Happy Eye . . . Homako

Homako is a Japanese born designer of handmade goodness . . .

I've been stocking her store for a while, dreaming of the day that I get to hang one of these beauties around my neck . . .

Then, last week, I bought this one for my friend for her birthday.

It was even better in person. I love the green, it's such a fun statement piece and it looked so good on my friend:)

They look like little candies, I wish I could eat them . . . nevermind.

 I think that these are my favorite . . . anthropologie got smart and sold one of these necklaces at their store.

 She uses unexpected materials for jewlery,

she's got an incredible eye for design and construction

 Come on now . . . how cute is this, this one reminds me of my friend Heather R.

 coolest shape ever

 I call this one Elizabeth goes sailing

One of each please!!

Thank you Homako for making the world a prettier place :)

Love, Tiffany

patience

Well, I've been staring at this screen all day watching a wedding upload, watching a wedding download, watching and album upload, and it's been painfully slow . . .not sure what's going on with my internet speed, and I think that I have not freaked out because my computer has turned my brain into mush :) So I'm going to throw a few photos onto the world wide web to attempt to revive myself . . . creative cpr. Here it goes . . . this is Josh & Sachie and they are pretty precious people.

back in action

Hello again, it's been a while . . . It's been an interesting year with a lot of transition and a lot of life to live and when I'm busy and behind with work, the blog is the first thing to go. Neverless, I still love the blog, an outlet and a place to share my heart and my art with you all and so I'm making a new push to blog more often. I'm going to catch you up on work I've done over the last year and new stuff I'm up to now. You inevitably will see a lot of my family, because I love them more than I love photography :)

These photos were taken at an extended family vacation over the summer. I blew this first one up as a 30x40 in our living room. I love it! We got so wind blown . . . it was wonderful :)

The Johnstons

So, I'm catching up on blogging weddings from the fall :)
This wedding is dear to my heart because it's my cousins! Roland and Olivia are special people and I love them dearly.
Here are some of my favorite images from their day.




Isn't she lovely?











Love this shot



Roland is a surfer, so he got married in board shorts and everyone wore flip flops. It was pretty fun.








Tulip was responsible for the beautiful flowers.




Tucker is the best dog in the whole wide world. If I ever get a dog, I'm going to have Roland train it :)
























You guys are beautiful and I'm so glad I got to shoot your photos. Olivia, I am so excited to be related to you welcome to the family you are a gift to us!
