FYI…..

I just wanted to do a little hello…. I am out of town until Saturday, July 16 for my day job. I get to hang out with oodles of kiddos this week (including my 2 nieces!) at our annual summer camp. So, if you email me this week…. please know I’ll get back with you asap. We only have wifi in a small area here and cell service is shaky at best. Regular blogging & editing will resume next week. ….. so many things to blog…. including Saturday’s wedding…. which was completely unforgettable! toodles.

Children | Kendal

I can’t believe this little peanut is a year old now!!! Seems like she was born just yesterday! If you follow me on twitter, you know I’ve had a predicament with our new sofa in the office. Keep the pink? Ditch the pink? Well… we’re ditching the pink. ***runs & hides**** Don’t get me wrong, that sofa is darn cute, and I know I am ruining some little girls dream to have it in her room…. but this little girl, can’t deal with it. It just isn’t working for me, the pink isn’t really the right shade, it’s kinda dirty, the pattern is too busy, and the upholstery job is heinous. However, I am grateful that this introduction of pink, in an otherwise all orange/gray/white scene has forced me to rethink my branding & make a colorful addition to my company. After I began adding touches of pink here and there, I realized it only made sense. You see, I am a longtime lover of all things Lilly Pulitzer and Kate Spade. Both of which scream southern, girly girl…. and what good southern girl doesn’t love pink? 🙂 Anyway…. my point of all this is… we’re reupholstering the sofa…. BUT before we do, we wanted to make use of all it’s pink glory…. and Kendal’s first birthday seemed like the perfect occasion 🙂

Online Proofing!

Something I’ve struggled with is online proofing. After much internal debate, I’ve decided to do it!! All shoots that have taken place since May 1, 2011 are currently being uploaded, and should all be available by tomorrow. Just go here…. http://jjhortonphotography.com.instaproofs.com Here’s what you’ll see. Just click on your shoot, and order what you’d like! I hope this makes it easier for everyone. If you had a shoot done prior to May 1st, and would like your shoot just added to the proofing gallery, just let me know and I’ll be glad to add it!
