I had the great pleasure of photographing Madilyn’s lovely newborn squishiness when she was just five days old…man they grow quick! She is now a squealing, toddling, happy, gorgeous one year old big girl. Her personality is so sweet, just like her big sister, Mama and Dad; a truly loving and giving family. xo

The creative options are limitless and the end result can not only be intriguing and pretty, but also tell a story. I might also add that the lack of need for a ruler, level and inevitably, spackling and paint is also rather attractive (or maybe that’s just me…I’m not the tidiest artwork hanger). In my opinion this type of display would work best with unframed prints sized at 5×7 or smaller (hint: a perfect project for your proofs from our full session). I’ll share pictures of my own collage as soon as it’s complete…

I know that displaying artwork is a major hurdle for a lot of my clients; they love their images but just don’t know what to do with them. In addition to helping with these decisions during in home proofing & ordering sessions I hope to inspire and build decorating confidence with these posts.

I love IKEA for many reasons. Walking through their showroom makes me go weak in the knees and we always come home brimming with fresh design inspiration. They also just happen to have a fantastic selection of frames at very affordable prices. We have a lot of prints in our home, a majority of which are displayed in IKEA frames, (I’ll be showcasing our home in an upcoming post). They simply work perfectly with our modern, minimalistic decor, but likewise would look top notch in a more traditional setting. Below are some images from IKEA’s current online catalog. I particularly like the tip in the first image: create an imaginary frame (or use painter’s tape if you need the visual) and do whatever you wish inside of that frame, making sure that pictures make it to the corners of the frame. Piece of cake! Enjoy!

Her emotions are intense and all consuming…on both ends of the spectrum. Hmmm…wonder where she gets that from?! And she just keeps getting so big! I really need a pause button for this one. She is definitely our last baby…and boy did we go out with a bang! And um yeah…my childhood love for Punky Brewster is still alive and kicking…
