Souvenir Foto School: Day 21 - T for Thread

Hi friends! Just popping in quickly to share my completed assignment for Souvenir Foto School. Today we finally have beautiful sunny weather, but even still I struggled to capture that light in my photos. I'm not exactly sure why. If I had a bit more time on my hands I would have messed around with it until I figured it out.

Anyhow, I ended up using the double foam core board bounce trick (that I shared in this post) to try to get as much natural light as possible into the shots. Overall they really are a lot murkier than I would prefer, but I like them enough to leave them alone (okay...I didn't exactly leave them completely alone since I did brighten them a tad in photoshop).

And now I'm off to get a haircut. I've been loving my shorter cut that I got in January, and am thinking about taking it a bit shorter still. Fingers crossed that it turns out okay and I don't walk out of the salon looking like a Q-tip. xo Ez

Would you be willing to share what the orange print fabric is? what designer/collection?

Thanks!

So gorgeous! My favorite one in your series from the foto school so far!

Hi Kalle! Unfortunately the selvedge is almost gone from the cut of fabric I have, and there is no designer or manufacturer information listed on the portion remaining. The only bit of info I can think of to share, is that I purchased the fabric at a JoAnn's fabric store several months ago. It's possible that they might carry that fabric in a store near you or even online. Sorry I don't have more useful info for you.
