I just shot the last wedding scheduled for 2011, and I’m not even yet into the off-season. (Off-season? What off-season? I haven’t even blogged half of my weddings & sessions yet. I keep thinking of the piles of work that I need to get done. Oh god, the organizing that needs to happen this winter.)  [...]

 

I just shot the last wedding scheduled for 2011, and I’m not even yet into the off-season. (Off-season? What off-season? I haven’t even blogged half of my weddings & sessions yet. I keep thinking of the piles of work that I need to get done. Oh god, the organizing that needs to happen this winter.)  Despite that, I am already thinking ahead for ideas to keep me creatively challenged throughout the winter and into next year.

I spent a lot of time watching Matthew Jordan Smith on Creative Live this weekend and mulling over my personal inspirations. Even made an emergency run to Michael’s for some new sketching tools. We did a lot these past few days, and went shopping for a lot of new things. Out of everything we bought, Andy accused me of liking my new $1 pencil sharpener the best.

Can you blame me?

A few weeks back, a friend and I went to Phipps Conservatory to escape the winter blues… I absolutely love that place, I could spend hours sitting in the Tropical Forest or living in the Orchid Room. I had actually never particularly cared about Orchids one way or the other, but Phipps is currently running an Orchid and Bonsai show, and I’m a convert. Two weeks later, and I have my own mini potted orchids,  I’m researching the different varieties online, and I want to put large canvases of them up on my walls…

Still waiting for spring, but here are a few lovely buds to hold us over…

February 19th, 2010

I have a small confession to make… I am ready for spring, so ready for spring, I can’t even tell you. I am ready to take my shoes off in the grass and mud, I am ready for the birds to come back, and for the dandelions to terrorize all of the nice staid landscapers, [...]

I have a small confession to make…

I am ready for spring, so ready for spring, I can’t even tell you. I am ready to take my shoes off in the grass and mud, I am ready for the birds to come back, and for the dandelions to terrorize all of the nice staid landscapers, and being able to roll down the car windows.

But! We are supposed to have sunlight this weekend! And in celebration of that, I am sharing some things that make me happy. May we have more of them soon.

 

Happy weekend, ducks!
