New in the shop

Steampunk stitcheries! Framed and ready to hang. I have wanted to make these for a while now, I am working on a few more with different styles but the same color scheme so that they will look great in a set.

Happy Friday!

Update

Oh MAN. I told myself that I would be dedicated to updating this thing almost every day, but I have been doing terrible this past couple weeks! I have good excuses, though. Some old friends of mine were married two weekends ago, and I shot their wedding in New Port beach. (sneak peak..they are so FREAKIN adorable!)



It was a beautiful ceremony. Things on my part could have gone alot smoother, but I AM a newbie to this. I could not have done it without my wonderful boy, who thank goodness, did not dump me on the side of the road 800 miles from home out of frustration. :) It was like Photog-zilla (instead of Bride-zilla...) This was his treat for putting up with me.



SO, now it's back to the day to day, and between editing and homework I haven't blogged on this thing.

BUT, my shop was in dire need of an update so here 'tis!


I have been meaning to make more Camera totes in different colors since they seem to be everyones' faves.

(pssst..These lil' guys want homes too!)

Odd Wishlist

When I was flipping through my dad's dental technician magazine I spotted this horrifically stunning sculpture by dental tech Luke Kahng. It's so creepy! So I placed a note by the picture stating that I wanted one just like it, you know, for photographic purposes. But, it would be very expensive and time consuming for my dad to make. I think I would be asking for too much. ;)



A Dionaea muscipula, or Venus Fly trap! You can even find one on Etsy! I have wanted one of these since like, 5th grade science class, and I STILL don't think I am old enough to care for one properly. haha






Really awesome plugs by One Tribe organics. I LOVE this carved stuff, it's beautiful! But, the more detail, the bigger. :/



A Uroplatus phantasticus, or a Satanic Leaftail Gecko. Native to Madagascar. I am not sure where you can buy these guys. Isn't he just PRECIOUS??[photo credit- Thor Hakonson]

If anyone reading this has something unusual they want, do share!

Sweet bracelet by ibwatson. I was so ridiculously excited to find this guy on Etsy, making these at a reasonable price. I have been checking back in hopes to find a piece tiny enough for my bony wrist, but nothing yet...


Cute camera case by Hine. I wish my SLR would fit in one of these!



Bowl by CircaCeramics. Man I love this stuff!




Stitching by MoxieDoll. CUTE!!



Tee by LadyLotus This was carved out of linoleum and printed onto the shirt for only $14!! Seriously?? I have to pick up one of these.



Brooch by Yaelfran. The lil' gal now comes in blonde- I am glad I snatched up a brunette earlier! ;D

These portraits by Jack Radcliffe are absolutely beautiful. He didn't put his daughter in a studio with backgrounds and lights, instead he photographed her as she was throughout her life. These candid shots make these moments that much more intimate.
