Songs of Freedom – On an Angels Wings

Rise Up Angels

Putting a voice into an art piece – has unleashed a new world of epic proportions, A shift using creative Art Therapy as a means to release the darkness from within ~ Art made with the Heart.  From darkness to Light, all will be set right.  Here we go, the message is simple.

 

Shattered Heart, Broken Bones
Fragmented into a million pieces
Quietly collect the pieces one by one
Twist them back together
In the shadows of the night.
Fate turned it into something beautiful
Because we knew you could.

 

I believe in you,
Be the Light and Shine on my Friends.  Hold space for others and share compassion, intermixed with kindness
{NOW}  that is sweet music to my ears.  No matter what and no matter where, you are never alone.  There is always music.

Good Vibes only – old friends & new friends

Style Guide {Family Edition}

TellaStory Photography

Clothing Style Guide :  What to wear for your Session {Family Edition}

Comfort is Key!!  Choose clothing that makes you feel like a millions bucks and flatters your body shape. You will feel like yourself and your confidence will shine in every photo.

The good news, you can shop directly from your closet!!  If you need an excuse to buy new, I’m all for that too!  What’s your Style?  A little planning will go a long ways when it comes to pulling the outfits together.

What should you wear?  I may not be able to answer that 100% – I am not a style queen;  But I do know some amazing stylist who are happy to help pull your wardrobe look together, let me know if you’d like the referral.  This list was curated from a photographers perspective.  Less is more with special elements & “pop” layers.  Some things to think about as you prepare for our session together

Color & Texture

Have fun with layers as you plan your wardrobe.  Flat fabrics & neutrals may sound like great choices, but don’t limit yourself.  Dig deep into your closet for complimentary colors, or shades of the same color to bring that pop of contrast and style to your look.

Choose colors that compliment your hair & skin tone. Adding a pop of color may bring out the color in your eyes and make you sparkle. As a general rule of thumb, stay away from bright neon colors, they can reflect on your skin and distract from your face.  Stick with solid colors, the tend to stay in style.  A simple white tee and jeans create that simple classic and timeless look.

Accessories

Adding accessories can give a quick change and really bring the look together.  Hats, Scarves, jackets or favorite belt.

Undergarments {the right stuff}

Ladies
Consider the underwear styles required for each outfit
IE:  nude panties under light color clothing

Certain tops may call for a strapless bra
IE: spaghetti strap spring dress, or that new sheer cute Cami.

While, My photo shop skills are good but may not be “thaaaat” good to fix – wardrobe mishaps and outsourcing editing is a must.  We hope to avoid this, by planning ahead – and potentially saving you $$ for those extra editing fee’s.

Stay True to Your Style

A great way to express yourself is through clothing. BE YOU and don’t get sucked into every trend. Choose outfits that are timeless and classic. Trust me. You’ll look back at your portraits 20 years from now and still love them.

Love will set you Free

We, unaccustomed to courage
exiles from delight
live coiled in shells of loneliness
until love leaves its high holy temple
and comes into our sight
to liberate us into life.

Love arrives
and in its train come ecstasies
old memories of pleasure
ancient histories of pain.
Yet if we are bold,
love strikes away the chains of fear
from our souls.

We are weaned from our timidity
In the flush of love’s light
we dare be brave
And suddenly we see
that love costs all we are
and will ever be.
Yet it is only love
which sets us free.

 
 
 
 
 
Love
 
 
Maya Angelou was a brave woman who spoke her mind.  As I read myself to sleep each night, I’m seeking comfort in her words.  With each paragraph, a creative thought has flowed through me and onto the page.  I have been searching and trying to regain traction in my personal life as well as my business.  A new creative push to constantly move forward yet remaining intact with my roots.  Who I am.  What I want to portray.  And how to spread that message.  I am a creative….. with that means I don’t sit still for very long, constantly moving to the next project.  Sometimes abandoning a project because something bigger, better comes up.  Other times I travel by minute- without any focus at all and spontaneously creating whatever I feel like at the moment.  This is one of those moments where spontaneity hit me.
 
With Love.
We live in a world so dark and cold, wanting to understand each other and be so bold.
But nobody speaks.
 
We watch our brothers and sisters fight, we watch our soldiers die.
But nobody speaks.
 
Why does this have to be so hard?  In the depths of my soul I can feel the turmoil
Yet nobody speaks.
 
To be heard, to make a sound, is to be ridiculed and scorned.
Bashed about, thrashed about, spoken behind one’s back.
But nobody speaks out-loud to each other.
 
Not of good, not of laughter, but of the hatred of mankind.
So love your brother, love your sister, love your friend.  May you always seek love, and spread it all around.  Until that time, when we can share and everybody with speak about the darkness that gathers in the pit of our soul.
Love is the answer.  Love is the key to unlock the secrets of the deep dark abyss.
May you always find love.  Shine love.  Share love like it has no end.

Little Black Book

Have you ever felt empowered by a self portrait?

I found myself telling clients – “there’s a reason why I became a photographer”  — so I DON’T have any photo’s of myself

I HATED having photo’s taken of me, I avoided it like the black plague.

*Photo Credit: Athena Pelton

TRUTH – I was avoiding myself.

15 years ago I felt lost, going through a dark night of the soul transition.  I no longer knew who I was, where I was going; or how to be strong for my kids.   This is the pivoting point – when I forced myself out of my comfort zone & stepped to the other side of the lens.  As much as I was scared to death to see who I was becoming …… I found the opposite happened.  I looked deep within myself to see I was there, waiting to feel alive.

Little Black Book was created to make you feel alive inside the skin that you are in.  No matter where you are in your journey –  Our team of professionals have come together for this special event.
