Category Archives: Vintage We are beginning to settle into our Fall schedule. September will be a busy month for me – Gabrielle is starting preschool (when did my baby girl grow up?), and I am working on a few new projects for my little shop. So this month, I’ll be posting mostly images and minimal words while I...  I was born and raised in Southwest Louisiana, not far from the Gulf. In fact, my parents and most of my family still live in there. I attended college in New Orleans – the people, culture, and food are like no other place in the world. Simply put, I am proud to call Louisiana home. Louisiana...  “Love is the master key, which opens the gates of happiness.” ~Oliver Wendell Holmes  Gabrielle presented me with this beautiful pink flower for Mother’s Day! She decorated the pot with heart stickers, and I couldn’t have asked for a better gift. She knows how much I love flowers! I also received this beautiful, handmade vintage card from my mother: She is so creative and talented – and I have...  I am so inspired my mother’s vintage books. She has a quite a collection, and I definitely feel like I am capturing a piece of history!  Music expresses that which cannot be said and on which it is impossible to be silent. ♬ ~ Victor Hugo ********** Thanks so much for all of your well wishes from my previous post!  I’ll be taking a blogging break for a while – I’m going to spend some quality time with my family for the holidays – I’m sure you will be doing the same! You’ll probably find me here during my time off. Also, my shop will remain open during this time. I’m truly looking forward to 2010 –...  I feel much more comfortable behind the camera than in front of the camera. One of the challenges of being the photographer at family events is that I am rarely in pictures – this is something that I’m going to work on in 2010!  I hope that you have a wonderful weekend, my friends. P.S. Don’t forget to enter my special holiday giveaway – drawing will be held on Saturday, December 12!  My love affair with polaroid cameras continues. Please welcome the newest member of my camera family. Not sure if I will be able to find film to use with this Polaroid land camera. In the meantime, I’m happy just admiring it! ++++++++++ Don’t forget to sign up for my newsletter – December issue will be...  “Photography is a way of feeling, of touching, of loving. What you have caught on film is captures forever…. it remembers little things, long after you have forgotten everything.” ~ Aaron Siskind  Sometimes I forget that what we call “vintage” was once brand new. I love the story it tells, the journey it has been on, the hands it has passed through…. +++++++++++++++ Please visit Yvette and I over at One Inspiration, Two Perspectives today!  The start of November proves to be quite busy for me – how about you? Find me this week over on Flickr for ‘Roid week ’09! I’ll be posting a polaroid each day this week on my stream (and you may see a couple here as well)! Also, did you get a chance to sign... |
