Collage Art
Here I was trying to capture the beauty of this house, along with all its unique details. This house has more of an artsy, classic french feel. I was sort of thinking i was carrying that through with this collage. I made the images sepia, and old looking in a way, with the edging. I photographed each of these images on different occasions of visiting the beautiful house - and visiting people who live here. No, i didn't just sneak onto their lawn and go to town with my camera. Their house is amazing inside and out. They love art, and it shows.

American Girl
Here is a little taste of some of what I do at the studio. Last week we photographed 60 or 70 little girls dressed up as their American Girl dolls. American Girl is a doll line that is popular with little girls. They can get dolls that look like them, and buy outfits that are the same as the dolls outfits. There is a fundraiser group here that puts on a fashion show of the girls in the outfits with the matching dolls. We photograph them in our studio as part of the fundraiser. It gets crazy when there are 5 little girls in here at once!! Especially when we have to deal with all 5 girls at a time, and their crazy moms! Each girl gets a 15 minute session, so its a great exercise to sharpen your studio skills with posing, lighting, and coming up with ideas. I made this collage to showcase some of my faves.
