Punk Rock Bat Mitzvah

10 December, 2008 – 1:20 am

I’ve wanted to blog this great portrait session for a while now. Miss L and Miss N are sisters who will be celebrating their Bat Mitzvahs together in April. They love music and wanted to have some portraits with a rock star look. We were more than happy to oblige! We had a fab time with these girls and their super hip mom and we can’t wait for their party next spring. Rock on, ladies. Rock on.

You can see more of their session in the slide show below. It takes a minute to load, but it’s totally worth the wait. Enjoy!

Design Tuesday: Be Inspired

2 December, 2008 – 12:04 pm

Jenna Lyons is my new girl crush. How could she be otherwise? After seeing her beautiful home in the October issue of Domino Magazine, I am totally smitten. Who would have imagined that the Creative Director of J Crew would rock her house with such a wonderful color palette? I would have thought Lily Pulitzer but instead we get Chrissie Hynde with a twist. Fabulous! I love, love, love the colors she used in her living room (upper left) and baby’s nursery (lower left.) I am beginning to think my bright red living room’s days are numbered. It’s just a hop, skip, and a jump from black nail polish to black paint on the walls. I’m ready!
