Picture Day Prep

 Hey Friends,

As we announced a couple of weeks ago, we are releasing a new music album. Part of the behind-the-scenes work that needed to be completed was photos for the album artwork. 

Our timelines were tight, and we did not have time to travel out of state to visit one of our great photographer friends. Mom and I ran the miles and tried to work the map every way we could, but we could not figure it out. Travel for the photos was not possible!

Thankfully, we had Google, and we found a photographer locally whose work looked really, really good! She is just a few miles down the road. Mom contacted her last week, and thankfully, she had an opening. We were also very grateful that she had a lovely studio. The weather was in the upper 90s all week. We already do not do well with outside photos, and the heat was another major factor.

Mom and I put our heads together and picked out our wardrobe for the photos. Then we had another question. What are we going to do with our hair?

We called in the experts, and they came running to our rescue! They can work miracles with hair, and they came bearing the tools of the trade to get the job done.

Thank you so much to Sis. Valerie Burris and Sis Emily Roberts! We were so thrilled that they were available! I know it took valuable time out of their busy schedules!

I have included a few pictures of the process! Mom and I both enjoyed getting pampered! We were thrilled with the outcome! I made mine last as long as possible! Then I hated to wash my hair!











Here is a selfie that I took with my beautiful mother, post photographs. 


Hopefully, we will get to see the pictures from the photographer soon. Now, we are waiting on an email from her.

Thank you again to our wonderful friends for rescuing us! It was great to get to spend some more time Valerie and Emily. We love you all so much!

There you have a sneak peek into our Picture Day Prep!
