Tater Tots children boutique

October 30, 2009

It’s the valley’s hippest children’s boutique featuring children’s clothing for precious preemie, toddler, to tweens… and a little for Mom, too!  Furniture, bedding, educational toys, books, baby gear, gifts, and much more. Again the CUTEST store and voted BEST clothing in the valley for kids!!

If you are expecting, and especially if you already booked a session with me and want to look picture perfect, this is the best place to be!

Here are some of the shots I took of Janessa’s store and some of her new fall line and winter warm  clothing…015583

designer bridal dress

October 27, 2009

Liz Harrison Designs lives here in Sun Valley and has the best in mind when creating your dream gown!! She graduated Oregon State University with a Bachelor’s Degree in Apparel Design, then continued on to get her graduate degree in Fashion Design at the infamous Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising in Los Angeles. Also Liz has attended the Paris American Academy in France, the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City, and completed an intense design internship with a couture bridal designer in London.

Besides her amazing education and talent — Liz is sweet and has a kind demeanor to be around! I know she is going to do amazing things in this industry.  I asked if she would like to be photographed with one of her bridal couture dresses to share with upcoming 2010 brides, who are looking to create a custom fit gown — whether it be simple and understated or wildly extravagant!
