Evolution of Me

No this titles doesn't represent some in depth soul searching, life changing, evolution of how I came to be where I am today - it simply illustrates the following picture.

The actual evolution of me. :) Let's take a look back and illustrate some of these funnies shall we?

{Baby Britt} - I practically look the exact same now!
{Toddler} - Photos from this shoot were used for Kiddie Candids marketing. Gotta love the jean!
{Kindergarten} - If you look closely, you can see on my upper right cheek/eye there is a dark red scratch from my lovely sister from the day before. I was so sad that I had to get my pictures taken with a scratch on my face. :(
{1st Grade} - No words. Total cutie.
{2nd Grade} - Okay awkward smarty pants here! Also still diggin the jean shirt. And the buttoned collar. Nice work mom!
{3rd Grade} - Cheesin' it up! I had to get retakes this year because in my first picture I wasn't exactly smiling. You know how they always tell you to say a silly word like "BOYS!"? Well I said it. And they took the picture before I finished. Hence the super smile for the retakes. :)
{4th Grade} - Reppin' the Old Navy tech vest baby! I also wore my hair up because all my friends and boys I liked told me that I looked really pretty with my hair up in a cheerleader ponytail with curls. haha
{5th Grade} - I love my crimped hair, Harry Potter glasses, pooka shell necklace, and my favorite Union Bay shirt. :) Very content with myself at this age. haha
{6th Grade} - AWKWARD! haha Thank you puberty for making me feel and look so awkward.
{7th Grade} - Puberty continued. ha This picture is super funny though because after I got it taken everyone told me how beautiful it was and they loved my hair, shirt and necklace. Guess I was stylin' back then? One thing they forgot to tell me was how much they loved my eyebrows though.... ;)
{8th Grade} - Fixed the eyebrow situation. Thank you wax and tweezers. Grew out of puberty. Luckily. 8th grade was a solid pic.
{9th Grade} - One of my better school pictures minus the Satan horns (AKA poof balls on each side of my head).
{10th Grade} - Goodness gracious this picture makes me sad. I decided to get retakes because I thought I didn't like my first pic. Little did I know, I was going to get in a car accident during a rain storm the morning of retakes. Hence the awful hair and shiny sweat all over my face. I was a lil stressed. haha
{11th Grade} - I loved this picture! Too bad I ended up looking like two feet too far to the left. haha

And then I didn't have my senior picture on hand, but oh well. :) I pretty much look the same then as I do now.

Pretty fun huh? At least I think so! Go get your school pictures out! What are the funny memories you have of those days? I think it's amazing that I can remember so much about each and every year! Love the memories.

Until next time,
peace yo.

Whalefish Dream

Okay so a random fact about me....I HATE FISH!!! They scare the living daylights out of me. Here's an excerpt from my journal this morning:

"Last night I had a nightmare about stupid fish again!!!!!!!!! Ugh I hate fish so bad and lately the only nightmares I've had deal with fish. Here's the dream...

So my friends and I were on vacation somewhere eating lunch at this cafe type thing. Michelle and I walked outside to look into the water of fish and all the sudden a HUGE fish (which was actually more like a whale) came to the top of the water. All the sudden he stood up and was almost as tall as us. I immediately knew that he was going to try and spit on us so I started walking away and sure enough he spit on Michelle, but she loved it. She was laughing because she thought the whalefish was playing with her. I however was running into the cafe place to escape the huge psychotic whalefish. Wrongo. I watched it jump out of the water and run towards me!! I was screaming as it was trying to spit on me. It was awful. Then in real life I woke up trying to yell. haha Oh stupid stupid fish. I hate them.

Then after that I dreamed I was in the ocean on the Bachelor Pad with Michelle Money. Super weird."

Haha entertaining right?! I thought so. Hopefully this dream doesn't come true in real life because I would have a heart attack. Happy Monday everyone! May you day be less terrifying than my dream! :)

Peace.

Room Details & How To Sneaks...

Good morning! Today I got ready suuuuuuper fast for school...maybe because my hair is in a pony tail and I just tossed on my oh-so-cool Utah Jazz jacket. Nice. Anyways, I wanted to share a few details with "how-to's" (coming in later posts) of the decorations in my room so here we go!

I have moved apartments once again! That will be 3 different apartments in one year - HOORAH!! Although the actual carrying boxes part of moving is tiring, sweaty, and takes all day, I love switching areas and reorganizing everything :) Here's what my room likes like at my new place. Very similar to my old apartment, but I told myself that every time I moved I couldn't re-do my whole room (like I've done previously). So here we are with the same cute comforter and lots of pink!

How to #1: The IKEA "queen frame". Doesn't it look like I'm trying to say, "Hail all who sleep in this bed!" Yeah I think so. But besides that, I LOVE this frame!

How to #2: The one aqua pillow behind my super cute pink pillow (found at Target last fall). My friends and I made pillows last summer and it was surprisingly super easy! Details to come!

And that would be my awesomely large closet that for some reason doesn't fit all that I want it to. ATTENTION PEOPLE!! I have way to many clothes!!! But in all fairness to me, some of my stuff is from the 9th grade and I haven't really done much growing since I was 14. For some reason I haven't been able to part with some of my stuff. Sigh. Even though it gets worn like once a year.

How to #3: Frames! Frames! Frames! A nice "toot" to come because these are super cheap, easy to make, and adorable!

How to #4: My invented earring holder is ammmmmazing. Can anyone guess what that is supposed to be used for?? :)

How to #5: The wreath ♥ This was a last minute summer project that my friend Marlena told me about. We both made one. In grey. 

Alrighty well that's all! And perfect timing because now I have to go to escuela! Have I mentioned that I am going to school full time, working 2 jobs, and running my awesome business? Yeah life gets kinda crazy. Which is why I blog at 7:00 a.m. when most college students are hitting the snooze button. :)

Peace.

Today BYU plays Texas and then next week BYU plays Utah! My three favorite teams all in 2 weeks!?! Football heaven :)

about me

My name is Brittany Aurich and I am the designer of brielle photography and design :)

My passion for photography began when I got my first camera in 9th grade. I made sure to take pictures of holidays, birthdays and all events inbetween! Since then I've had a camera either in my purse or strapped around my neck capturing all of life's memories.

brielle accessories started recently when the creative spark hit me! I love learning how to make new crafts and it's even better when they are something you can wear! I use everyday situations for my inspiration whether it is a photo, blog, or color combination. I love sparking my life with creativity and hope to share a little bit of that with you!

I am currently attending Utah Valley University studying Elementary Education and plan to graduate in May 2013.
