Tweak Boutique | Fabulous Jewelry for Fabulous People

I'd like to introduce you all to some of the most fabulous and unique jewelry I have ever seen, available exclusively at the Tweak Boutique!

As designer Caroline Bruce's website states, "tweak is a funny-elegant boutique jewelry line by Ontario designer Caroline Bruce. Every piece of tweak is a study in colour, texture and a touch of the unexpected. And every piece is a guaranteed compliment. Just ask of the Tweak Boutique's already faithful followers. From teenagers on up, the versatile pieces are show stoppers that can fit effortlessly into any wardrobe." Her jewelry is created from natural stones and real orchid specimens preserved in resin! How cool is that?

Due to the vast selection of jewelry and the wide array of different pieces I'd like to show you, I'm going to do this in a 3-part series. Today you're viewing the duet, bloom, and fuss collections. Feast your eyes on these gorgeous works of art!

Danielle | Greenfield High School Senior Photographer

Danielle, her mom and I met downtown this weekend to get some quick senior pictures before she graduates next month. Danielle currently plays softball and is going to be playing at IUPUI this fall, so we snuck onto their softball field and shot a few frames and  barely touched  *ahem* ruined their perfectly raked ball diamond. (Sorry, IUPUI.)

Danielle, it was great meeting you! I hope you enjoyed yourself as much as I did. :) I wish you the best of luck next year!





Danielle, please don't hate me for this picture. I think you look beautiful when you laugh. :)

2010 Hottest Colors | Indianapolis High School Senior Photograper

Spring is here and along with spring comes the time to redecorate and repaint. Most people instantly think of walls when it comes to painting but if your whole bedroom or dorm room is not an option, consider a chair or another piece of furniture. It's a smaller project, costs less money, and doesn't take as much time to paint. Plus, if you decide you don't like the color or want to repaint it again next year, it's a quick fix!

The bright colors that have been popular for the past few years are still around, but they are being toned down a bit to create some beautiful muted colors for 2010. These elegant shades will fit into any bedroom and even mix and match great with bold colors such as sunflower yellow or watermelon pink!

The colors trends of the year are great, but the greatest trend of all right now in color is personalization. So regardless of what color the fashion magazines tell you to paint your bedroom, it's always best to go with your gut. If you're head-over-heels in love with the color blue, then by all means, paint your bedroom blue! But whatever you do, have some fun this spring by painting something!
