Pink and turquoise

I am loving these colors...pink and turquoise. I would love to see a studio decorated in these colors.  Wouldn't you love the little pink house as a studio...seriously cute!

Savvy Sale






The Savvy Sale starts now and runs for the next 24 hours! Enter the coupon code savvysale and you will get 20% off the new fabulous Savvy flooring pattern…Northern Barnwood.

We didn’t think it would be fair to leave out all of the other patterns in the Savvy flooring line…so for the next 24 hours, you can use the coupon code savvysale to save 20% off those also!

**The sale is good only on the larger two sizes {46×66 and 25×60} Savvy flooring.

Since we love a sale, we are also including the 20% discount on all of our digital products! This also will only last 24 hours…it will end tomorrow at 8am est.

The new flooring is the same great flooring as the original barnwood flooring…just a new pattern that gives you something different to offer clients as a backdrop. The colors in the new flooring, the Northern Barnwood, are much richer with some beachy blues and rustic browns. This is my favorite one yet! In the photographs above, I used the largest rug, the 46×66.

Enjoy the sale and stock up while you can.

readers share~


I love to see images from other photographers using templates from the Savvy Store.

These images were sent in by Beth Glisson from Fairhope, Alabama. These are adorable! Great clients gifts.

The To Do Memo Boards would make a great add on for your clients booking a Spring portrait. These are a Savvy favorite!

Thanks Beth~

help for Japan~


The sadness has filled my heart. I can’t bear to watch the news and see the devastation the people of Northern Japan have endured. The thought of children searching endlessly for their parents…the thought of parents searching desperately for their children. I ache when I think of what these people are going through. I want to help…I want so bad to help them. I will kiss my husband goodbye soon as his ship leaves to help out. We are safe here. We are on the island of Kyushu, hundreds of miles from Tokyo and Fukushima. Life is still normal here minus the sadness for our Northern neighbors. I’ve mentioned before about how wonderful the Japanese people are…the generosity is overwhelming. I feel such a connection to this country and will always be proud to say I have lived here.
I am now asking for your help. If you would like to donate , please consider donating to the site I have set up. The money will go directly to Shelter Boxes USA. They provide humanitarian relief and aid in the form of equipment and materials that provide shelter, warmth and comfort to people displaced by natural or other disasters. They are helping in Japan right now providing the much needed boxes of supplies to some of the over 130,00 families who have lost everything. I think if we can all donate a small amount, it will add up to a great amount. Any amount is appreciated. If you can’t help financially, then help us spread the word about the page.

Here’s the link to the page… http://www.firstgiving.com/fundraiser/thesavvyphotographer/japan-disaster-relief
Please feel free to share the link with anyone…the more we reach…the MORE WE REACH!
