Boise Idaho Photographer | Drive

My favorite thing about road trips... Finding entertaining things to pass the time while sitting in the passenger seat! By the time we got home from our quick trip to Utah this weekend, my eyes were so blurry things actually looked like this. It was very much worth it though... and so were these photos! :-) I think I may have found an idea for a new series of photos to hang in my home.

Boise Idaho Photographer | Utah Wedding | Sara & Garrett

This incredible couple let me be apart of their special day this weekend and I of course said, HECK YES! :-D

10+ years ago I met this cute girl at church. We were wearing the same shoes and learned within a couple hours that we had a lot in common... including our favorite band being the same. This was impressive since that band wasn't well known! We were inseparable for that day one! Even when we moved away from one another and spent long spans of time to busy to talk, we always fell back into our old patter the second we saw each other again! She is like a sister to me and seeing her so happy brings me SO much joy! I love her too the moon and beyond! Her husbands a pretty amazing guy too!

I love you both so much! Congratulations on joining the married people club!

Idaho Artist | Handmade | Utah

Those of you following me on Facebook and Instagram may have seen some sneak peaks of this "little" project! Last month I made two of these beauties for my own home, one of Idaho (the place I currently call home) and one of Alberta (my first home). The interest in them was phenomenal and because I love making them so much, I decided to take custom orders! Amberly of Life With Amberly & Joe put in an order right away! I'm pretty excited by the color of the string [which sadly isn't perfectly represented in any of the photos I've tried to take] as well as the amazing tones of the salvaged wood! Utah isn't the most elaborate shaped State but it still looks pretty fantastic if I do say so myself!

My Etsy page will be up soon but until then, if you're interested in placing a custom order, contact me at annelisewoodward@gmail.com!

Each board is made by hand, from salvaged wood making each one completely unique! You can customize your design by choosing the color of thread you desire as well as the location you call home!

Boise Idaho Photographer | Rescue is my favorite breed

I imagine this post will say a lot about me. :-)

In July of 2012 I was on Facebook looking at the page of Best Friends Animal Society when I came across the photos of these adorable little puppies!

When I pulled up the photo of the sweet brown eyed, brown faced little one named Chatter, my heart melted! I remember screaming to my husband, "I found her! I found our dog!" Needless to say I was hooked. Without his permission I went and inquired about adopting her. :-P Good thing he was just as smitten with her as I was! We brought her home a couple months later. She was the sweetest little thing. We kept expecting things to change and for her to begin behaving more like a real puppy. You know... destroying everything in site, constantly biting, eating all of our shoes. It never happened! She was such an amazing dog (still is!) But, we could tell that she was lonely.

This last spring (2013) while looking at their site again (for fun, with no intention of getting a second dog) I came across a picture of another dog named Tattle. Immediately, before reading anything about her, I knew that it was Chatters sister! She had been adopted as a puppy (the same time as Chatter) but returned for reasons I am now very grateful for.Once again I was hooked. I'm a big dog lover! No judgment please. :-)

After a long trip to Kanab, Utah, Chatter and Dezi (formerly Tattle) were reunited! By the time we returned home with the two of them they were best friends! Now nearly a year later, they're inseparable! They're do everything together and love each other very much.
As tinny little puppies they along with their 6 siblings were found in a box at a rest stop in New Mexico. The start of their life was rough, but now they're happy and loved!

Chatter (left) Dezi (right)

Chatter is still very laid back and reserved unless shes around people, and then she wants to jump on them and kiss them to death! Dezi who came to us with a lot of fear, has completely opened up. She still barks at anything unfamiliar and seems to have a real hate for cats (silly dog) but she will smuggle with and wag her tail for anyone she trusts.

Here is a post featuring all 8 of the puppies last year in honor of their first Birthday!

These girls are apart of my family and have helped me through a lot of stressful hard days! Here are some photos of them, happy as ever, today on their second Birthday! I didn't rescue them, they rescued me! :-)
