Dream House





 









I am probably a good 3 years away from owning a house, especially as a single mother, so I spend a lot of time dreaming about my dream house. I don't dream too big, I don't want a mansion or a rolling ranch, I just want a small craftsman style home. I found this quite dainty and sweet home that coos "buy me".

Give. Live. Love.





Back again!
Give: Image 3D's view finder wheel. Isn't it darling?  I would put family pictures, engagement or wedding photos for my loved ones.

Live: Carmex lip balm in these cold winter days. My lips absolutely love the cool, refreshing coating and have yet to crack.

Love: new portrait lens. Pictured is Canon's EF 85 mm, a nice bit of change, but with the photography side of my business growing, it could be a rewarding investment in the long run.

 Tell me what would you give, live and love?

Thrifty Thursday

Thrifty Thursday is when I get an opportunity to spotlight awesome thrift store finds. Today I shine onto my boyfriend's vintage camera collection.

The cameras come from a broad range of thrift and secondhand stores in the area, and all of them acquired for next to nothing. The first camera shown is his pride and joy, a Polaroid Land Camera with a sonar feature. He picked it up for only $30 at a St. Vincent de Paul. The others are more common cameras from the 1960s and up, but what they lack in originality they make up with in genuine patina and vintage allure.

Just Hanging with my Flamingo


Julian and his little friends decided to grant me a quick fashion photo session. He is an amazing model, if a model's job is running away from the camera or getting in really, really close. Despite this, he is a natural ham and I am his biggest fan.
