Good Morning Fashionistas!

I had such a great weekend! I got to finally see my friend, who is living in New York, and is having a baby in 5 weeks!! I had a friend who turned 28 and we got to have a great celebration (we are getting old, but more fabulous by the year!). And, I got to do a photo shoot with a very cool photographer! 

I never started blogging because I, by any mean thought I was--or wanted to become--a model! I just love love love clothes :). So when Mike Geig-said photographer- asked me if I would be interested in doing this-- I was super excited, but super nervous! I am not great in front of the camera, but I really feel like pictures are so important to a blog--and what did I have to lose--so I agreed! 

It was so fun and he took the time to explain my camera to me even more so that when my hubs is taking my photos they can be a better quality picture! I felt like I learned so much and had a blast!! I had to get the pugs in on the photo shoot as well--although they are even worse at modeling than myself! Total Divas--only would model for treats! They are lucky they are so stinkin' cute!

If any other bloggers out there have posing, photo, or any other kinda of tips to make pictures better for fashion blogging I would love to hear them!! 

O and the outfit-- fur, plaid, bling, and boots--enough said :).

Have a fabulous Monday!

  9. I think your photos look gorgeous! I've found that standing with one foot behind the other and hand on the hip is very flattering for full body, also, experiment with angles (of the camera, your face, body, etc).
    Glad I found your blog, new follower via BlogLovin :)

  12. Love that fur vest and plaid shirt. They look so cute together. The colors are very pretty. I've been looking for a fur vest for a while. Might check out wet seal.

  14. I feel the same way about posing for photos. I do better when it's me and my tripod. I have more personality. However, my husband does a far better job capturing the outfit. I don't know why but I'm shy around my husband when it comes to photographing me. Lol
