Photography:

My latest photo shoot. Wow, what a day that was! There was the usual cloudy, cold weather and even a good dose of rain to deal with, but everyone seemed to be in good spirits despite the gloomy weather. I had it all mapped out in my mind just where we would set up a mini-session at the local park. Of course as photo shoots often go, I was disappointed to find that my first location was unusable. Even though it was raining there was a work crew out chopping down brush and I didn't figure this would be a good backdrop for family photos ;-). I had everyone cross over to another covered patio at the other end of the park which was plan B, but when we got there we found that it was also being used as a temporary shelter for a bicyclist. Judging from the looks of it, I don't think he wanted to share with all of us. So we moved on and finally found a place to snap a few shots below an overhang on a park bench. I stood in the rain and tried my best to keep my camera dry, but at this point I was glad for a nice mostly dry bench for the models and some pretty smiles. The photos turned out so beautiful and I was impressed with the number of shots that most if not all of the models were looking at the camera (or at least that general direction).

It was cold out there, so we wrapped it up as quickly as possible and headed for the nearest coffee shop for warm up drinks. Our group grew by four by the time we hit the store, but we all fit in nice and cozy around a few tables that we haphazardly shoved together.

Such a fun day


P.S.
The colors may be off because I am not use to the current dinosaur I am on after my computer crashed. I think it has to do with the calibration or something. Anyway, enjoy.

Caribbean Bracelet

I just love this Etsy bracelet. I want to clasp it on with a nice island dress. Something small, and reserved so this little beauty can be the star of the show. Of course, I need to make all the reservations on some hot island somewhere first, but I may just have to worry about that later...
