little madelyn is about to be four and is having a pink pirate party, so of course her mom emailed me (as i have done a few invites for little miss madelyn and her little sister in the past). i had an existing design that we tweaked a little to come up with this:

a princes makeover invitation: custom design just for b

as a mom, and a designer, it gives me great joy to get to see other little ones growing up. little brantliegh is close to my daughter's age, so it is a little more special to have been able to "watch" her grow the last three years. next month this little princess is turning 5 and having a special princess make-over party with her friends and to celebrate, her mom asked for a custom design just for her. incorporated into the design are all things girlie and even a little dressed up doll designed after the little princess herself.

here are 3+ years of little brantliegh growing up . . .

happy birthday brantleigh and thank you traci!!

magical tutu princess party invitations

what little girl doesn't want to be a princess. and how many of those little girls want a princess party? we did this for my daughter's birthday, we had a princess theme and i had tutus, wands and crowns waiting for every little girl. they were all so excited and staying up for nights on end making everything was worth it. after that event, the awesome girl who helped me make all those things has now been making tutus for ther little girls for the past 8 months. her store is almost complete! she has tutus of all colors and will customize a single princess tutu or an entire party bundle just for you.

here is just a sneak peek and what she can do and an invite I can customize to match your own magical party (invite will be in my store next week!)

see her store here at tutusandbeijo.com

custom butterfly announcement

sometimes you have the perfect photo and you can not find the perfect announcement to go with it. it is those times that you want an announcement the compliments your photo perfectly... so, why not ask? depending upon the complexity of the work and how much of a backlog i have, i usually can customize an announcement to be perfect for you. occasionally the work involved may incur an additional design fee for the time, but i would never charge without letting you know. so, have a question? want to know if i can match something? just ask, katie's mom did and look how her's turned out :)

spring is here

and i have been busy... thank you to all my new customers and another thank you to all my past customers that keep coming back for more. you all rock!!

my ever revolving style: custom photo birth announcements

lateley, i am all about textures and layers and whimsy fun. here is a sneak peak at some new designs i am coming up with!!

Custom photo announcements: what is your nursery theme?

i already have a couple of announcements that i have made to match my customers nursery, but want just a couple more to design as options. so help me out here you expecting or new moms, what is your favorite nursery theme?

taking the best pictures: turn OFF that flash

so so often, i get emails from customers saying. "here is the info, i am going to try and take a picture tonight." I read that and the photographer in me cringes just a little. "no no no" i think, "don't wait until tonight." because the BEST lighting for photos is natural light, sunlight, but not direct light. and the best time for outdoor photos is before sunset, what we call "the golden hour." your skin tones and all-around lighting and colors will be the best with the light that comes from outside! you can use this light either inside by a large window (sliding door, etc) or going outdoors in what we call "open shade" this can be under a big tree or in the garage with the door open. do not try and take photos in full sun, not only will your child look away and/or squint but you will get un-equal lighting and harsh shadows.

8x10 keepsake prints!

add an 8x10 print of your announcement or invitation for just 6.99 ($3 shipping) in my store (http://www.autumns-creek.com/)!!! these are the perfect size for framing and they also make great gifts for grandparents or godparents when ordering a baptism invite!!

remembering Ava

a few years ago, when i got "into" photography, i joined flickr. it is basically a photo sharing site, but so much more. through this site, i was able to learn so so much about photography, aperture, composition, shutterspeed.... actions, post-processing, cropping and so much more. however, the best thing i have taken away from my experience on flickr are my "contacts" my friends. these people inspire me daily, laugh with me and cry with me. it is through flickr that I came across sheye. she is a photographer in Australia and is a mom... a mom to 4, one of which is in heaven. today is the 3rd anniversary of the day a tragic accident took the life of her 3 year old daughter ava, aka "super princess." on flickr, is is tradition to post photos in memory of ava on this day of all things pink and mostly pink balloons. being as i am rarely prepared and would honestly be oh so sad to try and take a photo of a pink balloon, i drew one...

here is my tribute to miss Ava.

please take a moment to read Ava's memorial here
