Laughing is not optional - it is mandatory.

Murmuration

Some days leave us lacking a creative energy. A loss of movement or motion forward. But this video inspires us. Reminds us of the natural beauty and inspiration surrounding us every day. And if we were ever so lucky to encounter a murmuration as in this video, we would be privy firsthand to the amazing and magical capabilities of what naturally surrounds us.

Thank you to Sarah Beth Brown for sharing this with us. Amazing.

Post-This

The power of post-its: An original paper concept developed in the seventies and launched in the US in 1980. Here in this video, this classic, original and life changing product pays homage to a man that has changed all our lives. Steve Jobs. Enjoy.

Say Cheese!

Or as my little one says when the camera is out, "Say Pizza Pie!". Why pizza pie, I have no idea. But if she at least looks at and acknowledges the camera, then we are one step closer to getting a picture of her. Because getting pictures of kids is stressful, not to mention the fact that I am rarely in the photos because I am always the one behind the lens. 

We are here to help you take the stress out of the holiday photo this year. Treat yourself to a thirty-minute photo session with Shannon Gray at Express Yourself in Downtown Basalt. On Saturday, November 12th from noon - 4 p.m. {during BASH!} we will be offering thirty-minute slots for you and the kids (or just the kids - go ahead and sneak into The Brick Pony for a much deserved glass of wine). For $125, the lovely and talented Shannon will then give you eight of the best photos in digital format. You can print, re-print, gift, re-gift and oooh and ahhh over them as much as you want. All without having to do a crazy dance behind the camera. Now that is the best gift I will give myself this year.

Call 970-927-2533 or email amy@expressyourselfbasalt.com 

to reserve your spot today!
