Party Favors Galor!

I found the coolest website last week full of ideas and products for party favors.  Tons and tons of them!  For weddings, bridal showers, baby showers, and birthday parties.  If you need a party favor then you will find it there or for me it gave me a ton of ideas for my daughters birthday coming up in a little under a month.  Wanted to share my find with all of you!  Enjoy!

BEAU-COUP

Pink Bloom Flower Brenda Landrum Photographer

I have returned to my fine art photography lately and of course my most beloved subject is flowers.  I started going through my past work with flowers and it was fun to see that no matter how many times I have photographed the same flower I seem to see it differently every time.  I think it has a lot to say with what is going on in my life and how I am evolving and changing as an artist and a person.  When I was taking the image above I knew that I wanted it to be light and airy by using white and keeping the aperture wide for softness, I had the technical side all figured out.  It was when I started looking at the image and what I had been thinking about the day I took it that it hit me the meaning behind this image for me.  That day is when my husband left for his business trip in Seattle and I had been thinking a lot about our family of 3 and how much I love the simplicity of that.  I get a lot of flack about how I do not want to have anymore children.  The one that I have is enough, I feel complete.  Complete at three.  That is what this image means for me.  Three.  Close.  Family.

I think photographers should always photograph for themselves to inspire and challenge.  It is so easy to get into a rut and burned out so by changing focus a little bit from time to time is good.  Plus I start photographing flowers this time of the year for some reason.  I’m tired of winter and need some color and life!

My Girl With Her New Do

Here she is.  My Girl with a few less hairs on her head.  I first mentioned this **incident** last week Thursday.  She really didn’t do to bad of a job just a bit short in the one area.  I am not quite sure what she was thinking but if it was to get my attention she got it.  Last week was crazy around here and for those of you who follow my Twitter feed or are my Facebook friend you saw that pretty much the only thing on my mind was kindergarten and what school.  We had two school info nights, a lot of mixed feelings, and confusion.  Then the phone call came that we never thought would occur.  We won the school lottery!  Her name was magically drawn out of the lottery for the school we had at the top of our list.  This school is really hard to get into being there are hundreds and hundreds of names in the lottery but only a limited number of openings.  I still can not believe it and why I did not delete the voice mail they left.  I keep checking it to make sure.  This morning I went and sat in the kindergarten class and I am so happy that I did.  Seeing the teacher and her current class eased all my worries, for now, and I can not wait for her to start there in the fall.
