I can't Believe its been 18 Months already!

Lilly is such a big girl now, she is so beautiful and loving. I wish I could freeze frame and save the images I see everyday. I know I will cherish the "Oh" face Pictures I have caught and the Mischief face! These I see several times every day!

Busy week At Holly Creek Studio

We have had another busy week at Holly Creek Studio... My friend Jocelyn Had a beautiful new baby girl last week so she brought both of her sweet little girls out to the Studio Thursday. We took a lot of super cute portraits of them. Baby K was so alert and was liking all of the flashing. Which was happening frequently because she was so cute and adorable... I was having to much fun. I couldn't wait to upload the portraits to the website. Here are a few of them! 

Wild days at HCS!

What fun we have had at Holly Creek Studio the last few days! We have taken Bunny pictures, Sr Portraits, Family Portraits and Southern Girl Portraits. The Bunny felt loved and the Sr. was excited about a surprise! I have edited hundreds of portraits and gotten the Holly Creek Studio website up and running! I feel proud of these accomplishments and hopeful for the next couple of weeks. I have several prom sessions and get to try out all my props for a newborn session! It's fun to be excited about working hard! I love photography!!!!

Being a grandma is all Encompassing! First 2 weeks

This has been and exciting year. On January 27th 2012 my first grand baby Lilly Grace was born! she is the most beautiful Gift God has ever given me. I Love her dearly. I have enjoyed photographing her through out her first year and i have spent countless hours hunting adorable poses, props and outfits. She is the most adorable model... I have decided to start a small photography studio here on the farm.I spent the day today cleaning out or family business' extra offices to house the studio. The lighting setup has been staring at me for a week... all lined up in my back entrance where I unpacked it. I am so excited to get it set up and start using it. for now I have been taking portraits outside. Here are a few pictures of Lilly I have taken through the year. 




Devan and I had a photo shoot to take BL ( before Lilly) pictures about 2 weeks before she arrived. 







We were all ready for her to get here so we could hold and snuggle her! She finally arrived January 27th. 

Papa could not wait to tell everyone the news "Lilly is here!"... He was in the operating room to see her be delivered!

                 
This is a pretty Picture Lindasy took of Lilly and Devan when she was 2 weeks old!

                              

This is the one she took of Me and Lilly... 

She is going to call me Gigi!

    Here are some Pictures I took of Lilly at 2 weeks old!

New Scarf design!

I am very excited about my new scarf design I just listed on Etsy. I have made several for gifts and now I have finally finished one that isn't a gift or promised to anyone. I hope someone loves it as much as people have commented on the one I have been wearing. They are a lot of fun to make. I enjoy making them when I am watching TV at night with the family.. They don't like me you be a recluse upstairs. So it is nice to have a project I can work at on the floor in the den. I can only do a few of the designs and then wait till they dry a bit. I like that because my back gives out about the time I get 4 or 5 finished.... Getting old sucks!http://www.etsy.com/listing/90801255/tie-dye-circles?utm_source=OpenGraph&utm_medium=PageTools&utm_campaign=Share LOL

Summer is flying by!

Well I have two weeks of summer break left... I had big plans for my summer and I have not accomplished them.  I have had fun at the beach and at the St. Johns River on vacation. I have relaxed and recuperated from the long school year. Today, I even cleaned my studio and started decorating a stool for my classroom. It is going to be a very colorful place for me to perch. Speaking of perching, my finchs are doing well they have had two eggs hatch and Esher, Georgia and the babies are living in their new avairy. I built it out of an old gun cabinet. I have been thinking about ideas for my classroom door and my friend Lee's door. We are going to do a Pete the Cat and the Blue Dog theme. Possibly the theme in art this year will be artist who worked with a lot of blue.  I also have some really cool art ideas in my head. Paintings I want to create and I guess I should be up stairs painting right now. Only I was feeling guilty about not blogging, so here I am. I dream of getting more stuff on my Etsy shop and putting some framed prints in a friend of mines shop in town. Oh if there were two of me! One could clean and do laundry and the other could do the art! Well as it is one of the two things goes undone and lately it has been the art. I haven't had a lot of success on getting everthing clean either so I guess I could just go paint and forget the rest. HAHA then I could be on one of those TV shows about messy houses. That way I would get lots of exposure and I could sell lots of art work! HAHAHa!!!
