cap1 How to turn any bottle into an iPhone or camera tripodOkay this is one of the coolest things I have seen. With photography becoming a huge trend, whether professional or just for fun, you never know when you will run into a photo opportunity, so it’s better to be prepared. There are a few girls I know that are becoming really interested in photography and this would be the perfect gift. I’m thinking a graduation gift would be awesome too.

This special attachment fits onto any bottle for an easy tripod. Take photos anywhere with a snap and don’t invest in tons of equipment. Get the bottle cap tripod at photojojo, which has all sorts of cool camera attachments. Get a tripod for your iPhone 4, a waterproof shield along with many types of tripods and photo accessories.

This is such a fun idea for a wedding photo shoot. The Disney I Do Glitter Stickers.   These sky blue sparkly Disney “I Do” set includes two Mickey’s to peel and stick on your shoes for the perfect photo op! These are just to darn adorable to pass up! They are really simple to use, just place the “i” on the bottom arch of one shoe and the “Do” on the other shoe.  These cute I Do stickers are available in a variety of different colors, including Pink, Purple, Sky Blue, Dark Blue, Silver, Red, Orange, Emerald Green, Gold and Black.

Surprise the guests at your wedding with this fun idea on the bottoms of your heels. I have seen these used in many photo shoots with the bride kneeling at the alter, zoomed in on the shoes. These are so fun and a great accessorie to add to your wedding. These make for great pictures.

 

 

Custom Picture Drawn from Your Photo

This is absolutely by far my most awesome find. I can hardly stand it, I already have plans to do this for my parents for Christmas. The people at PacificPastime, will Draw a Custom Picture from Your Photo. Your photo is drawn in black and white and you choose the size of paper that you want done. Pricing is done based on picture size as well as how many people you have in the photo. I remember get these done at fairs and such growing up and they are so fun to look at.

 

I am planning on having one done of my mom and my brother who passed away unexpectly at only 20 years of age. This is a great way to have a memorialize him. My mom and my brother were one of a kind, and they had a very special relationship. My mom will be so surprised, hopefully tears of joy when she opens this for Christmas.

It seems to be baby fever around here lately, my cousin and his wife had their first baby and it was a beautiful baby girl. I also have two other cousins who are having boys, and my best friend just found out she and her husband will be anxiously awaiting their new arrival in February.  I found this site that makes Handmade Hats and Headbands and more for your new bundle of joy, toddler, child, youth and adult. These hats are all made custom for you the buyer.

These make great birthday gifts, new baby gifts, Christmas presents and more. I love that you can choose the colors and the style you want. If you don’t see something that you like, ask for something special. If you have a photographer in your life, these would make great photography props for their pictures. With winter right around the corner, get your order in soon, so you will have it when the cool weather hits. If you are pregnant and know what you are having, these cute hats would go great with the outfit the baby wears home. These are all adorable hats, it is so hard to choose just one to order. What ones do you like? I have ordered here before and have been very satisfied!

Woodland Tree Photography Prints

by | Leave a comment

I am a nature lover, and have an obsession for photography. I love these woodland tree photography prints, they are colorful, and calming. These would look great on any wall, in the living room, master bedroom, even in the dining room. I love that these photos are in different stages of a trees leaf growth, some being bare and some full with leaves.

I usually take my camera with me on long walks, and always have the camera on my phone snapping pictures of my kids. It wasn’t till last fall that I fell in love with the beauty in trees. I have snapped a few pictures like these, however non of them show the beauty I see in these pictures. I love that there is a story behind these pictures, like where these trees have put down their roots, where the tree is located,  how this photographer traveled to get this photo. These pictures inspire peace and tranquility for me. I hope that you all enjoy them as much as I did.
