The moment I viewed the work of Mandy Lynne, I was transported back to the sweet innocence of my childhood. Mandy Lynne’s Skippy Designs truly bring a bit of sunshine to each day. I am inspired by her focus on vintage pink and aqua – what a lovely combination!
I think that my favorite is “love letters.” What about you?
Please visit Skippy Designs etsy shop, website, and blog!

Maybe it’s the soft colors, or the whimsical feel. Or maybe it’s how each image captures such a beautiful moment in time. One thing’s for sure – Alice B. Garden’s images are dreamy and light. I love the way she makes such simple things magical!
Get lost in her world ~ Visit her etsy shop, blog, and flickr stream for more inspiration! And if you are interested in portraiture, please see her amazing work!

I want a Sunday kind of love
A love to last past Saturday night
And I’d like to know that it’s more than love at first sight.
And I want a Sunday kind of love.
…..
And my arms need someone
Someone to enfold
To keep me warm when Mondays and Tuesdays grow cold
Love for all my life to have and to hold.
Oh, and I want a Sunday kind of love
~Etta James

I instantly fell in love with the above print, I Love New York (2), by Irene Suchocki.
I am reminded of a Sunday Kind of Love …..

Samantha Lamb’s Photography makes me want to run out to a field and spend the entire day there!
She has a magical way of capturing light and telling stories with each one of her images - pulling you into another time, another place where you could get lost for hours.
Find more of Samantha’s work on her website, online shop, flickr stream, and etsy shop.

When I got married six years ago, I gave very little thought to my wedding photographer. If only I knew then what I know now!
Heather and Jon, of One Love Photo, make weddings absolutely magical! Their artistic style of wedding photography is so different and so much more beautiful than your average cookie cutter wedding photos. They use a combination of digital, medium format, through the viewfinder, homemade lenses, and plastic toy cameras. They bring style, grace, and a mysterious elegance to each and every image. I simply adore their work.
“Our main goal is to create un-traditional photographs of your family and friends being their fabulous selves. To capture your natural love on your wedding day with a funky artistic twist.”
And when we decide to renew our vows….. I know exactly who I want behind the camera.
As their blog suggests, the photos alone are reason enough to get married!
Visit Heather and Jon’s website, blog, and flickr stream for more of their work.

Charleston, South Carolina based Pastry Chef Helen McSweeney is gifted in so many ways. As you can see, her work is absolutely amazing! Not only is she talented in the kitchen, she is a photographer as well!
Her food photography is exceptional – the attention to detail, styling, and the composition of her images are always inspiring for me.
Please visit Helen’s portfolio, flickr account, and etsy shop. And lucky for us, she shares her recipes on her blog, Tartelette!
