A couple of weeks ago, I got together with the girls and we created a little "floral bliss" to share with you...we literally put this shoot together in twenty-four hours...here's how it went down.....I called my friend and oh-so-AMAZINGLY talented photographer, Amelia, of Amelia Johnson Photography and asked if she could come over and photograph a few bouquets for me...she said yes and I really wanted to be able to have someone holding the bouquets in the photos.
I contacted my girl Erika Nixon, makeup artist extraordinaire and asked if she could get a model on such short notice to help out...well, not only did Erika get an awesome model for the shoot, she walked into my home with the most beautiful young lady.... inside and out...say hello to Soliél ...she has a smile that lights up the night and she calls me "Mama Janie"! We all had the best time girl chatting....so much laughter and fun....and it's always a special treat watching Erika do her thing...and when she decided to give Soliél a "bright and bold lip color, well, we couldn't wait to start the shoot.
So, it begin...it was so exciting watching Amelia and Soliél work together...seriously, it was pure joy...seeing Amelia directing Soliél and watching how natural Soliél is in front of the camera was truly music to my ears....and, of course, seeing how Amelia captured all the florals.....just so magical!
Thank you so much Amelia, Erika and Soliél....what a fun afternoon I had with all of you and it was so wonderful making new friends and building new relationships on a beautiful fall day.....I'm also excited to share that you can also see more from this feature over at one of my favorite sites, Munaluchi Bridal.....so make sure you head over to check it out.......Enjoy!

Hi Guys....I want to thank all of you for your patience this week...I've been MIA...my niece has been ill and she lives about two hours away from Richmond, so she's been staying with me while she's been getting dialysis at a hospital here in Richmond. She has a long road ahead of her and on yesterday, we got word that she can now have her dialysis treatments at a hospital closer to her home town. It has been an emotional and stressful week and I want to thank my friends and my AMAZING cafe readers for all of your support.
Last night, I was surfing the net and I found myself checking out the beautiful work of Adam Barnes Photography and look what I found.....my bride's bouquet from a wedding I had the pleasure of working with Adam on a few weeks ago....Adam is truly one of the nicest guys on the planet....his work is AMAZING....simply STUNNING!!!...I love how he makes "my children"...aka..my flowers, "dance on the pages"...seeing my bouquet put a much needed smile on my face and my heart...THANK YOU Adam.... guys, make certain you check out Adam's beautiful blog site.....lots of pretty "eye candy" to see!
