I can't help but notice all of the self portraits floating around on my fave blogs, websites, etc. And it made me think... i have a blog, i have a shop... why don't i have some nice/fun pictures to represent myself with?
SO, i asked my sister this morning to help me out this weekend {since she takes some pretty amazing photos}. Ever since that text, i would say my productive-ness has gone down about, um... 80 percent? All i can think about are fun set ups and pretty places we can go take them!
Here's one {my fave}
a tea party!!!
I mean obviously with the movie alice in wonderland coming out, there's been an explosion in the popularity of things like this... but i can truly say that i've been an alice fan since the first time i watched the VIDEO:)
so here's my plan... set up a mini tea party for some pics, do you love?
this is truly what my tea party would look like, but i'll class it up for some pictures:)
What about you guys. Have you ever done a "photo shoot" just for yourself? It's kind of intimidating... i think that's why i need some props... to make me more comfortable:)
Tomorrows Friday, get excited!

have fun!
ReplyDeletei'm in a photography class and want to do a fun portrait session like this!
There's nothing better than setting up for a fun photo shoot, you girls will totally get carried away and a thousand pictures later you'll separate the good ones from the okay ones and a stack for the no's and a pile of hilarious "out takes"...all while enjoying the delicious little cupcakes, fruit bites, finger sandwiches and tea cups filled with champagne punch from your set! I wanna come! Haha! This sounds great, seriously! Two of my best girlfriends are coming to visit me next week and I've already been brewing over fun photo shoots, now you've got me even more excited for them to arrive! ;)
ReplyDeleteHappy Thursday!
One <3...M
Oh my goodness - I love the very first photo!!! Take one like THAT!!! I love her pose and how pretty the setup is! Good luck and have FUN :D
ReplyDeleteyeah, alice is EVERYWHERE! but i can't say that i don't like it...
ReplyDeleteand yes! have you been reading indie biz? where elsie talked about taking self-portraits? now i want to take a self-photoshoot too! that would be so fun. and yes, a tea party, though overdone, would be oh so fun.
Hey! I am doing a photo mashup in April on my blog and would love for you to join! Please let me know if you are interested and I will send you info! Have a good weekend!
