life : pretty baby

Pretty Baby
song : baby mine by alison krauss.

i've been getting back to photo-styling recently. i really enjoy it (challenging) and it takes practice to get things just so. we've been collecting for years, so finally many of our tchotchkes are being put to good use and dusted off. this set is all about baby things and dedicated to grace who is about to deliver her baby any minute now & julia who has a few more months to go.

Pretty Baby

the corgi car is from scott's childhood collection and definitely for grace as she is going to have a boy. julia remains to be seen. the lamb is from stephanie congdon barnes, print by jessica gonacha swift, flower from tinsel trading, trees made by me and wallpaper from craft vintage dry goods.

Pretty Baby

these vintage baby accessories include the humpty dumpty mug i used as a kid. the collage i made includes paper quilling of a mama duck and her ducklings. i loved doing this series and wish grace & julia all the best in the next chapter of their lives. they're going to be great moms! hope you all had a nice weekend. thank you for the sweet comments on our last post :).

xo, cindy

ps the pop-up card says -

to you and the new baby
heard the line's busy at your house -
heard you don't mind one bit,
'cause you're so in love
with the darlin'
who's responsible for it!

Those are so sweet Cindy!

In regards to the D90, I think I have tried everything!! My cousin had the same camera, and she says that hers does the same thing, where it won't auto focus and will not take the picture. Like I said, I called Nikon and asked them about this and they told me to put it on manual, and do it that way, I tried and for some reason, even at that point, it wouldn't release the shutter! I think I'm going to a camera shop for some help.
