{photography} here

So if I introduce myself as a sponsor, is that like shameless self promotion? Probably... :) As many of you have probably gathered, I own CioCo Photography that specializes in weddings. I LOVE photography and getting to know people, and my portrait work allows me to do that. Win, win! (It also explains the ridiculous amount of photos I already have of my daughter) ;)

I am resuming work from Maternity Leave in March and would love to photograph you or your family if you live near or close to the Salt Lake City area. I am also available for travel for weddings. I have one opening left in March, and two in April. Check out my website here, and if you mention this post when booking you will recieve 10% off! Thanks for looking!

Before I introduce you to my next sponsor, Rosy Red Buttons has been featured on Not Just a Housewife! I just found this blog, and SO glad I did, it is awesome! Thanks again!  Love my sponsor Kandice from Sweet Kiwi Crochet! She deserves a humongous welcome because she has humongous talent. ;) (Cheesy I know, but it's Thursday). I have loved Kandice's work forever now (probably because we've been friends for at least that long) and I'm so excited she's sponsoring Rosy Red Buttons. Kandice can crochet pretty much everything. Seriously. I LOVE her new sock monkey hats... ...her darling owl hats.... ...and her ever growing collection of animal hats. Dinosaurs, bees, ladybugs, giraffe's, bears, you name it she'll make it. She also makes crocheted beanies, headbands, and darling rose bands.
