tattoos and photographs

Chloe took this as we were leaving Michelle's studio the other day, I like it a lot.  I may print it for her room, it's kinda dreamy.

She got a henna tattoo while I got my brows threaded the other day.  We left there feeling pretty fancy.
I snapped some pictures over bagels before school before the henna started to fade.

anchor ornaments

Here's a quickie craft I made for our tree this year.  Anchors from the craft store, a little acrylic paint, quickie glue pen (one of my favorite craft tools) and some fine glitter.  The clear glaze isn't necessary, but helpful to keep all that glitter in place for years to come.  

sunday morning.

My friend, Marisa let me know in passing she had an idea for a Christmas card photo, and asked if I could come over one morning.  I agreed.  I'll admit I feared matching pajamy-jams when I hung up the phone.  Apparently I have a fear of matching jammies?  I should have more faith in my friends.  

Because these are exactly the kind of photos I like to take.  Thanks for letting me spend Sunday morning with you, next time I'll bring doughnuts.

Here is a little peek into her adorable studio.  I'm not sure how the winner is going to make up their mind. I took pictures of everything I want, and my girl modeled a few for me.
