Schyler, my fiance, and I weren’t able to make it out to a x-mas tree farm last year! Normally we buy a real Christmas tree every year but we had recently moved to the area and it just didn’t happen. I really wanted to get back to our usual tradition this year so we visited our first Pennsylvania Christmas tree farm just outside of Pittsburgh. The lighting turned out to be a little tricky to work with in the morning when we visited, but I’m so glad we were able to snap a few photos to remember the moment by with our tripod!

I can’t believe Christmas is almost here again… our first year as an engaged couple flew by! Schyler proposed to me during Christmas last year in New York in a magical location in Central Park which was a dream come true. I have been so excited planning fun things and new traditions for us this Christmas! Schyler and I have been together for 8 years and we’ve always taken annual Christmas photos. When Indio joined our little family, he became a part of the tradition! In this blog post I’m sharing our Christmas photos + our boho Christmas decorated Pittsburgh loft apartment. Last year, we had barely any furniture in our apartment, but this year the apartment looks so cozy and homey with our festive decor and I’m obsessed!

Last fall we had just moved in to our apartment and barely had any decor or furniture in it! This fall season our apartment is finally fully decorated so I was actually able to decorate this year. It really feels like home now so I wanted to capture some fall photos at home with my fiance Schyler. We’ve been together going on 8 years now but this is our first fall as an engaged couple so I think that makes it a little extra special 😉 I’ve had this yellow plaid dress for a few years now and thought it would be perfect for a fall touch. We are getting really good at this whole tripod thing now too lol although it’s about time for an upgrade lol. I’ve linked our outfits below (some are similar items) and some of the kitchen decor too!

I can’t believe it’s our second fall here in Pittsburgh, but this one is extra special because it’s our first year as an engaged couple! My fiance Schyler and I wanted to celebrate with a fun fall day at the pumpkin patch and of course we had to take some photos to remember it by. We have gone to the pumpkin patch every year for the past 8 years we have been together and I can’t wait to continue the tradition with our family in the future! We got to take a hay ride to the pumpkin patch, the corn maze, and pet some cute farm animals. It reminded me of the animals I grew up with on the farm in eastern Washington!

My 28th Birthday + Life Update!

At the end of June, we celebrated my 28th birthday. For some reason this birthday has made me reflect a lot on where I’m at in life. Probably because it’s a little to close for comfort to 30! I’m not scared of getting older or anything like that, but I can’t help feeling like I haven’t accomplished as much as I wanted to by this age. I’m very driven and goal oriented so when I don’t feel like I’m achieving enough I start to get down on myself. A couple of the big goals I was hoping to have by now were getting married, buying a house, starting a family…

Our Christmas photos look a little different this year! We usually head to the Christmas tree farm but decided to take photos at home instead with Indio and I actually love how they turned out! My sister is coming to visit us this Christmas so I wanted to make our apartment extra cozy and special for the holiday! My interior decor style is bohemian meets mid-century modern and it can be hard to find Christmas ornaments that fit that style so I ended up making my own DIY ornaments and decorating around those.

We moved to Pittsburgh about a month ago (can’t believe how time flies) just in time for the fall season! From what I’ve seen in photos, Pennsylvania is beautiful in the fall and I can’t wait to see it in the peak of the season. I’m already seeing some leaves changing so I’m super excited. We visited the pumpkin patch over the weekend and took some photographs to remember this time by.

There is a lot of emphasis on gifts for women around Valentine’s Day, but the men in our lives (including fathers and friends) deserve a little something too! I thought my valentine of six years deserved something a little special this year, so I gifted him an exquisite assortment of Ferrero Golden Gallery Signature chocolates. I don’t think anyone loves chocolate more than Schyler and I, and Ferrero has always been one of our favorites so naturally it was the perfect choice!

I love all of the Christmas traditions like sledding, making gingerbread houses, and picking out the perfect tree. Another favorite Christmas tradition of mine is taking annual Christmas photos. This is my fourth Christmas with Schyler! Time flies by so fast, it’s crazy.

Sauvie Island Farms Christmas Photos

By Esperanza on December 11, 2017

My talented friend McKenzie did it again with these Christmas photos! I love everyone of them. Photos are such an amazing way of capturing moments we would like to remember forever. That’s why I love to find every occasion to take photos with loved ones. Schyler and I took Christmas photos at a tree farm last year so I wanted to keep up the tradition this year. We headed to Sauvie Island Farms to find the perfect tree and take some fun photos.
