About Me

I suppose really the best way to find out who I am is to get to know me slowly. You could start here for a summed up bio. You could search around here to get the fuller picture, and if you'd like you could check me out at these places too.

It's all about the Brand

A few weeks back a wonderful friend who I met though my Sister In-law Katie, who by the way is also a photographer and a talented one at that. Her name is Meg. Anyways she started working on a way to personalize her CD holders. I loved them so much I asked her about them and then made some of my own..via the help of colorinc.com It took me a little while to really decide how I wanted to take my Studio's style; fun and retro, classic and soft, or wild and crazy...choices, choices, choices. Anyways, the whole designing stuff for my Studio sort of started a fire for wanting to do something for this page. Now I've been working on trying to design a logo for this wonderful website. A little something to put on my car, some business cards to hand out...blah blah blah. Anyways, one night while I was messing around I came up with a design that I felt was perfect for this site, And I was totally like "YES!" and then my self doubt set in and umm now I'm not so sure. So I'm asking you. What do YOU think.

This is what I am planning for the front of the business cards. In case you're not sure the silhouette is a photoshop brush I made from a 1940's pin up girl who happens to be saluting...she is also the same pin up I used for my "about me" tab on the upper left hand side. DW is how I sign off my emails to people who write to me.....aka D for Diary and W for Wife...Diary Wife.

and this is the inside or would you call it the information side or...what the hell do they call this part of the card???

And this is the decal I am thinking about putting on my car. I happen to love them...Like I really love them. But do you? What are your thoughts.....nice...bad...fun...fresh...too much...not enough...rique?

Tell me, tell me, tell me...I don't want to order something that you guys aren't going to like.

I like it. It looks good. I like it. It's fun, captures the personality, and is definatly you. I really do honestly like it. Like it as in I would totally hand these out to people (that I knew personally and just total strangers too). Wow, how many times did I type "like" in those past sentances? :-D

I like it so much that it makes me kinda want to hate you. You know, in one of those love/hate type of ways. I love it so much I'm sad I didn't think of it first. Very, very awesome!
