Say Cheese!

A few weeks ago I did a photo shoot with one of my favorite photographers, Tim Toal. Tim owns TJT Photography and photographs everything from commercial products, to senior photos and fashion, to landscapes. Take a second to look at his site and let me know if you are interested in working with him!

So, here is the story. First, I am fortunate enough that Tim was able to book me so last minute. As most of you know, I recently donated 8+ inches of my hair, which is a wonderful cause, but can sometimes be a BIG no no in the "modeling world". After informing my agent that I had cut my hair, she said I would need new images for her website ASAP!!!

Of course Tim was the first person who came to mind, I've worked with him two or three times before and had a blast! So, I called him up and bada bing, bada boom... a week later I arrived at his studio in downtown Rochester for what turned out to be a truly successful shoot.

Check out some of my favorites...




Thank you, Tim, for these fun and fashionable images!

Cake Boss, Ace of Cakes... look out!!!

I recently discovered that I TRULY enjoy making cakes for people. I have made several birthday cakes for people over the past year and would like to share them all with you. My hope is to begin learning how to use fondant!! I hear it is tricky and time consuming, but would be worth knowing in the long run; especially since I plan to continue making cakes for different people in my life. This summer I have 2 or 3 more birthdays I will be making cakes for... pictures to come!
