1 Waiting for Santa

I decided this year to try something different. Instead of cookies and milk, I left myself decked out in holiday finery for Santa. He can see for himself what a good girl I have been 😉

If you are looking for a lovely winter-themed sim to visit, do check out Let It Snow! It is a beautifully-done winter location created by Milly Sharple, perfect for a stroll, a snuggle or a dance.

Merry Christmas to all of my readers. You have come to be my friends and family. I hope you have a wonderful holiday season, and Santa was good to you, whatever you left out for him on his journey.

Just Another Update

1 Gift Card Blank Aug 2014 small

You may (or may not) have noticed that I have a link to my Marketplace store on the sidebar of my blog. That’s where you can go to pick up a gift card for my photography services (and my one lone, sad pose). I have just updated my gift cards, so there is a brand new image gracing my gift cards!

What prompted this change? Well, in addition to the fact the photo was outdated, I hadn’t changed my prices since I started doing photography work. I have increased my prices, but from the research I have done I am still below the industry standard.

I didn’t do this lightly; I really take photos more for love than money, but the reality is that my real life is much busier these days. I feel that I have improved over the past year-and-a-half plus I have been in business and my time is more valuable. I will put in the hours (yes, it takes me hours to do the shoot and post-processing) to make sure anyone who chooses me is happy with the final result or I will offer a reshoot. You may not be able to buy happiness, but I will do my damnedest to brighten your day.

Now if I could just figure out what text in my description forces my maturity rating from General to Moderate!

In The Light Of Their Love

1 Cheri & Tim_024

It has been a while since I blogged any client work. It’s not that I don’t want to show it off; it’s just that I usually have other things to blog and don’t get around to doing it.

A couple of days ago I took photos for a special couple. If you regularly read my blog comments, you will be familiar with the witty and lovely Cheri. She has been following my blog for a while and when she and her sweetheart, Tim, were partnered, she gave me the honour of taking their photographs.

They were a dream couple to work with. Not only did they know which poses they wanted (and told me in advance), they had their outfits ready for quick changes – a major time saver. And they are delightful – funny, sweet and obviously in love.

I have to say the lead photo is one of my all-time favourite photos I have done. The picture stars aligned, I got a great shot and I was inspired when processing. I am normally hyper-critical of my own work, but I am very proud of this one.

1 Cheri & Tim_037

This one is a little more formal, but I like the way that Tim is watching over Cheri – obviously with adoration.

I enjoyed my time with Cheri and Tim. They were attentive, relaxed and fun to be around. I wish them happiness and may the light of their love never fade.
