Self portrait day and printables day!

Hello everyone! I hope everyone had the chance to stand up for their internet today!! Remember if we don't make a stand, our internet won't be OUR internet anymore. But now on to friendlier subjects. I am getting into the whole printable thing. I've been working on a custom project for a friend locally to print, and will share later when I receive the actual standout. These are really neat as home decor, and seem to be the rage! I'm totally into it, and love making them! So if you want a custom project done, just comment with a quote you'd like to see.

Today was a self portrait day. I never take the time to really photograph myself. And I wanted some nice, quick and natural looking. Just saying "Hello." I mainly like the black and white ones, along with the sepia toned ones. I'll add one colored one just to show what the colors were.
Bah. If you are all wondering, I am wearing Princess Mimi Sesame Grey circle lenses. I wish I could take credit for those beauties! The giant ring is from Sarah Sellz, a local purse, jewelry and accessories seller. She has the cutest stuff all the time!
I don't know if I introduced my new family member, but here it goes! Drumroll please!




Baxter!


Oh my goodness how I love him! Zac and I finally decided to get a puppy! And we love him so much! He is around ten weeks old, and a wire haired fox terrier mix. He is so long and fluffy!

He is already crate trained, and we had him potty trained by the second day! The Effingham Animal Rescue Sanctuary (E.A.R.S.) is a great program that fosters dogs until they find their forever home. And the ladies do a lot of work with these dogs! If it wasn't for their time and love, I wouldn't have found this perfect little puppy!





I'm sure you've had enough of the picture overload of Baxter, but I can't pick a favorite to show! He is the best!!!

I am also excited for my two sessions this Friday and Saturday! Valentine's Day themes are exploding in my brain right now! Two new props should be coming in this week, and will be perfect! Until then, I'm probably going to rest! This new puppy is wearing me out!

First blog post!! Hoorah!

I finally got this thing UP!!! It took me all night!! For all of those who are new to my work, welcome! And those who aren't and are just interested in seeing neat photos of just whatever I take (whether it be actual photography work, or just having fun with the animals and scenery!) thanks for coming around and reading what I have to say! I decided to finally go up that next step! I like networking with other photographers, but I just don't know that many, and hopefully this will be an open door. So here is to future friends, clients and fans! I will be sure to post more tomorrow! Right now I have a boyfriend and puppy to cuddle up next to. And what better way to end the night than watching Game of Thrones!
