Let’s start here… Alea Moore is ridiculous. One of the most talented photographers I know. I made her do her least favorite thing – a photo shoot without LIGHT. Yep, NO SUN on a wintery day.
I had photos due for publicity reasons and there was literally not another window. I normally wouldn’t let a person pull a bed into the woods for the old Christmas card. (well maybe)
I stalk Alea through Instagram and Facebook and she’s a dear friend of contributor Ashley.
I knew she would be the one to capture some family shots and my head shots for my upcoming book.
Short Update on Book
Do you know how weird it is to say I have a book? If you haven’t noticed, I cannot complete one sentence without a typo. I basically talk through typing using profound words like “such as” and “duh.” All the English majors and those dreaming of writing a book must be kicking the screen right now. I’ll explain later why anyone should even consider this material.
So…. officially announcing the title of the book! Ready? 🙂
“In This House, We Will Giggle”
Making Virtues, Love and Laughter a Daily Part of Your Family Life.
Releasing Fall 2014, published by Waterbrook Multnomah.
Today is the very short version of the story. I’m so excited and so very grateful for your part in this story. That’s the name and there are TONS of our photos by the brilliant Alea Moore here. Please go see her handy work – especially when she has the sun on her side. She got two FREEZING, wild girls to do all of that. Without candy. Swear. I might have brought a whoopee cushion.
The Long Version of the Book
So, for writers or ANYONE pursuing a dream way bigger than your abilities….I really want to tell you my story. It is LONG and it reveals there is a God. Seriously. So, in the coming days – I’ll share it in parts for those that are interested. His plan is always better.
Who wants a FREE photo session with Alea Moore?
Yes! You read it right! I am so excited. Sweet Alea has agreed to giveaway one free photoshoot for one of YOU (after New Year). It has to be done during a weekday AND in Atlanta. So, if you will travel – enter your name. Or if you are from Atlanta – duh, enter!
THIS IS HUGE. Friends, yes, you can enter. We will do it random and fair. Swear.
Such a great deal – you get digitals image sent to you and you can use and print however you wish! Ah! Dreamy!
One special photo shoot years ago was equally amazing but I couldn’t afford to get any of the photos. It made me really sad. I love how Alea sets this up. You pay for her mad skills and then they are yours – for life.
