Raylyn, Class of 2015: Snohomish High School

Meet Raylyn! She's Class of 2015 and as gorgeous as she is, this girl does it all! From dancing, to riding to even archery…ON HORSEBACK! She really is the full package!

Our day was amazing. Raylyn selected the absolute favorite Vogue Experience and it was seriously one of the most memorable! After hair and makeup we made our way through the gorgeous hills to the stables! There we captured her with her horses, dancing attire and even that gypsy vibe she loves so much.

The day was perfect from the sun, to dare I say even the heat lol. Thank you Raylyn for such an amazing day, you are beautiful and I'm so excited for you to move towards your future! GET IT GUUUURRRLL! **Snapping fingers**

Vegas.com: My Cosmo Style : Amanda Mae Photography

Hey guys!

So Im so totally excited!! I got an email from Jennifer over at Vegas.com…thats right..VEGAS.COM! Asking if I would like to part take in their #MyCosmoStyle Challenge. I was able to come up with some super adorable outfits that make me want to 1. Go shopping, 2. Head out on a plane to the super warmth of Sin City herself lol and 3. Stay at the crazy rad Cosmopolitan!!

I decided to act like I was seriously packing to go to Vegas and what would I pack and wear. So come along with me on my trip as I pretend I went to vegas and came back to tell you all that I'm not suppose to for "What happens in Vegas……" you know the rest.



DAY 1: Check In
I wanted to wear something for my trip that was fun, cute and a little flirty. Plus with the flight I wanted my shoes to be able to easily slip on and off! Did my feet hurt in my leopard pumps? Well….not when I'm sitting and on the plane, all I did was sit lol.

I decided to wear my comfy fit skinny jeans and a fun tee, paired with my diamond earrings The Hubs gave me for our 6th year wedding anniversary. I couldn't forget my other favorite guy, Mr. Michael Kors and he had to be paired with a gold chain bracelet.

When I checked it I forgot I had my sunglasses on and felt totally celebrity chic! Overall, my actual Check In was a breeze and my  Check In Outfit was awesome, making me feel like a traveling cutie!

DAY 1: The Evening
For our night out to dinner, I wanted to wear something that was cute, sexy and fun! Neon pumps were a must and I paired it with my faux leather leggings since the nights are just a bit warmer than Washington's lol. My white peplum top was perfect with red lips, cat eyes and not to mention falsies to brighten my baby browns!

The night was a total success, we had dinner in the Cosmoplitan and decided to take a taxi for Karaoke!! My hubs was amazing and we both rocked the house, I did get a little red lipstick on the mic, but thats all right I had my lipstick in my clutch haha!! ;)


DAY 2: Pool Side
We woke up to room service and decided that today would be a relaxing, lounging, and shopping day! I busted out my favorite bikini, pairing it with teal earrings, a cuff and some coral lip gloss. Using my sun hat to give me shade but also be fabulous and walking the lobby in my kaftan and gold wedges! We swam and relaxed and enjoyed the sun! Got a bit more sun than I expected; but the pool and relaxation just melted that thought away!


DAY 2: Shopping!!!
As we finished up our time at the pool, we decided to head out to shop! I wanted to be fun and fabulous and thought a graphic crop top with a maxi skirt, adding pops of color would be so fun! I added my favorite bright berry lips and my gold accessories, I was ready to shop until I dropped!!!



DAY 2: Sushi & A Show
I wore a bright wine backless blouse with my glitter skirt, nude pumps and accessories! Adding a warm smokey eye to really make my brown eyes pop! We decided to head out to Sushi for our last night. The Concierge at the Cosmopolitan was absolutely awesome! They hooked it up and we had some of the best sushi EVAAAAAAA! We headed out to go see one of the most popular shows! This trip was amazing and fashiony fabulous!!
Overall our pretend visit to Cosmopolitan in Las Vegas was absolutely everything I had thought (wink wink lol).

I had a ton of fun putting these outfits together and letting my imagination run wild with a trip to vegas! Thank you Vegas.com and don't be surprise if we do in fact plan a trip! lol

Thank you again!

xoxo,
Amanda

Alex Jensen : Class of 2014 : Amanda Mae Photography

Meet Alex!

I'm so excited I get to finally share her shoot!! She is beautiful, lovely, a hard worker and is such a great young lady! I had the pleasure of taking her portraits and we had an amazing time. With her love for lipsticks and my love for big hair, we were the perfect pair lol.

She really is amazing and her shoot was totally epic with tons of outfit changes, styling and not to mention one of my fav images, where she climbed a wall and balanced herself on it! Having her willing to climb a wall to get the shot, is every photographer's dream! lol

Thank you Alex for being amazing and awesome! I loved your shoot and I know you are just going to rock this world!!

CONGRATS!!

We totally wanted to soak up every ounce of moment with this girl! She is seriously just a natural!
