“Impressions from December : a personal project” {Anchorage Child Photographer}

‘Impressions‘ is a creative project by an eclectic group of female photographers from around the globe. We aim to share the inspiration behind what we do through our monthly posts.
On the 8th of each month, we will be sharing 8 images that tell the story of what inspired us in the previous weeks: our families, nature, weather, or maybe even work itself! We are free to explore the meaning of ‘impressions’, and it is likely to change month to month.

This month we took the Holiday Train on the Alaska Railroad. It is a family tradition that we look forward to every year! There is caroling, coloring contests, crafts, a band, and of course a visit from Mr. and Mrs. Clause. We had a blast and the scenic views are stunning! I highly recommend it! Z was very excited to tell Santa that she wanted a Flying Fairy (a surprise to us since her list has primarily consisted of trains and cars so far lol) and miss F, well, she’s just shy lol.

I hope you enjoy and then check out Susanne Ashby and her Impressions for the month!

12 Days of Christmas Giveaway Day 7 {Anchorage Child Photographer}

Today’s giveaway is another yummy yummy one! It was my absolute favorite restaurant in Eagle River, Haute Quarter Grill. It was perfect for sitting at the bar catching up with friends over drinks a amazing appetizers. It was also our favorite date night or special occasion spot. Anytime family came into town dining there was a must. While I am incredibly sad that they have left Eagle River and relocated to downtown Anchorage on 4th ave, the new restaurant is stunning. It is absolutely gorgeous inside and the food and drinks are just as incredible as ever. We love to get the blackened prime rib with the seafood creole sauce, so yuuuuummmmmy! No one has made me a pomegranate margarita as perfectly either. I am so excited to share one of Eagle Rivers best kept secrets and what is now one of Anchorage’s 😀

Thank you for playing along! I hope you have found some great new local businesses so far! Today’s giveaway is brought to you by Emmy and Lou Designs! She makes super fun and whimsical wreaths! I just love all the special accents she puts on each one. I found her at the beginning of the craft fair season (yes, its a real season right between AHHHHH I Love Fall and Oh Crap The Holidays are  already here) last year and I have loved following her since! These are not your momma’s wreaths, so if you are looking for  something more modern, she’s the gal for you! You can catch her in person at the Wonderfully Made Bazaar on December 14th at Cornerstone Church.
