Congratulations To The Lucky Winner! Also, I'm counting down til Spring!

Hey everyone! First, I'd like to say a HUGE Congrats to the winner of my first 8x10 Give Away! Thank you all so much for playing, and don't worry, I will love to host another one soon! 

The weather here has been so cold and snowy! You know it's bad when the wind chill brings it to a -25 feel. Just to cold! I have honestly been hibernating indoors lol. 

I've been working more on my Etsy Shop to try to help get some sort of sales, and of course, I wanted to try something new. I decided to make handmade bookmarks and add them in. I'm hoping to make sales with Etsy to still help save and make money to help us build a local business from the bottom up. 



For those who have helped by sharing and visiting, I'd like to say thank you so much! We are hoping the increase will bring us some sales. I'll always stay positive. 

I've always been working on using my own work to design on products while also learning how to do some digital art. ( I'm proud of my camera I created digitally lol). 

Between Etsy, Working on Zazzle, Writing and being a Mom, It's been rough lol. I can't wait for the Spring time so I can enjoy my love of taking pictures of pretty flowers in the bloom and scenery with the warmth of the sun. 

On a personal level, My 6 yr. year old son has lost a bottom tooth today! The best part is, the one right next to it is also very wiggly, so anytime soon it will be two teeth lost! 

Anywho since it's getting late. I hope you guys stop in and say Hello and take a peek in either my Etsy, Zazzle or our regular website. Hope you all have such a lovely evening! 

Things Are In the Making, Find Out How You Can Help!

So today is the day that we grew a pair and did what probably should of done a while ago. We decided to finally put ourselves out there and ask for help from the community. Why?

We want to start this amazing and creative Photography business. What is our biggest goal? Is running a creative Photography and Art Studio.

Tricia is not just a model, not just my best friend for over twenty years, but she is an OUTSTANDING Artist.

We decided to put ourselves out there. We know we have to build from the bottom up, and deal with the legal things on this journey.

We're asking for your help! We created a GoFundMe page to help us boost ourselves and get the ball rolling.

Anything donated will help us with equipment such as Backdrop supplies, lighting and to help with the cost of renting a room and other equipment pieces.

This will help us start small, and build ourselves into a whole lot more. We want to bring something unique and creative with excitement and fun for many. We all have to start some where, right?

Whether you can share with your friends and family or donate, we truly appreciate all the support. Please help by giving us a boost to get things rolling. Thank again for helping in any way you can!

If you'd like to see some of the Photography and it's potential please stop by our Facebook Page Here or you love landscape, macro and beautiful scenery photography: Here

Thank You so much for your time in reading this and for everything! Have a wonderful night everyone!

Planning on a Give Away on Google + !

                                    Planning an Event for  Google+ Users!

Good morning everyone! I hope everyone is staying warm, Unless your on the west coast "cough Derrel Cough". lol. Anyways, I was thinking about doing an event on Google + and would love some feed back. 

I been working hard trying to get my foot in the door, and I thought to myself, "How cool would it be to do a give away so some can see my work?". 

So.. I was thinking to run a give away to 3 lucky winners of a 5x7 photography print. 

So, My question is, How many of you would be interested? I would love to see numbers before going ahead and creating the Event. 



If there are any questions, please don't hesitate to ask :) 

The winners will receive a 5x7 in a Black cardboard easel frame too that can very easily be removed if they wish to frame with a different frame of course.

Tricia measuring out 

Once this costume is done, We will be planning on shooting very soon. She's doing such a fantastic job with it and we are both very excited! 

After Red Riding Hood, She has also been busy working on a Cinderella Costume that we can use. I am so thankful to have a best friend... That can sew, because in all honesty, I can't sew for the life of me. 

One thing I have learned as well, is I think I might try to also do many shoots during play rehearsals, because the cast I have got to know a little bit from going there, they are such a great cast and people! As I have seen the 2 sessions of their rehearsals and get to know the play a little more, they fit them so perfectly well. 

I am so thankful to have these new opportunities in store for me and I am looking forward to keep on going as much as I can. 

The Sisters Rosenweig

So as you can see I been pretty busy, I just have to keep on pushing myself to keep moving forward, but lots of fun and new people to meet along my journey! 

I'd like to take this time to say Thank You  to everyone who's been a part of this whole journey . 

An update on my Brother: 

He is home still recovering and unable to work but he is keeping in great spirit during his healing process. He is still unable to work, with no income coming in yet. I still have a GoFundMe campaign going on for him. 

I feel bad because I wish I could help him, but I can't until I start making sales. If anybody would like to donate to his GoFundMe account, I know the both of us would so be greatful. (He doesn't know I'm running this for him, I'd love to be able to surprise him after, and plus he's stubborn) 

His GoFundMe link is : http://www.gofundme.com/5nwq6s

My brother has always been a hard worker, worked as a carpenter all his life, and this has greatly put a burden on him. and I'm trying my best. 

Thanks everyone for reading, and I hope you all enjoy my journey as much as I am! Thanks for sticking around with me! 

Going in Two Directions, Focusing on the Same Thing

Hello everyone! First I'd like to say, Happy Thursday! Can you believe Turkey Day is in a week? Where has the time gone too? 

Anyways, I have some great updates that I'd love to share with you guys! Everyone who has been reading my blog knows how I have been running my Etsy Shop. I'm sure many know, How I wanted to "expand" myself into working on more things. 

I thought it would be a great idea to be able to offer my photography work on items, and that is exactly what I am doing! 

So now, I am running 2 different shops, even though they are both involving the same things. Now I can create and design my work onto many things such as mugs, cards, post cards, pillows and more! 

So, On Etsy, I will have my digital downloadable images along with a few Photography Prints 

Then I will have my Zazzle Shop which will have my work created on many different things! I can also make and customize anything you'd like if you'd like me too! 

Browse other gifts from Zazzle.





So if you're looking for Gifts for the Holidays feel free to stop on by! 

I'm also going to be practicing on some Digital Art as well to make even more patterns and more for cards and so on. 

I know running two shops, with 2 complete different places sounds a little crazy, But I am hoping they will compliment each other and have it work out the best.

Thanks for reading guys and I hope to hear from many!

News and Updates! A little bit of everything and a Thank You!

Good day everyone! I hope everyone had a wonderful Wednesday! Tonight I would like to share some fun things I have done recently. 

For a start, I had the wonderful opportunity to go to a dress rehearsal for a play called "The Sisters Rosenweig". The cast were pretty amazing and with many fun personalities! I went there to do some photo shoots for them to use. I know the play is going to be great. 

Those who know me know I don't do a lot of photography with people so this was a great opportunity for me and a great experience. 

Here is a sneak peek at one of the photo's from the dress rehearsal, during their rehearsal. :) 

So on some more news, I finally have some prints on hand! I put in an order for some 5x7's to start out with. When a picture is sold, they will be sent inside of a cardboard easel frame with a black border. 

I have a few I have recently listed in my Etsy shop, but if you do see one that you would like to purchase, and is not in Etsy yet, please feel free to shoot me a message. You can still order through me personally, I accept PayPal! If you also see one but would like it in a different size, I can also order those for you (I don't have other size frames yet though). 

I been trying really hard to push my  name and my work out there. I even started to list on Ebay as well as Etsy and might make a store front for my website. (Maybe). It's been pretty hectic, a lot of images and just so much work but I am very dedicated and optimistic. 

I would like to give a big Thank You to everyone who has been sharing and showing support. A lot of people who know me know I enjoy what I do and I do take a lot of pride into my work. This is probably something I have been so focused on and working on for a long time and I wouldn't have made it this far if it wasn't for my friends and family and fans. You guys are a huge motivation to me so I deeply Thank You for that! 

I plan making short term goals, and continue to strive and work on them into my long term goals. So my short term goals, is pretty much selling my work. I am hoping for the month of November and December, to sell at least 10 Photo's.. Whether it's an instant download, or a print. I don't think 10 is a bad idea for 2 months, right? lol. 

So cheers to everyone here! I hope everyone has a wonderful evening/night as it's almost my son's bed time here lol
