What exactly is a “bouboulette?” OK, they’re sort of like the love-child of a shortbread cookie and a petit-four. Maybe a great-uncle is a Madeleine and a step great-aunt might be a raspberry Aebleskiver. They’re beautifully-decorated little squares of yum.
Teen Model Headshots; or, How I met a young Kate Hepburn
I don’t know which I enjoy shooting more: young kids, dogs, or teens. Young kids are fun because I just let them play and ignore me, and they’re perfectly happy to do that. Same with dogs. Teens are amazing because they have such a story to tell.
Spring is in the air (but my body’s back in winter)
I’m dreaming of this: (Atlantis, Paradise Island, Nassau, The Bahamas).. but I’ve been eating this: (my daughter’s chocolate-chip cookies for Haiti fundraisers) and this: (exquisite chocolates from Caffeine in South Norwalk, CT)
Still “Waiting for Spring”…
I like both shots. The one on black is dramatic, detailed, striking, and bold. The one on the beige works surprisingly well, too: softer, quieter, gentler. It all depends on your mood, and how each one speaks to you. I know what they’re saying to me: Hang in there. Spring is on its way.
Waiting for Spring…
It’s been a long — very long — winter, and I’m eager for warmer weather. On the other hand, the recent snows have turned my attention to the indoor flowers I enjoy. This paperwhite lilly was given to me as bulbs when I did holiday portraits shots at Designs by Lee in Stamford, CT.
