I could get lost in Georgianna Lane’s work.

Her images are so full of light and inspiration.  I love the softness in her touch – the way she makes the simple bits and baubles from nature stand out on their own.  Oh, how I long for warmer days!

How adorable are these prints by Sharon Montrose?  And YES, they are real, live animals that live in animal sanctuaries and rescue organizations.

I am inspired by the simplicity of these images.  You don’t need much more when your models are as adorable as these animals!  I picked my favorite three prints here – find your own favorites over at Sharon’s etsy shop.

Kimberly recently introduced me to her work – and I am so happy that she did.  Her shop is entitled Create, Love, Laugh and these are the exact emotions that her images convey.  I love the dreamy landscapes she captures.

When you look at thing differently, stories emerge.  There is beauty in the everyday.  And when people learn to look for it, they’ll find inspiration in the least likely places.  That’s when the narrative in the situation and in the subject comes into focus.  And even fashion is dull without the right style.

I am moved beyond words by these images – utterly, totally, and completely inspired! Prepare to get lost in his work: Cade Martin’s website, facebook, twitter.

Kitty’s photos evoke a sense of light and happiness for me.  Her style is simplistic and gorgeous! I am inspired by her captures of everyday items in such beautiful ways.
