Alison Waring: Photography Graphic Design

A little George Michael for ya. Why you ask? Because I checked my mail on Saturday and what did I see!?!  A supercoolawesomefunky camera neck strap from My Funky Camera.  Two birds makin’ out hot off the sewing machine.  I won mine in a contest that she had on Twitter.  Haven’t signed up yet? You totally should, nothing relieves stress like reading other people’s rants and snarky comments. 

You should go and check out what Gabriela has in her store, everything is handmade with lurve by her.  She will pimp your gear. Wurd!!

Say what!?! It’s coming up fast in March of ‘09.  BOSTON!!! Last time I was in Boston it was for the Secret Photography with Cheryl Muhr.  I got some totally rad photos from that shoot/learning session.  Just imagine what I can learn from over a gajillion classes at Photoshop World and that’s not all! They have a bunch of speakers. Like MOOSE PETERSON!!! He is a Nikon legend.  While I don’t shoot wildlife (unless toddlers count) his infinite knowledge alone of lenses, post processing and workflow would be invaluable to soak up.  So, if you are like me and multi-task by spending copious amounts of free time farting around on Photoshop head over to the Photoshop World Conference  site and check out what they have to offer.  You’re bound to learn something new!

Here’s another sneak peak from this past weekend.  Another newborn, only 2 weeks old.  Baby “A” was awesome, slept pretty much the whole time and let me bend him into all kinds of newborn fun positions.  Mom found a super cute knitted monkey suit for him to wear.  It was a tad big but we made it work.  Enjoy!

Mommy says he has puppy dreams.  Barks, kicks and smiles in his sleep.  I was lucky enough to catch it.

Happy (early) Holidays!

I had another baby shoot this morning and what a cutie! Little Miss “O” was a perfect angel.  Especially since she missed her naptime for me.  She was all smiles and cooing away.  We played dress-up with a half dozen outfits (all were super cute, hard to pick a favorite) and hairbows galore!  Here’s a little sneak peak of Miss “O” and her family.  BTW “O” stands for OhMyGoshSoCute!

Miss “O” in her oBow!

This melts my heart

It’s the Christmas season and things are starting to pick so get ready for a lot posting.  This past crazy weekend was filled with lots of picture snapping, a puppy and a missed wedding (sorry Nate and Drea!).  The Moss’ family has been friends with the hubs & I since we were kids at the local YMCA.  I had the pleasure of capturing a few shots for their Christmas card this year.  Enjoy!
