Nicole Maternity

My first ever maternity shoot <3

I have no words. I'm simply so excited for Nicole and her baby and honored to document this time in her life.

Fill the Frame

I was in Michael's the other day, and I found a very beautiful, decently sized frame. It's probably 20'' on the short side, but I forget the exact dimensions. I also bought a bunch of silk flowers while at Michael's. This is all on top of having recently purchased a 5' mirror from a friend ($20) and that beautiful sheer dress from Target ($27).

So, inspired by this beautiful empty frame I had to do a shoot with some of my new props.

The difference between the above and below images is simply that the ones below were shot through a (kind of dirty) 5' tall mirror.

Here's my big, big problem for you to help me solve: Which one is the best?

The images are numbered. Comment below which one you think should go in the frame (or maybe I'll print multiple? but then I need more frames!)

Laurel

Yesterday, I got to meet up with my favorite food stylist, Laurel (@sweetlaurelblog). This woman is such a peach. She always brightens my day.

I also recently acquired a very large mirror (very excited about this!) and the dress from target from the last post. I was taking some iPhone selfies. I may or may not spend today making a series of classical portraits if they were selfies ;)

Best wardrobe week ever...

I saw this floral button down and had a little flashback to last spring when everything I shot was floral. It's still a theme in my photography as a whole, but it used to be most of what inspired me.

I also got some incredible red lipstick from my sister for my birthday. So, thank you, Lane.

I was also having a rough day this week and decided to buy myself something impulsively. 

I got this beautiful dress at Target.

Of. All. Places.

It is currently adorning my dress form in my bedroom where I can walk past it and smile every day.
