Wow-I am still feeling incredibly honored to have been chosen as one of the only 54 photographers (out of 1000) to move on to round 2 of Matilda Jane’s PhotoLove contest! (www.matildajaneclothing.com or Matilda Jane Clothing on facebook ) A few weeks ago, we all received the same dress set from MJ to photograph and then choose only ONE image (again) to submit.
I can honestly say I lost a little sleep dreaming up possible photoshoot options… Oh, the props, the locations, and the styling options I came up with! I think I drove everyone I knew batty with my constant yapping about ideas I had! ha!
In the end, however, I decided to go with time-tested simple and not many props to keep the focus on the gorgeous clothing! After all, Matilda Jane is all about making girls smile, have fun, and feel happy and beautiful, wherever they are or whatever they are doing.
Here in Michigan, we had a huge snow/ice storm this week, closing schools all week and leaving tons without power. As a result, the trees were all covered with snow and were so pretty! So, off we went!
Have to take a minute to thank my stunning daughter for modeling-she was so excited-and loved shooting out in the snow. We were laughing so much and had the best time, even though it was 21 degrees! <3
Congrats to all the other photographers-some beautiful work has been shown-good luck to you all! I am feeling pretty blessed to have been a part of this! Thank you Matilda Jane!
