I recently photographed the boys for this year's holiday cards, but am having trouble deciding which one to use! Obviously they're very cute in both photos. I like the differing heights in the first one, but Veeb's sultry, relaxed look and pose in the second.

They're just so cute and accommodating, I can barely stand it. I just might have to order two sets!

In case you're wondering, the paper flowers taped to the wall are from Paper Source's poinsettia wreath kit. It took me much longer than I'd like to admit putting each flower together but they're so pretty. I cut some lacy ribbon strands, also from Paper Source. The "table top" tree is live, from Whole Foods. I LOVE it. And I decorated it with paper snowflakes from Paper Source, and letterpress gift tags I bought a couple years ago.

And their pompom scarves are knit from Sundara Yarn Aran Silky Merino in Charcoal over Blue Lagoon and Ruby Port.

ETA: I ordered a pack of each! Hee hee.

First Engagement Shoot

Wednesday, December 02, 2009

Hi everyone! Just a little cross-posting to say that I did my first engagement shoot last weekend! Sarah, whom I spoke about here first, and her fiance came up from Providence for the shoot around Boston's Back Bay. I guess we are getting our reward for making through the endless rain this summer, because the leaves were (are) still intact even now, which made for a very lovely, autumnal shoot. I never did appreciate just how beautiful Commonwealth Avenue is, with its trees all aglow from leaves and Christmas lights alike. And Sarah & Rich, they were such a great couple. I still need a lot of work in posing people, but they sure helped me out by being relaxed, playful and comfortable in front of the camera. Not to mention gorgeous.

I can't wait for their wedding next year. Really can't wait.

To see more photos of the shoot, visit here.

Oh and this post has to do tangentially with knitting because I wouldn't have gotten this gig if Cirilia hadn't hooked us up. I feel like I owe her a bit of commission!

It's December. Wow. Time to get cracking on my goals and wishes for 2010. The list is going to be long.
