Hey Ya'll,
I hope you guys had a Fabulous Love Day! Zane and I slept in, went to see the Lego movie, which is adorable, did some shopping, then enjoyed a quiet night at home!
On Friday I shared our Valentine's Day shoot, be sure to check it out here if you missed it! I wanted to show yall how everything came together for this impromptu shoot, in hopes that it may inspire you to pull together something of your own for some fun!
It all started with these $3.09 cupcakes from target! As soon as i saw these simply sweet treats, I knew they had to be photographed!
One of the projects I did was spray painting this chair. I picked these up from the side of a dumpster, and knew they would be fine with a coat of spray paint! Who cares if the entire seat was split in two pieces? No problem! Before & after!!
I picked up this picture frame & these two candle sticks from my favorite store- none other than Target! I purchased a handful of different items to try, and returned them after only using the ones pictures. Its good to have options!
Carrie brought a slew of outfits, but ultimately just loved the simple tutu :) Again, its always good to have options.
The table pictures is one a friend of mine picked up from the side of the road. This two has a large split in the top, so its not very functional, but I knew that wood would be perfect for pictures!
lastly I picked up the balloons from Party City and I absolutely loved them!
While perusing Target Monday evening, I came across the cutest little pink cupcakes and instantly knew they needed to come home with me!
When you combine cupcakes, balloons, a pink chair and an adorable toddler in a pink tutu- you are bound to capture something cute!!
Special thanks to the Peterson's who are always up for anything, and are so patient while I try to figure this whole camera language out. Bradli was a pro as always! Four cupcakes later, she was on a sugar high ;)
- Happy Valentines Day -
Go celebrate love today.
Our good friends Kurt & Carrie were staying with us about a month ago. One day we grabbed Bradli, a quilt, pearls and made magic.. okay fine not magic but look at her!! She was the perfect model and I can't wait to do it again. Carrie, what's next?! If you missed my previous post on Carrie and Bradli, check it out here.
I used my Nikon D7000 with a 50mm lens. I have a long ways to go as far as learning about my camera. But the bright side is that you can always try, and there is no harm done! Do you have a fancy camera that you don't know how to use? Just grab it and put it to use, you never know what might turn out! On this day I learned that its good to go with the flow. This was unplanned, but we wanted to make the most out of a great day and a pretty baby! I love getting to witness the bond that Carrie & Bradli share and hope one day I will be blessed with the same opportunity.
No matter what type of camera you have, get out there and capture life's little moments while you can :)
