A few weeks ago I mentioned on Facebook that something super fun was in the works.  It’s getting closer!!  Last night I had a super fun shoot for this “something fun” that is coming up very soon!!  I can’t give it away but seniors, you will want to stay tuned!  That’s all I can say!!  Here is a little peek.

ps…  how many times can I say “fun” and “super” in one post?  A lot apparently!

Happy Thursday!!

You may have seen my gush on Facebook about my newest purchase.  I got to play with it a bit this morning.  Love it!

Rose reading the manual.  :)If you’re not familiar with this lens, this will give you an idea of what it does.  I was sitting in the grass in my front lawn, same position for both.

Happy Friday!!

One of the main questions I get asked is what to wear, especially from seniors.  So I decided to start a recurring post called “what to wear”.  I love fashion and I love giving guidance.  Layers, accessories, embellishments, and color are always what I recommend.  They can really add a little spice to your pictures.

Here are some good examples.  All of these outfits are from H&M.  Go to their website and experience the fashion studio.  It’s awesome!  That is how I made these outfits.

Although they don’t offer online shopping in the US and the nearest one is in St. Louis I still wanted to share these because they are good examples.  Here is the nearest location if you’re interested.

More to “what to wear” posts to come in the future.  Cheers!

I love Pottery Barn.  Here are some ideas for how to display your beautiful portraits.

This is one of my favorites. I love the idea of having framed pictures sitting on a shelf, table, or even the floor. This would also work really well with color photographs.

Another favorite. I love the range of sizes. There is a range from small to large, even a wide format print.
