Jamze & Tara came to the studio for some family portraits. They came a little early to do some portraits of just them and to be a part of a photo I wanted to create. I love all the color in the different images. It’s been so fun to experiment around the studio. The balloon image turned out just the way it was envisioned. Great shoes and effortless posing! 🙂  It’s now the new profile image on the JW Photography Facebook Fan page! Thank you Jamze & Tara!

Well this was the day for Jodi and Auntie Sovo’s big adventure. It was a fact finding and R&D purchasing trip. So the only reasonable thing to do was to start at Bedrock Industries. What better place to go for creative, and as it turns out…social edification. Just take a look at these pictures and you’ll see what I mean. How beautiful the world would be if the next road you traveled was paved with these deep blue pebbles. And the kicker…these are nearly as ‘green’ as the original gravel. As you go through these pictures keep in mind that there is no extra pigment applied to the glass. This is all recycled with abundant creativity and earth awareness.

Bedrock Industries is truly amazing. Everything that is made there is designed with a creative eye. Walking around with my camera kept me interested for most of the visit. Please keep this place in mind when making props for your studio, designing things in your home or just wanting to do a creative new project.

Earthwise has got to be one of the coolest places for inspiration. Basically, they go and salvage materials and sell them to YOU at great rates. Seriously, this place had so much. And, who can’t love a giant palm tree in the middle of Seattle?? 🙂

I picked up some great new props and backgrounds for the studio during my trip here. They had a super sweet see-through bullet proof door from a bank. It was amazing, but was not the right size for my doorway.

The customer service here is great. I guarantee you will find SOMETHING you can’t leave without and will have reasons to return. I know I do! Thanks Earthwise!

Remember Jack? He was the little guy who didn’t like his carrot hat so much.. He came back because he is 6 months old … What a calm baby he is .. He will pretty much put up with anything. And, of course we pulled another hat down on him. He is just the cutest little thing. Enjoy his adorable face and look forward to seeing him in about another 6 months.

Please contact me for any information from custom made hats from Lollipop Tots… Hats range from $20-$30.
