Marilynn: Leaving Ash-vegas

Over the past couple of years, Marilynn has become one of my closest friends. She has an infectious laugh, a quick (and sarcastic) wit, a huge heart, and the craziest eyes you've ever seen. We have a tendency to get on the phone and three hours will pass in the blink of an eye.

A few months ago, Marilynn's job moved her from Asheville, NC, which had been her home for the past 10 years, to another part of the state. To commemorate the Asheville phase of her life and to get some killer canvases for her new downtown condo, we had a marathon photo shoot all over the city. Asheville is such a laid back and colorful place--murals, brightly painted doorways, sculptures, and beautiful mountain views every way you turn.

Marilynn was a freakin' rock star during this session; see for yourself...

Um, hello eyes!

If you are a fan of live music and you've never been to The Orange Peel, you'd better head on up the mountain and correct that mistake! Awesome venue for an eclectic mix of artists. Go, now!

Looooove this series outside of the Peel...

And for your final dose of sultry sassiness...

Whatcha think, color or black & white?

Either way, WOW.

Mar--Of course, you are fabulous! :-) I miss having you just an hour away, but yay for good cell plans!
