Introducing ME!

Putting myself in the” Spotlight” is certainly not typical for me. I usually try to keep the focus on my clients or whatever I may be creating at the time. But to give you a fair introduction, with the help of my dear friend Sarah Kittredge (Kitt Creative) and her talent for capturing the beauty through a camera lens, I decided to give it a shot! I am inspired by photography, so I am sharing my thinly veiled spotlight with Sarah. They say “A picture paints a thousand words”, so my hope is that you can see a little more of me in these photos by Sarah Kittredge , than I can share with you in words.

So allow me to introduce myself through the beautiful medium of photography.

I often feel awkward in front of the camera and most times find reasons I don’t like myself in a photograph. But, Sarah is an amazing person and photographer, able to bring out the best in anyone she photographs! Her easygoing personality and her showering of complements throughout the session made me feel like a model.  She experimented with some playful poses that perhaps show the “dreamer” in me. Yes, I’ve always been a dreamer… my first grade teacher told my mother that she would catch me daydreaming in class. I guess I never stopped.

Sarah has such a talent and knowledge about how lighting works in photography. Her ability to use natural lighting is amazing. Although a bit cloudy that day she was able to use the natural light that flooded the studio. In this photo I sat in front of a picture window draped with white sheers. But, it seems as though I were sitting in the heavenly realms. Beautiful!

I love the timeless look of Black and White photography. Of course these two photos would be on my list of favorites. Maybe it’s my tendency to gravitate to the soft monochromatic tones (the organizer and perfectionist in me). Or the modern artistic nature it brings (my artistic and creative side). Again, Timeless is the word!

I must point out that I am wearing my signature colors brown and turquoise. You will find these colors in my wardrobe, my office décor, and even in my personal creative projects. You may also notice my absolute FAV brown sweater; I could wear it every day of the week. Doesn’t it look cozy! It fit’s every mood…the dress it up days, or just going comfy days!

So there you have it! This is ME folks! Sarah Kittredge, you managed to show more of me through a camera lens than I could have ever imagined! Thank you for sharing your gift/talent with me!
