Hello. My name is Kelly. And I’m a shopaholic.
I blame it on my mother(who is a certified shopaholic…and also, my personal shopper when it comes to my children). But I don’t buy clothes or shoes or purses (my mother will attest to this, I’ve been wearing the same pair of shoes every day for 6 years now).
I buy props. Hats, blankets, chairs…these are the things I lust after. This weekend we were figuring out how to build shelves for my prop closet (which is nearly the size of my shooting space)…and I think with a little bit of clever planning…I will have room to feed my addiction for at least another year. Then I might have to slow down…or have a sale.
This little boy is cute all on his own, without any ‘prop’ help…but I just couldn’t help myself! Since he wasn’t sitting up on his own, we stuck a ‘boppy’ pillow inside the suitcase…he was all kinds of cozy in there

He started out a little serious…or maybe I should say ‘scholarly’?

Here’s a little before/after shot from his newborn session. Look how much he’s grown in 6 months (same box)!
This last one is my favorite…just the basics…no frills

Oh for goodness sakes! Those are stunning! And I have a weird love for pinwheels so I really liked that little touch!
he is sooo cute!
Beautiful pictures ! Love the suitcases your pictures make me want to head out and prop shop.
The one with the sock monkey kills me -probably my favorite ever. Love how he is mirroring its arm with his arm.
I can add a few things to your closet..we will have to talk!
And I bought a pinwheel kit at Micheals last week on clearance just to see how to make them!
