    Are we able to use this for our own personal use? Or can we buy rights or something? I’d just like to use the poem for my desk :)

How to avoid looking like a HOT MESS when shooting in excessive heat | Angelsea Urban

Posted inAngie,Business Buzz,P31 Writers,Stuff We LOVE

As a female photographer, the thoughts always cross your mind when prepping for a summertime shoot. What do I wear? How can I keep my hair from frizzing in the heat? My make up from running as I sweat? Especially when photographing weddings, where everyone around is looking their absolute best, you feel like a…

    Great tips… the deodorant on your face one is a little alarming but sounds like it could really work!

    After reading this I decided to try deodorant on the back of my neck because that is where I start sweating the most…my hair which is longest in long time just sits there and the sweating begins. I totally worked. I am going to get my own deodorant labeled for my neck cuz I don’t want to share with my pits. LOL. SO GLAD I READ THIS POST!

Posted inBusiness Buzz,Inspiration,Stuff We LOVE

So excited to have wedding photographer Alicia Candelora of No Eye Has Seen Photography guest blogging for us on the blog today. When she first shared with me this idea, I thought it was GENIUS.

Stuff We LOVE ~ Instagram

Posted inKaren,P31 Writers,Stuff We LOVE

When someone gets an iPhone for the first time and asks me what my favorite app is I don’t just tell them instagram… I practically scream it…. then if they don’t believe me, it’s usually followed by me grabbing their phone, setting up an account for them and then just saying.  Trust me… It’s AMAZING!…

    This is so funny that you posted this today. I JUST got an iPhone on Monday night–my first smartphone. And you better believe that instagram was the first app that I installed. My friends were all on it, and I knew I was missing out :) So happy to be a part of it now. You can find my feed if you want! bethany_chase :) I am following yours already!

    Could not agree more! Instagram is HANDS DOWN my single favorite facet of social media. Maybe its because I see in photographs or am a little voyeuristic (in a non sexual way) or what but I LOVE IT! I too, have ‘met’ amazing ppl through it & its even helped me when I travel by allowing me to ask for local recommendations! You have a great feed & I can’t wait to meet you at the retreat in Oct (another thing I learned about first on IG!) Have a fabulous day!
