Summertime weddings, part 1

Image
  There are a few things more lovely than a summertime wedding. There are also a few things hotter in the state of Florida. Everything is in bloom. The greenery is gorgeous; the flowers are in full bloom, and the sun is beaming down this side of the equator in all of its glory. So what does this mean for you and your outdoor wedding day?  Your guests may be sweaty and uncomfortable if you run late. The chairs roasting in the sun may be uncomfortable to sit on. You, your intended, the bridal party, and your guests may sweat through the elaborately chosen outfits. Your vendors will be hot and sweaty, and that thousand-dollar cake sitting on display outside in 90-degree weather might start melting. It also means you can have a lovely outdoor wedding with nature as your beautiful background. You will have options for pictures. You walk down the aisle can be more dramatic and many times much wider if you have more than one escort or a wide dress or extensive train. It also means wa...

Hurricane season has begun

Image
It's July and we have officially begun hurricane season in Florida. This year even though weddings are more plentiful I have been forced to take fewer weddings due to illness, the death of my mother, and the declining health of my mother-in-law for whom I provide constant care. What does this mean for all those couples planning July weddings in Florida? I will give you a few tips to consider. Check the weather updates constantly.  Book a vendor with indoor and outdoor options. No one likes to get rained on. This includes your vendors and their very expensive equipment, your guests with their brand new or possibly uncomfortable outfits, and getting a change of date or refunds may be harder than you think. Hurricane season is officially from June 1st through November 30th. There will be daily rains and Florida's flowers and fauna will be green and healthy from the daily rains.  Flooding and loss of electricity will be common. Dates not predicted to rain will fill up very fast....

Find growth in the rain of your marriage. Just like in nature, rain and storms are needed to make flowers and gardens grow. The same can be said for your marriage or domestic partnership. Although rain and storms assail your marriage, your marriage is not doomed to fail, but grow stronger, more secure, more formidable because of your special bond of love.

You may experience job loss or the loss of a cherished family member or friend or th...

 My day two attempt at macro shooting on a budget. the shot 1/60 sec f/4 35 mm  ISO 400 I used 1 piece of the Tiffany blue glitter card stock,  and either the round mirror or  reflective card stock on the bottom, and the triangle led light  to create this picture the shot 1/60 sec f/4 35 mm  ISO 400 In this photo, I used the mini bird nest and the long hair white faux fur to complete this look. I used a round container of q-tips with pink stems that you get from the dollar store (laying on it's side)and took the photo directly on the shelf. In editing I used a purple ombre edit. the shot 1/60 sec f/4 35 mm  ISO 400 Gold glitter card stock behind and under the rings the shot 1/60 sec f/4 35 mm  ISO 400 this is using two black metallic card stock sheets and the top one fell down as I was shooting it.
