Inspiration | O’ Natural

I love pretty things, new things, unique things, handmade things, colorful things, thoughtful things, just things. I wish I was a bagillionaire so I could get all the things I want. Not everything I love is expensive, but I love a lot. I love catalogs, just browsing, getting inspired and seeing the texture, color palettes, and style. I love magazines, for the very same reasons…even a simple advertisement can get my attention for quite some time. I LURVE Etsy. I check on the site many many times a day just to see what is on the front page. As I browse, I favorite sellers, and “things” in hopes that one day I can get it all. Since the economy is the economy, and I keep adding onto my business, it is not quite the time for me to be able to get these things.

So I have decided to start sharing the things I find. In hopes I can live vicariously through those of you that may get some of these delicious things, and to help spread the word for some amazing vendors and lots of cool finds and goodies. Because I am a crafter/seamstress/artist, and I believe strongly in helping small business I will be showing mostly handmade things. But I will add in items from some of my favorite labels and stuff as well.

Also, these same things are inspirations to my photgraphy and all would be perfect styling ideas for your future sessions.

Enjoy, and be sure to leave comments…I love reading what you think of my posts!       Click the images to see more info!

Bright & Early | Arlington & Fredericksburg Child & Family Photography

No this was not in Arlington…so those of you secretly hoping the field you see here is up there somewhere…not gonna happen! You are going to have to venture down to my neck of the woods to get a taste of these delicious wild grown fields just like this young family did.

This most gorgeous Mama and her little glowing 2 year old boy were a true delight to work with. Although we were damp to nearly our bums, I think facing the morning dew was well worth this light. Personally I have not seen this particular field glow like this…and it has been a visual feast going through these images! I could post the entire session, but I have to save some for the gallery! I just may have to post this one again down the road!
