Description

I had just finished making a wreath with a autumn look and I wanted to see it photographed. Evelyn, however, was a little less than thrilled to be the model this time.

I love the autumn colors and garland! Her expression has a hint of sadness...maybe sad to see the summer go? she is a beautiful subject. #322645

Sometimes those are the best portraits...when they are just being themselves! This is lovely and her skin tones and all go so well with the wreath...she definitely has the look for fall fashion! #1927094

Great capture Kimberly. I love her expression- how did you make the wreath? #1927465

This is adorable, Kimberly! #1927772

Thank you all for your comments. Trisha, here is how I made the wreath. I took pipe cleaners and covered them in brown ribbon so they didn't show. (Used a glue gun and wrapped the ribbon around the pipe cleaners.) Then I found the leaves and pinecones and such together on a "flower" bundle at a craft store, I pulled it apart and used a glue gun to glue them where I wanted them on the wreath. Hope that makes sense. Thanks again. #1927828
