Lipstick Legends and Babypalooza

WOW....what a busy week and weekend. Even though I've been outrageously busy, I am totally energized from all of the activity. Two great things happened this week: I officially premiered my new website and photography venture, Lipstick Legends Photography AND I had my first exhibit ever at Babypalooza.

I'm very excited about Lipstick Legends Photography. Lipstick Legends are vintage-style black/white portraits for women only. These sessions allow them the opportunity to be as sexy or as demure as they desire. I believe the portraits give them the opportunity to see themselves as others see them as well as allows them some time to recapture their feminine side that seems to have gotten buried under loads of laundry and in the carpool line. These portraits make great gifts for husbands or boyfriends (calendars, mouse pads, playing cards, desk portraits, etc.). Sessions are only $50.00. I am working on special print packages for the holidays. Need I remind you they are just around the corner??!!

Exhibiting at Babypalooza was awesome!! I've never exhibited at an event before and I enjoyed every moment while there. It gave me the opportunity to interact with potential clients and allowed them the opportunity to chat with me and preview some of my work. Who knew that the biggest hit would be a deck of playing cards that included your child's photo! Some people left with an Ace of Spades or Queen of Hearts as a sample. The winners of our two drawings were Bethany Davis and Mandy Richards! Congratulations ladies!

Well, it's back to work. Stay tuned this week for details on my Endless Summer sessions! Have a fabulous day!

I'm just sayin',

The Future of Farm Town

If you are an active member of Facebook, you are more than likely familiar with, on an intimate basis, a game called Farm Town. Farm Town is a virtual farm. You plow your land, plant your crops and reap the rewards (coins) of selling those crops at harvest time. You even have the ability to "prostitute" yourself in the village market by offering to harvest other farmers' crops. You can sell your farm for larger farms, purchase silos, waterwells, logs, barrels, pigs, chickens, roosters, goats....you get the picture. You beg your "farming" friends to send you gifts of animals and trees so that you will not have to make these expensive purchases yourself. After all, you are saving your coins so that you can buy that farming mansion and pond you've been lusting after on the neighboring farm. However, the future of Farm Town may be compromised. My son called earlier to let me know Facebook had a new virtual farm game called Farm Ville. He's at level

Revolution!

In 1968, the Beatles wrote a song entitled “Revolution”…which is the theme of my blog today. I believe it’s time for a good, old-fashioned revolution, or at the very least, a mediocre civil war between the conformists and non-conformists! You see, I’m a non-conformist…I refuse to go along with the crowd…a rebel per se! I march to the beat of my own drum. If I were born in a different time period, I would have been riding astride when all the other ladies were riding side-saddle. I would have been on the battlefield reloading muskets, wearing britches, while all the other ladies were taking care of the wounded. We have a president in office who has touted ‘change, change, change’ ever since he became the democratic nominee for president. However, his big plans for change have done nothing but flop like a fish on dry land. Everyone wants change, but we want change for the good of all, not for the good of those who choose to avoid work, moral ethics and abuse my tax dollars. I’m ready for

Monica, the Czar

I hope most of you are keeping up. The Real Magnolias stories are not going to be consecutive posts as I do have other things going on in my life that I feel the need to write about. Not alot mind you, but other things nonetheless. :-) In the previous post, I mentioned Monica, the Czar. Monica had a nasty habit of being the mom and trying to keep the rest of us from ever having any fun. Thank goodness she was never successful! However, one thing she was quite successful at was making new friends. I use this term loosely as it was usually people she would pass on the street. Monica felt it was her place to not only be the Czar in our lives, but also in lives of strangers. For Monica never met a person she didn't take the opportunity to talk to. When she would see someone that she thought she would be able to strike up a conversation with, she would stop them to talk. Said conversation went something like this: Monica, the Czar: "Hey, do you have the internet?&quo
