Ten on Tuesday | Rhode Island Family Photography
I am slipping a few announcements in here so read carefully!!
1. First, if you have an awesome nursery and a baby between 5-11 months old, you will WANT to check back tomorrow for an exciting announcement. Promise!! And even if you are not in the area, you will still want to check back because you might still be able to play.
2. I finally uploaded my picture of the Bellani display. Ignore the quality – this is an iPhone pic 🙂 I will get back in there with the camera at some point! The prints on the left are 24×36 gallery wrapped canvases with a 15×30 gallery wrapped in between them. Then on the right, the left and right images are 20×30 canvases and the top and bottom images are 24×24. LOVE it!!! Covered window in between the two.
3. I just learned that SuperBowl photographers carry an average of $30,000 of equipment around their necks while shooting the game. I am now drooling with jealousy and want to be a superbowl photographer. Of course I don’t know if they would let me have the cart I would need to carry all of that – that stuff’s heavy!! I always point out the equipment to Matt when we are watching. Just what he wants, I am sure, as he is trying to concentrate on what is going on in the game. 😉
4. On that note, if you watched the Superbowl, how awesome was that game? Unless of course you were a Colts fan. This was the first year in MANY that we were not at a Superbowl party or hosting one. It was a nice change though. I found myself cheering for the Saints because they had never won even though I also liked the Colts. But THIS moment with Drew Brees made the entire thing worthwhile. I dare you to watch it and not get a little tear in your eye. No clue how long this will be on the internet because I am sure CBS will pull it, but it is so adorable.
5.The first Get Manual workshop was this past Saturday and I had a GREAT TIME!! We had nine participants and while my children screamed played in the basement with Matt, we got a good deal done! Lots of talking, lots of practicing, pretty perfect! I have decided that I am going to do another one, I am just settling on a date. But it will definitely be in March.
6. I am announcing special North Carolina sessions! I will be in state from March 29-April 2 so if you would like some family photos done, contact me for information! Sessions will be available in Winston, Greensboro and the Triangle areas as well as possibly Charlotte. I have no idea if I will book one, ten or none, so let me know if you’re interested! As a side note, I am always available for a travel session! If you don’t live near Providence but would like a session, you can always ask.
7. Just to prove that Layne DOES cry. This is what I got after I told her that no, she could not hit the camera. She has developed quite the little attitude recently, and has decided she does not like to be told NO. About anything. And why yes, I DO take pictures of my kids melting down and I’m sorry, I just cannot help but laugh at this series!!!!! I think it’s the bottom left one that really gets me.
8. Have I mentioned that a Cupcake Shop opened right down the street from me? Literally, around a corner and down the street. Every morning on the way to take Nolan to school I drive past the steamed up windows of the shop and imagine the deliciousness that tempts me inside. We have eaten a few different ones and they are wonderful. My favorite is the red velvet, Matt loved the Grasshopper. And as a bonus each cupcake is a little work of art. No slathered on frosting here – they are perfectly decorated with adorable little designs. Extra nice for us, she carries both a vegan cupcake AND uses no egg in her chocolate cupcakes. And to just totally top it all off, she also does cakes. YUMM-O!!!!! I *almost* stopped by to get one…you know…for the sake of photos for the blog 😉 But I resisted. Maybe next week for Valentine’s Day I’ll do a special feature.
9. Want to ask me a question? Anything at all? Well, now you can! Just click HERE. It’s totally anonymous if you want it to be so ask away, I’d love to answer! Of course keep it appropriate. My mother is watching.
10. One more from my last newborn. I just edited this today and oh my goodness I just want to squish the cheeks!! Have I mentioned I LOVE newborns??? And I have another one sometime in the next two weeks – a little boy so I get my wish to use my cocoon and hat!!!!
Annnnnd that’s all. Make sure to check back tomorrow!!
