I just love how these patterns looked togehter… I had to snap a shot!
and I played around with some Joey flaps too…
Here is the Joey Bag featured in:
Mod Earth (right)
Red Stripey (back left)
Playful Paisley (front top)
Ginger Tile (front bottom)
Had some free time today… so I took advantage of it and did a new “montage” of my famous trio!
Reese on top in PINK

I just LOVE how these 3 patterns looked together

This is a test post from 
, a fancy photo sharing thing.
I had a different sort of shoot this week… PRODUCT PHOTOGRAPHY!
My good friend, and cupcake GODDESS, is the proud owner of Bangerang Bake Shop… the original “cupcakes in a jar”.
Not only are they DELICIOUS… but they do take a pretty picture also
Oh, and you HAVE to check out her new Valentines flavors… ummmm, drooling!
So I tried something new this week… .5×7 Stryene prins.
Man, are they worth every penny! They are a firm/hard backing, that your picture is printed on. No need for a frame, just a pretty plate stand and “whala”!
I think this is ny new favorite… and something that I’m going to do on the majority of my personal portraits from now on. They really add that extra professional touch
Precious 14 day old baby “J”! I actaully have a second shoot scheduled with him, as his tummy was troubling him on this first shoot.
He looks quite peaceful here, though.
Here is the 30×40 canvas I had printed for my inlaws, for Christmas.
It turned out more beautiful than I had imagined! All the grandbabies, together! (though of course, my kids are looking at their goofy auntie rather than me -the photographer, lol)
