When old is good....

I am obsessed with the vintage look and feel. I wanted to share this photo with you to show what can be done. I can apply these borders to any of your photos to add an extra cool effect for your memory books or framed prints!

Sweet Sweet Chloe

I had the priviledge to take some very cute photos of one little Chloe. What a charmer! Even with the silliest of faces, this one will break your heart!

The oh so cute "M" family.....

I had to share photos of my session today. The adorable M family were so great and I am looking forward to taking more at our next session! The weather was perfect and I could not have asked for better "super models"! Thanks!!

Holidays Holidays Holidays!

I knew that Christmas is almost here when I walked into Target yesterday and my daughter yelled "Mama...TREES!!!" All of the decorated trees were up and music was playing. I personally love Christmas and the surrounding holidays, so it got me in the mood.

Now, have you thought about your holiday cards? As you can see below, I have a few choice. I also am partnering with a fantastic card designer here in Arlington that is offering some great choices and will do custom work also. Tara of TLC by Tara has some great samples on her site. She is great and very easy to work with! Please take a minute and peruse her work, if not for holiday cards, then for all of the other things she designs!!

Tis' the season....

to think about holiday cards! Want something a little funky this year? Something that will make the fridge of all your friends? This year I am offering some uniquely designed holiday cards!

The cards will be flat (no fold over) 5x7, printed on high quality card stock by a professional lab. The minimum order is 25, and additional cards need to be ordered in amounts of 25 cards. Each card is $1.75, orders over 50 will receive a discount! I will need orders no later than November 20. Have a Happy Holiday!!

The question I am always asked..."How do you find great stuff on Etsy?"

I am asked this question more and more and I want to give you what works for me. Etsy can be overwhelming because there are SO many talented designer/artists on the site.

So lets break it down, let me begin with one area, toddler clothes. I am constantly looking for baby/toddler clothes for photoshoots (and let's be honest, my own children!) When looking for a funky design of fabric, I add the designer name in the search engine, ie Amy Butler, Denyse Schmidt or Michael Miller. If a seller on Etsy uses one of these fabrics, they typically work with the others. Once I am in their store, I might look at that sellers favorites, other buyers/sellers that like that shop etc etc. It is all about looking for the "work around".

The next place to look is on the home page on the far left. Click on "Time Machine 2" This will list what has recently sold, a great place to view what others are buying. I get great ideas on all types of listings from clothing to home goods.

Finally, if you want something, I would be shocked if someone didn't make it on Etsy. Honestly, try, look it up...you most likely will be pleasantly surprised.

The artists on Etsy are fantastic to work with, way better than your favorite store. Can you imagine going into the Gap and seeing a pair of jeans that are almost perfect, but you really wish the leg was a little wider or the waist just a little higher? Those are the types of changes someone on Etsy would make for you. You just "convo" the seller (etsy speak) and ask them to make the changes.
