I have been playing around with a new look to add to my arsenal! The image has to be very specific for it has not worked on all images but Ava’s were perfect for this. These are using the Troy action from Totally Rad Actions mix but used at a low opacity. I like the antique look it gives, especially in these images!
What do you think?
I have been scouring the internet for weeks now for a really great looking CD Case for my clients disks. I have been pretty embarrassed with my very BAD presentation of disks now for awhile. I package my products to look so beautiful and then there is the clear jewel case that is screaming “ugly CD inside”! I have been asking others what they do and pretty much got suggestions for what I did not want to do. Was either not my style or just plain expensive!!! To have something ‘custom’ printed is outrageous! Cha-Ching $$$$ Finally this weekend I had an epiphany, why not make the holder myself? I love creating hand made cards and all of my packaging is hand done, each is unique because I probably never do it the same way. This is fun for me so why I didn’t apply it to the disks I just don’t know!
So today I finally sat down and tried it out. I started with some black card stock, some pretty black and white paper, ribbon, logo sticker, and a disk holder that is sticky on one side. Off I went and in no time had something more beautiful then anything I have seen online and completely hand made by me (except the sticky plastic holder which I bought at my local office suppy store). I love it! What do you think???
I love to watch behind the scenes of Annie Leibovitz photographing portrait subjects. Last year there was a video of her photographing Queen Elizabeth that was fascinating! This video is of her photographing Conny Dufgran, the co-founder of Profoto. It’s fun to watch, if your a photographer that is. One thing that I found so funny was that this video catches Annie ‘chimping’!!! Love it!
Here is the image from the shoot! I love everything that is going on in this image but the most important, the lighting is absolutely PERFECT! Click the image below to be taken to the website to view the video.
My 2009 Calendar has been released! I love this collection of images, these images were all taken in 2007 when many of my family and friends were bringing new lives into the world. I was inspired to document a moment that goes by so quickly, the newborn. There are 5 different babies and one beautiful pregnant belly! Thank you to all of the families that let me come into their homes to photograph their newest editions!
I have set up a separate page where you can use PayPal to purchase your calendars! CLICK HERE I am offering 2 different sizes this year and my Wall Calendar is so beautiful!
