My extraordinarily pretty friend, Katie, graciously agreed to model for me this weekend-- seriously, she should get paid for being this pretty (and a sweetheart to boot), luckily she doesn't charge. I'm frantically trying to put together my ad for GR Bride magazine which is due this week. I had this idea that I could shoot some spectacular image for it (plus I'm just sick of looking at my old stuff-- man, I can't wait for wedding season!!). Unfortunately, I blew it on many levels: I dawdled and thought I had more time to catch that beautiful sunset light, my lighting was finicky, I yelled at my poor gaffer/husband, and made Katie freeze her bunz off. Although I laid awake that night sick about missing that light, I can't say I don't like the way they turned. Good ol' Photoshop to the rescue. Hopefully the brides-to-be will like them! If you have a vote on which one you think I should use, leave a comment.

About Me
- melissavannestphotography
- Hello, Melissa here (I've been watching a lot of Burt and Ernie-- hopefully you'll catch the reference) thanks for visiting my blog! I have a pretty cool job. I love photography, it has so many possibilities for artistic expression, my biggest dilemma is sticking to a style. My other cool "job" is mom to my daughter Aysah (at the moment she is 16 months old and all of you were right, it goes by so quickly). I am married to Mr Fix-it... seriously, things are fixed in his mere presence, it's impressive. My ambitions for this blog are to show off my recent work, recruit models, maybe throw out a few photography tips, show off my beautiful baby, let you know what I'm up to, and maybe throw out a saying from my mother (passed down from her mother).
