POSE FOR BOWS sneak peek and product preview!

I have to say this has been one of my FAVORITE portrait parties ever!  It was so fun to get all the neat products, it was like Christmas!  Thanks to all those that attended and your products are ALL to die for!  So without further ado … here’s the pics and the products!

This first little group of darlings belong to Lorraine Hunt, a very talented quilter.  She brought me the CUTEST baby quilt (the backing is minky!)  You can see the quilt in the picture with all four girls (scroll down a few) I used it for a prop :) Thanks Lorraine and I am sure I will be contacting you again for more!  If you are interested in contacting Lorraine about her darling quilts, email me and we’ll get ya the details.

Next is a group of FOUR girls (oldest age 3!) aren’t they dolls!  Their talented mother Alexis Hicks makes these classy vintage bows/headbands (I LOVE the feathers!) to contact Alexis about purchasing bows email her at lexielou67@hotmail.com (quilt in picture is the one I got from Lorraine).

Next we have the darling little trio from the talented Hailey Sant.  Her bows are so cute and unique, I love the fabric flowers!  To contact Hailey about ordering email her at haileysant@hotmail.com

Now, how can I properly introduce the CUTEST KIDS CLOTHES EVER!  (Hopefully that will do!)  Stephanie Rasband with PEPPERGRASS CLOTHING makes these custom clothes/ties to fit your needs!  I am so excited to get mine~you know there will be pictures to follow!  You MUST check her out (click on the link to visit her site).

This next group of cuties I have had the pleasure of photographing before (during the Secretly Spoiled photo shoot) so you KNOW they are darling!  They brought me the motherload of bows, flowers, headbands and hats!  My kids may go hungry but they will never go un-accessorized again!  You can view their darling products online at LADY BUGS & LILACS and you really should!

Next we have the mastermind behing ROCK THESE BOWS, Tia Pendleton.  Her stuff is so darling!  My 12 year old is in love!  Check her stuff out for a unique twist on the typical hair bow/flower, you won’t regret it!

and last, but certainly not least, we have Jennifer Mosley with MO’S BOWS, she has a HUGE (and I mean huge) variety of bows, flowers, hats, pettiskirts (aren’t the cheetah ones divine?) and car seat covers.  I had the hardest time choosing my trade, but finally made some decisions (thank heavens for mesquitos or I would have lingered forever!)

Thanks to all that participated, it was a great time.  I think next year I will do another trade party, it will probably be open ended then, so watch for that and work on your “skills”.

Secretly Spoiled Photo Shoot …

What a fun day yesterday was!  I got to spend it with some great gals (thanks interns) some DARLING girlies (the cutest!) and racks and racks of cute clothes!  Talk about good Times.  To celebrate I couldn’t stand not rushing home and playing with the images.  The location was great, the company/clothing superb and the girls … really what more can I say!  So without further ado…here’s the sneak peek from the SECRETLY SPOILED clothing line photo shoot #1.
