatives that I wouldn’t have access to at home. It’s so nice to connect with people who are doing the same thing as you, just in a different place!

I had such a fun and relaxing week in Arizona and I can’t wait to visit again. I’ll be back next week with a post full of tips for living on your own so make sure to check back for that. Thank you for reading!

A Saturday in New York City

November 27, 2018

Hey everyone, welcome to another travel post here on Allison in Wonderland!  A few weekends ago, one of my best friends and I spent the day in New York City so now I’m here to share all about it.  Let’s get started!

First, I’d like to start out by sharing that our entire day in the city cost under $200.  I always envision traveling being super expensive and it definitely can be, but you can also have a super fun travel experience for relatively cheap.  We took an Amtrak train from Wilmington, Delaware to Penn Station and round trip cost about $150.  We booked only a few weeks out but the sooner you book, the cheaper it’ll be.  This was my second time using Amtrak and it’s always a great (and comfy) experience!

We arrived in the city around 10am and started our adventure.  First, we stopped by the Flatiron Building!  In all the times I’ve been to the city, I’d never visited so it was nice to finally see it in person.  We had planned to take an Uber from the Flatiron Building to Soho but we ended up walking.  It was beautiful outside and only about a 30 minute walk so it was nice and quick!

We spent the bulk of our day in Soho, which is a part of the city I haven’t spent much time in.  Soho has lots and lots of shopping (my favorite!) and also has great opportunities to people watch!  We started out by heading to a popular shop called Sezane.  It was super adorable and has great quality items if you’re looking to invest in your wardrobe.  Next, we headed to TicTail Market.  TicTail is a NYC shop I found online and I’m so glad we visited!  It has tons of neat accessories and it was just gorgeously decorated.

Then, we headed to a cool little place called Urban Backyard.  It’s an adorable coffee shop that’ll make you want to stay all day!  It’s super close to Freeman’s Alley, which was one of the places I wanted to check out the most.  I’ve seen the alley over and over on Instagram so I just had to see it for myself.  It’s tucked away so you might not even know you’re walking past it but it’s so beautiful!  Definitely worth a visit.

We ended up having a little more time at the end of the day then we had bargained for so we stopped in a few of our favorites like Free People and Urban Outfitters and Madewell.  We then made the trek back to Penn Station and hopped on a train home.  It was a busy day but we had an awesome time exploring a new part of the city.  That’s all for this week but make sure you come back next week for a fun holiday post.  Have a great week!

Being a Tourist In: Philadelphia

November 6, 2018

Hey hey hey, welcome back to the Allison in Wonderland blog!  Today’s post is a travel post – my first one in quite a while.  Living in Maryland, we’re pretty close to Philadelphia and I was able to adventure there this past weekend so I wanted to share everything we did!  Keep reading to hear more!

We started off by using ParkingPanda to reserve our spot in a parking garage the night before.  And no, this post isn’t sponsored – it’s just a service that I absolutely LOVE and find that a lot of people don’t know about.  ParkingPanda basically reserves you a spot in a parking garage of your choice so that way, when you get there, there’s a spot for you even if the parking garage is “full”.  It’s awesome and super cheap!  I reserved a spot right on Walnut Street between Independence Hall and Rittenhouse Square Park and it was only $9 for the entire day!  Once we parked, we headed towards Old City to begin our day.

First, we walked through Washington Square, the lawn by Independence Hall, and Franklin Square.  Franklin Square is always a favorite of mine because you can see the Benjamin Franklin Bridge from there and it’s a cool view for sightseeing.  After that, we dove deeper into Old City and had a blast walking along all the cobblestone streets.  We made our way down to the water and found a huge antique/flea market going on.  That’s one of my favorite things about cities…you’ll always stumble upon something neat!

Once we were finished in Old City, we made our way back to Walnut Street.  We stopped at the cutest coffee shop called J’aime French Bakery and rested our legs for a bit.  We then set out again and headed towards Rittenhouse Square Park.  It was my first time at Rittenhouse Square Park and I really enjoyed it!  It was super beautiful because all the leaves were changing color and it surprisingly wasn’t that busy.  On our way back, we stopped in a few shops (Walnut Street is known for it’s shopping) and that wrapped up our day.

It’s so nice living in a place where cities like Philadelphia and Washington DC are doable for a day trip.  What’s your favorite city?  Let me know in the comments below.  Next week, I’ll be sharing a fun fashion lookbook so keep your eye out for that!  Have a great week!

Being a Tourist In: Maine + Road Trip Playlist

June 1, 2018

Hi cuties, welcome back to my blog!  Today’s post is a travel post because I just got back from spending Memorial Day weekend in Maine!  Throughout this post, I’m going to take you through what we did while we were there and what songs I made sure to have on my playlist for the long drive.  Let’s get started!

We started out our drive around 3:30am.  That’s right, 3:30am.  It was way way way earlier than I was hoping to leave but we had about a 10 hour drive ahead of us so we wanted to get an early start to beat the traffic – especially with it being a holiday weekend.  Since we were driving from Maryland, we hit the outskirts of New York City just as the sun was rising and it was so beautiful!  We didn’t hit any traffic on the way up, which was a huge blessing.  The drive did take a bit longer than we had expected however because we decided to take a more scenic route and drive along the coast for most of the way.  It was the best decision!  We got to see a ton of adorable little towns and looking at the ocean all the way up was so much nicer than looking at a highway for hours on end.

Since we were driving for so long, a killer playlist was a must.  I’m the type of person who likes a lot of different types of music so I thought I’d share a few songs that were on repeat to get us through the drive…

Pour Some Sugar On Me by Def Leppard

Re: Stacks by Bon Iver

No Diggity by Blackstreet, Dr. Dre, and Queen Pen

I Still Wonder by The Chain Gang of 1974

Should’ve Been a Cowboy by Toby Keith

Once we finally made it to Maine, we checked into our Airbnb.  We could tell from the photos that it was going to be a nice place to stay but the property was more amazing that we could have hoped for!  It was a little cottage that was located right on the water and it was so, so peaceful!  If you’d like to check it out, click here.  This was my second time using Airbnb, the first time being when my boyfriend and I visited Nashville in December.  I really like staying in a house rather than a hotel room during vacations – it’s so convenient!  If you’re going to book with Airbnb, go to www.airbnb.com/c/allisons3280 to get $40 off your first trip!

The next day was our first full day in Maine.  The main reason we were there was to go to Acadia National Park, so that’s what we started off with!  The largest part of the park is called Mount Desert Island and it was about an hour drive from our Airbnb.  We got there pretty early in the morning and began exploring on the Park Loop Road.  It’s basically just a long road that goes all the way around the park.  Driving it took up the better part of the day but it was so scenic and so incredibly beautiful!  After we had driven all around, we ended up in Bar Harbor – a little tourist town on Mount Desert Island.  We grabbed lunch at a place called the Side Street Cafe and then made our way down to the beach.  We happened to get there during low tide and, if you haven’t heard, the tides in Maine are insane!  There’s about a 15 to 20 foot difference in low tide and high tide.  Because the water dropped so low during low tide, we were actually able to walk out to an island called Bar Island.  It was the coolest thing!

The next day, we started off at a different part of Acadia National Park called the Schoodic Peninsula.  It was a lot smaller than Mount Desert Island but just as stunning.  We had gorgeous sunny weather and were able to stop at a lot of the lookout points to take it all in (and to take photos, of course!).  Once we were done, we headed up to Quoddy Head State Park, which is just below the Canadian border.  There’s a lighthouse there and, when you’re standing by it, you’re standing on the easternmost point in the US.  How cool!  After spending some time at the lighthouse, we headed into a little town called Lubec for some lunch and then made our way back to the Airbnb.

The next day was filled with a lot of driving.  We split up our drive on the way home in two days.  The first day, we drove from Maine to Connecticut.  Since we had the entire day to only do half the drive, we drove the scenic route again but this time we stopped in some of the towns.  Our first stop was Freeport because we wanted to see the L.L. Bean flagship store.  It was humungous!  Since it was actually Memorial Day on this day, there was quite a bit of traffic and it took us a lot longer than expected to get to Connecticut but don’t worry, we still made it to the hotel in time for the Bachelorette premier. 🙂

Where we stayed in Connecticut was right by Yale so we began our last day by walking around the university.  I’d never been there before and it was the most beautiful campus!  There’s so much history in that town and it was cool to be back on a college campus again.  From there, it only took us about four hours to get home so it made the last leg of the trip very bearable.

Overall, I had an absolutely amazing time in Maine.  I would definitely go back!  Have you ever been to Maine?  Let me know in the comments below.  Have a great week and I’ll see you back here next Tuesday for another post!

Being a Tourist In: Nashville

December 26, 2017

Hey travelers, merry Christmas!  I hope your holiday was filled with friends, family, and maybe even a little bit of snow!  Welcome to my Nashville, Tennessee travel guide.  After my college graduation last week, my boyfriend and I visited music city for a few days and it was AMAZING so keep reading to hear all about what we did while we were there!

Starting off, we stayed in an Airbnb instead of a hotel.  It was our very first time using Airbnb and it ended up being perfect for us.  We rented an entire apartment and it was only around $80 a night, which is a lot cheaper than most of the hotels in the Nashville area!  We were only about fifteen minutes away from the downtown area and the apartment was the cutest!  We will definitely be using Airbnb for our next getaway.  If you haven’t used Airbnb, use this referral link (www.airbnb.com/c/allisons3280) to get started with planning your next trip!

From Harrisonburg, it took about eight hours to get to Nashville.  Because we wanted to have a chance to explore before the sun went down, we left at four o’clock in the morning and it was a pretty smooth drive.  We were a bit surprised though, when we were driving, because the clocks switched back – we had changed time zones and didn’t know we were going to!  It ended up being really convenient because we got there a whole hour earlier than expected but it definitely threw us off for a second!

When we got to the city, we hit the ground running.  Nashville is known for good antiquing, which is something my boyfriend and I both love to do, so we went to all the best shops.  We started with the Nashville Farmer’s Market, which isn’t an antique shop but was still a good way to meet some local people and get a feel for what was to come.  Next, we went to the 8th Ave Antique Mall and this is where I hit the jackpot!  Coming to Nashville, I only wanted one thing and that was a cow skull to hang as decoration in my new apartment and I found it!  Speaking of my new apartment, keep an eye out for moving blogs – they’ll be coming soon!  Moving on from that shop, we headed to Gaslamp and Gaslamp Too and these were two shops that I loved.  They had so much inventory and a good variety of styles and it wasn’t crowded at all.  After this, we headed to the Downtown Antique Mall and this one has to be my favorite out of all of them.  It’s located in this really cool, old building and I wish I could live in it!  It had a really neat vibe and I’d love to go back.

We had had a pretty packed day with the long drive and then running around to all the different shop locations but we ended our day with walking the strip.  This is where all the famous Nashville bars and souvenir shops are.  It was awesome!  There was so much to do and look at and in every bar you could hear someone performing that could’ve been on the radio and it was a really incredible experience.  My favorite tourist shop along the strip was Jack Daniel’s Genuine Goods.  They had a lot of cute trinkets that weren’t too cheesy and they actually had a really great decal selection as well!  I’d definitely recommend stopping by if you’re visiting Nashville for the first time.

Day two in Nashville was jam packed just like day one.  We started off with going to the Loveless Cafe for brunch!  I had read about the Loveless Cafe but hadn’t seen many pictures and it was so much cooler than I expected!  It was more of a compound rather than a restaurant – they had a general store, souvenir shop, and a wedding venue all on the same property!  I got pancakes and my boyfriend got a breakfast sandwich and they were both pretty good.  Not to-die-for but the atmosphere was one of a kind.  Next, we drove to Hey Rooster General Store because I had heard they had some cute Nashville apparel and I wanted to pick up something to remember this trip by.  It didn’t disappoint and I wish I could go back every weekend!

The Nashville Parthenon was next on our list and we loved it!  It’s surrounded by a little park and walking around it was a good breather from the city buildings.  Luckily, it wasn’t too cold during our time there so we were able to enjoy our time.  From there, we walked about a block over to a cookie dough shop called No Baked.  No Baked was one of my favorite places we visited!  It’s basically an ice cream shop but instead of ice cream, it’s cookie dough that you can eat.  There were a ton of cookie dough flavors and the woman that served us was so sweet.  Coming here is a must!

After getting our sugar fix from No Baked, we drove across town to the John Seigenthaler Pedestrian Bridge.  This gave us an amazing view of the Nashville skyline and you can see the strip from the bridge too.  Parking is also really convenient around the bridge so if you’re looking for something to do around the strip in the daytime, this is it!  The Nashville mural was next on our list.  Somehow, almost no one else was around when we got to the mural!  It’s an extremely popular tourist location so I guess we just got lucky but it was so fun to be able to see it in person after seeing it on Instagram and Pinterest for so many years.  For dinner that night, we went to the Flying Saucer and it was really low-key and wonderful.  We will definitely be going back next time we’re in Nashville!

 

Sadly, our third day in Nashville was our last day.  We got a pretty early start and headed to downtown Franklin, TN.  This is a town that’s about thirty minutes outside of Nashville but it’s definitely worth the drive.  They had the cutest little strip of shops (with an Anthropolgie!) and everyone was so, so nice.  That’s something that we found a lot of in Nashville – nice people!  We ended our whirlwind trip with a coffee break at a coffee shop called the Frothy Monkey and were on our way.

I’m so thankful to have had such a wonderful graduation trip and I can’t wait for the next time I’ll be back in Nashville.  Everyone was so sweet and the city has so much to offer!  Thanks for reading this week’s post and I’ll be back next week to show you what I got for Christmas this year.  See you then!

Daydreaming in Central Park

November 7, 2017

Hi cuties and welcome to this week’s Allison in Wonderland post!  A few weeks ago, I traveled to New York City for the weekend (New York City travel post linked here) and when I was there, I did a photoshoot with one of my favorite Los Angeles based photographers named Taylor Krause!  We started out in the Columbus Circle area and then moved more into Central Park towards the end of the shoot and the photos turned out amazingly well!  Scroll down to take a peek at some of my favorite ones.

Aren’t those photos so neat?  I’m obsessed with them!  If you’re interested in learning more about Taylor or want to book a session with her, follow her on Instagram at @taylorkrausecreative and make sure you’re following me at @allisantmyer while you’re at it.  Thanks for reading this week’s quick little post and I’ll see ya next week for another one!
