Welcome

Thanks for visiting my blog! I am a newborn, child, & family photographer in Bakersfield, California. I am also mom to 2 gorgeous little girls and a part time L&D nurse. It's a busy life, but I wouldn't change it.

Redecorating!

When we moved into this house almost 5 years ago I realized I suddenly had a lot of walls to fill.  At the time I wasn't doing photography, in fact all I had was a Kodak point and shoot camera, but I loved pictures!  So I decided to take some pictures that I had of Emma, convert them to black and white, put them in certificate frames, and put them as a grouping of 4 in this little cut out I have in the hall.  Here is what it looks like...





Except my walls aren't so yellow.  Anyway, this grouping is kinda small for this space and the pictures were printed on my inkjet printer so they are turning pink... oh and all of them are of Emma, because Sophia wasn't born yet.  So, it's time to redo them.  I'm keeping it as a grouping of 4 except they will be larger prints so this little cove is filled up more.  I decided I still want to keep the theme of them being one year old,  So I re-edited (tried to fix) 2 of these pictures and I am adding 2 of Sophia at one year old. This is what I have....










I still wanted to keep with the black & white look... and the candidness (is that a word?) instead of something formal because I want to remember these faces just like this, forever.    Since I already have a standout mount up, I need something else.  So I was thinking of having these printed on metallic paper as float wraps.  Float wraps are really cool thin wraps that have a 3/4 inch block attached to the back so the picture sticks out from the wall and gives the appearance of floating.  And metallic photo paper is, well, awesome.  Especially for black & white prints.  Once I have it up, I'll post pictures of it.  Any opinions before I place the order?
