Some Etsy updates

  Hey all, I finally got around to updating my listings on Etsy. My friend Lauren volunteered to be a model for me and modeled some of my geeky product. The photos turned out quite nice and Lauren was fun to work with. It was a first for both of us as I don't typically work with people and she hasn't modeled before. Through a bit of trial and error we got some lovely photos. Along with the updates to listings on Etsy I also added some new listings for some of the new stuff I made. I still have to do some new photos of the rupee pillows, so those aren't up yet. The delay there is mostly because I only have one rupee pillow left after the TooManyGames con, so I kind of need to make more. Speaking of conventions, Donna and I will be at MAGFest again the first weekend of January 2014. We're both pretty excited about it, after two conventions we're getting into the groove of making product and how to lay it out nicely on our tables for display. 
 This fall is gonna be busy for me as I have to make stuff for MAGFest as well as come up with a photo series for my senior project at GMU. This is my last semester of college!! I'm so excited to be finishing, it has been a long time coming. Of course the scary next step after graduating is finding a "real job". Luckily I stumbled across a product photography internship for ThinkGeek, which I am most assuredly applying to. I want this internship so bad! Its the best opportunity to learn how to work in a professional environment with my camera. Also I'll learn more about studio lighting, as well as working in a studio (there's a lack of space in the townhouse to set up a studio space). My hope is that I'll get offered the internship and it will grow into a full-time job. It would make me so incredibly happy to work in an environment that embraces my geeky nature and my photography skills (especially the photography part). Haha this post is beginning to sound like me applying for the job :-p 
 Aside from the upcoming events of graduation and MAGFest I also have a wedding to plan. My fiance and I will be married on May 18 2014 with our toes in the sand at First Landing State Park. The reception will be at a beautiful restaurant called OneFish TwoFish, the food there is so amazingly delicious. There's still a few things to figure out like a florist, DJ, baker and officiant. But the really big important things like a ceremony site and reception site are all locked in. We've also hired my friend Jamie to do our photography which is awesome! Check her out here: http://www.jamiekayphoto.com/. So there's a lot on my plate as usual but it is all totally worth it, I'm looking forward to so many things in the upcoming year.
 Here's some teaser photos from my Etsy shop (Thank you again Lauren!!):
