I’m in my last semester of school, I am taking a course about color theory. While it is proving to be very challenging and more time consuming (and not to mention expensive) than I expected, [Read more…]
Home Depot Photo Session | 4 Year Old Pictures
Today is my baby girl’s birthday. This girl is a ball of sweetness, courage, sass and just the best. I can’t imagine our family without her. She constantly tells us to “be brave like Wonder Woman”. She will cup my face with her hands or throw her arm around my shoulder and say “I just want to keep you forever”. She also is super independent, determined and so creative. She loves to come to work with me and to build things. Her favorite store is The Home Depot. Seriously, how cute is that? On July 4, I told my husband I had to go to Home Depot and she gasped so loud and said “Home Depot?!?” and she had to come with me. I like to get photos of my kids around their birthday, at the very least, so I can see how they’ve grown. This year we decided to have a Home Depot Photo Session for her 4 Year Old Pictures.
Diorama – A Constructed Photograph
Recently I sought to construct a photograph, meaning that I controlled every aspect of the scene. Diorama – A Constructed Photograph was the goal. Alabamian’s say you MAKE pictures, ie, “I’m going to have my pictures made”. I laughed when I first heard that; to me you TAKE pictures. Honestly, call it whatever you like, I won’t judge but this project brought some understanding to what it means to make a picture.

Senior Pictures Birmingham, AL // Jo
I’m thankful for Snapchat! I’ll be honest, I don’t even really know how to use it… but it’s brought me closer to someone important to me. My little sister is 15 years younger than me. That’s a big age difference! Combine that with our physical distance of living on other sides of the country, it’s sometimes hard to stay connected to my siblings. We’ve been working on it though and I invited my sister to come out to visit us. This cool teenage kid decided she wanted to spend her spring break with me and my family. How sweet is that? The trip was awesome and I really enjoyed getting to know her better. While she was in town, we checked out Breakout Birmingham (so fun!), went to the zoo, McWane, it was just great. We also made time for two photo sessions around Birmingham, AL to capture some senior pictures of her. She’s not really a senior yet but still, it was a fun excuse to capture her.

DIY 5 Minute No Sew Headband
This is an updated post of my most popular post ever! The crazy thing is I almost didn’t even post it because I thought, it’s too easy but I’m glad so many people have found it helpful. There have been a lot of comments and messages with questions and requests for a video tutorial – which I’ve never done before. I do videos for my full time day job sometimes but never really for my site but I was excited to try it out. Plus my daughter’s head has grown so it was time to get new ones made.
These are really inexpensive and easy to make so they would make some fun gifts for family or friends. You can see the original post here.
