Welcome Allie!!! : )

Many of you have already had the chance to “meet” our sweet Allie through e-mails these past few weeks, but I’ve been SO excited to actually take a day to formally introduce her here on the blog!  For those of you who don’t know, Allie is 1. our new business manager and 2. my baby sister… and she’s now 100% on-board here at Amy Tripple Photography!!!

There’s a lot I could tell you about Allie, seeing that I shared a room with her for 16 years. : )  I could tell you that she is an absolutely beautiful person, inside and out.  I could share that she was a kick-butt teacher for 6 years.  I could tell you that she believed me, as a four year old, when I told her that I had a leprechaun hidden in a secret spot but could never ever EVER show it to her (SO sorry about that one, Al!).  I could share that she’s out-of-this-world organized, doesn’t like long lists (and is constantly checking things off of them), and has a very gentle and perfect way of reminding me to put stuff away when I’m done with it.  I could mention that she treats Wrigley, her yellow lab, like a real baby and calls her “Moo Moo” and “Muffinhead”.  I could tell you that she’s teeny and sweet but has it in her to be tough… I’ve watched the girl break boards in half, mid-air, with her bare feet through years of karate training.  She’s a pretty multifaceted girl, for sure. : )  There’s a lot I could share…

But I think what I’ll tell you about Allie is that, in a million years, I don’t know how we got as lucky as we did to have her as a business manager.  She’s kind, she’s firm, she’s organized, she’s sweet, and she has a *fabulous* sense of style.  Allie is a gem, and I’m oh-so-proud to introduce her to you today!!!

Thought it might be fun to do a little list of “Allie’s Faves” for you guys today…

perhaps it will give you a better idea of who she is and what makes her tick.
