Wig shopping

So I went with my mother to pick up her wigs and it was quite the experience. I had NO idea how real those things looked.. or the many colors, cuts, etc... My mother picked out 2 wigs and I swear they look just like her real hair, even the same color. We actually had a fun time trying on the wigs, and managed to laugh quite a bit. Even Ellie tried one on too. I did also learn that I have a huge noggin! Every wig I put on basically made me look like a Q-tip. Seriously.. I looked horrible. I did manage to find this great wig that was actually a hat with some hair attached to it.. I mean could that be any better for waking up and running out on the spur of the moment to go get coffee, or whatever else you may need straight out of bed. Here is a pic of it... it was hard taking a pic of myself in the mirror. (This is straight out of the camera.. no touch ups!) It cost $120, so I decided not to get it. LOL

and here is were I look like a QT but with a red top:

And here's a look at just a few the place had to offer:

So I put the deposit down on my new Nikon D3 camera.... I can't wait for that to get in. I'm so excited!! I also bought an 85 mm 1.2 lens. It should be in next week. Everyone swears by that lens.. I'm sure it will be awesome. I can't wait to see what it does for my wedding shoots!

Today I took pictures of my friend Abby's little newborn girl Maddison. She is a huge sleep and sleeps through anything... but not today. Today she was awake and alert the whole time! Here are a couple of shots: (The second one she wasn't actually sleeping.. just closed her eyes for a sec, but I really like the photo it shows just how little she is)


So I've blogged 2 days in a row... wow. I'm really going to try and blog more. Anyway, back to work tomorrow.. have a great week!
