A perfect babyshower!
Those of you who know me know that I LOVE to plan parties! Since the moment Daphanie told us she was preggo, Laura, Jayne and I have been hard at work designing and planning her babyshower. We knew we wanted it to be unique and different and of course totally awesome! We wanted to have [...]
perfect oliver price!
I am very excited to announce the newest addition to our family – my nephew, Oliver Price!!!! He is SO precious and I could not wait to love on him and bring him into the studio for his first photo shoot! Amanda and I have been brainstorming since she and Andy first found out they were expecting, [...]
franklin needs a home!
Hi, everybody! This isn’t exactly a normal Picsee post, but I know that our blog reaches far and wide, we have readers from everywhere, and word-of-mouth is a powerful thing! That being said, I’d like you all to meet adorable Franklin – he’s our 5 year old terrier mix, and sadly, he needs a new home. My [...]
we love scentsy, you should too!
We always have an awesome scent (or two!) going in our studio, and people are always asking us about it…so for those of you who have ever wondered or are looking for a fab way for your home or office to smell great – meet Scentsy! We were first introduced to Scentsy by one of our clients, [...]
excitement at the studio…
As most of you guys know, Becky has been out of the studio since we went on Christmas break due to a slipped disc in her back. Her surgery last Friday went extremely well and today she will be stopping by for an hour or two! To say that Cristy, Jennifer, and I are excited [...]
vacation time…
Hey there! We’ve been super busy and we have unintentionally neglected our blog! We have so many new and exciting things to post in the upcoming weeks, but for now enjoy this small glimpse of warmth!
Chris and I took a much needed vacation cruise to the Bahamas back in January and I thought after all [...]
santa’s secret workshop!
Welcome one and all to a special VIP tour of Picsee Studio, behind the velvet (linen, actually) curtains! Even though we still have a few weeks until December 25th, the hustle and bustle of the season has hit us square in the noggins! It is SOOOOO awesome to see all the UHmazing products coming in [...]
another year older!
Well, it’s official – my baby niece Annabelle is no longer a “baby” : she is a little girl! Her Fancy Nancy themed birthday party was earlier today, and after watching her run around, open presents, blow out candles and pick flowers it is so completely obvious to me that kids, these “babies” that we squeeze and love and smother with smooches, grow [...]
originality at its finest!
Okay, so I know we don’t usually share funny YouTube stuff on the blog (though we might just have to start!) – but this video literally made my day, and I couldn’t resist the possibility of brightening someone else’s day with it, too!
This video just reminded me that it’s important to be yourself. [...]
a bit of monday inspiration!
I love what I do. WE (Jennifer, Christy and I) love what WE do. Every day. That is a super amazing thing to be able to say, for anybody. And it seems like I’ve said it over and over, but we truly consider ourselves blessed to do what we do. Now and then we receive [...]
The Frozen North, Ch. 2 : a day at the beach!
I love Lake Michigan, and I really miss living close to a large body of water. I was a beach girl growing up, spending practically all my summer days at the Indiana Dunes Nat’l Lakeshore, and I always enjoyed watching the changing of seasons there. I remember Kevin’s reaction the first time I took him to the lake in July of 2001 – he [...]
The Frozen North, Ch. 1 : baby it’s cold outside!
If you’ve been following our blog for awhile, you probably already know that I don’t originally hail from the south – though I love the beauty here and after 7 years am finally starting to develop a southern accent, I was born and raised in northern Indiana, near Chicago and Lake Michigan. My hubby Kevin, [...]
jennifer’s sis and her rockin’ family!
Cristy is Jennifer’s beautiful sister and this is her gorgeous family!! Jennifer was really supposed to blog these images, but she was taking forever to write her heartfelt, sentimental message to Cristy, so I just thought ‘I’m posting those pictures, dang it! Jennifer can tell Cristy all the sentimental stuff in person!’ Cristy, I know you’ve been waiting [...]
let it snow!
Growing up in what my husband has affectionately termed ”The Frozen North” (i.e. northwest Indiana, on Lake Michigan), I am truly in my element on days like today. I have to admit that I was delighted to see the beautiful white blanket covering our front lawn this morning! Jenn, Christy and I have been photographing holiday sessions, designing awesome Christmas cards, whipping [...]
lucky number 7!
Today’s blog is about something personal - but I promise that tomorrow we’ll be back to our regularly scheduled blogging!
7 years ago today I was on the strip in crazy Las Vegas, and it was there that I wore a red dress and walked nervously down the aisle in front of a small group of 9 friends and family members [...]
