Q. May I post your DIY, craft project, or photos on my blog?

A.   Yes, but let’s start this new mutual relationship off on the right foot by adhering to the following guidelines:

You may post up to 2 photos of a DIY project, craft project, recipe, or other decor inspiration post with links to my original blog post.  You also have permission to pin any of my photos on Pinterest.

Q. Who does the photography for your site?

A.   Unless credited otherwise, I do!  I’m a professional photographer that specializes in fine art portraiture (pets and people).  I’m also a graphic & web designer which comes in very handy in so many ways! 

Feel free to visit my photography portfolios here and here.

Q. What photography equipment do you use?

A.  I’m a big Nikon fan and I currently use a Nikon D500 DSLR camera.  I mainly use 3 of my favorite Nikkor prime lenses:  AF-S DX NIKKOR 35mm f/1.8G, AF-S NIKKOR 50mm f/1.8G, and AF-S NIKKOR 85mm f/1.8G.   

I also use this tripod from Neweer.  A tripod is very important for interior photography. And finally, I use Case Air’s wireless tethering system which has been quite an incredible tool.

I use Photoshop CS6 and CC, and On1 software to edit my photos.
