Just a reminder that this Friday and Saturday is our annual Tutus & Neckties Express Session Fundraiser to benefit Family Tree in support of Child Abuse Awareness Month. We still have a few spaces left – so call soon and get on the schedule – great photos for a great cause!!!!
I’m pretty certain Jeffrey’s mommy got tired of me asking when it was going to be time to photograph HER baby… CONTINUE READING…
Bianca’s mommy and I are “family by choice” rather than blood, inseperable throughout college, sisters through good times and bad, friends always – so, of course, Bianca owns a big chunk of my heart. CONTINUE READING…
Pajama Time is one of my favorite Express Session themes – perhaps because I love just hanging out in my PJ’s all day when I can. It also reminds me so very much of when G was little and we would snuggle and read in bed, making sure that he had “LuLu”, tucking him in. There is just something so special about bedtime and the routines we have and I love that I’m able to capture some of those stories in these sessions.
I made myself a promise at the beginning of the year to shoot for ME every month – a styled shoot, a texture shoot, a nature romp – just SOMETHING for myself every single month along my storytelling photography goals. Don’t get me wrong, I LOVE photographing clients and creating artwork for them, I love helping them to capture their memories and tell their stories – but there is something about an “commissioned” shoot…a freedom, if you will…
So while sitting around this month, thinking of all of the different shoots I could style, I got overwhelmed – the natural solution? Grab a cup of coffee! Come on, doesn’t everyone focus better after a steaming cup-o-joe….hahaha. So I grabbed my cup and headed over to brew a batch of inspiration. The Keurig in my studio happens to sit atop a great antique sewing machine I bought a few years back….voila! Of course, I immediately went shopping (well, after my AM clients) for props. Do you think I could find a sewing smock anywhere? NO! So, I decided to make one instead! Thanks, Grams, for teaching me to sew all those years ago…
So, may I present, the little seamstress…
PSSSSTTTTTT…….this is just the first in a series I’ll be doing all year…..stay tuned.
