Thursdays Thought

         I've been sitting here thinking what should I photograph next. We're headed to Hawaii in a matter of days and I'm hoping to be inspired by the vast views of water and tropical nature.  Our daughter Alice is starting to crawl so we're praying she doesn't try to eat too much sand while we're there so I'm pretty sure I'll have many photos to post with a sand filled face on a 6 month old.  Hopefully the volcano is flowing and i'm able to capture that moment. The idea of being in a warm climate again is very exciting and I've been waiting for this moment since the heat went away in September.
        I'll be posting while in Kona, HI and including photographs to match. I cannot forget about Terrific Tuesday.

Suggestion of the day!
        Less is more.  Pack less amounts of clothing and plan diverse outfits that can be joined together.  One pair of shoes that goes with 3 pairs of pants/shorts/skirts, one pair of sandals because we all know we have our favorite pair that gets warn over and over again.  Also, bring a key pair of pants, skirt, and shorts when going to a warm climate and bring multiple shirts and dresses to match. And remember to leave some space in your bag because you know you want to bring some clothes home. Also better to bring less, take home more!

Terrific Tuesdays - Helpful Hints for Photo Shoots

So this is my first tuesday of many to come that will be dedicated to terrific suggestions and information helping you get the most out of your photography shoot.  If you're going to be getting your photos taken whether it be for engagements, children, families or seniors, have a listen and see what would benefit you for the best results.

 Shoe Tips!
It's always best to bring multiples. You want to bring a minimum of two kinds of shoes if not three kinds of shoes.  It is best to bring a pair of boots, heals, and some casual shoes for the women. For the men out there a nice pair of dress shoes, a pair of casual shoes(not sneakers for running) and as a third option a pair of leather sandals or flip flops if it's summer time. Texture is always best, however sometimes it's nice for everyone to also just go barefoot.  Bare feet gives you something different and relaxed to work with.  Children especially look great with bare tosies in the summer.
