A Dream Come True

Well, if you were following me on instagram and facebook yesterday then you saw what was taking place at my house. I think most of us dream of having our homes featured in a magazine or other publication. I have had my own photos used in two magazines, but I had never had a real photo shoot. Yesterday my dream came true and here are some shots I grabbed around the house while it was taking place. I didn't use a tripod like I normally do so these may not be as sharp as they could be.

Gridley and Graves photographers arrived 9 am and stayed till after 7pm. Lots of equipment was brought in.

Several varieties of flowers were brought. These were sitting in a bowl of water waiting to be used.

Food like this strawberry rhubarb pie was used, too.

Not a lot of my stuff was moved or changed, but they did a different set up on the coffee table and with the furniture in this room. It was fun watching how they would change the room for the perfect shot.

Mr. Savvy's recliner got kicked to the curb. Sorry, dear.

This would not be a good daily set up, but in the camera's eye this looked right.

It was a very long day and I was thrilled to have my home chosen. Mine was not shot for a monthly magazine, but for one of those specialty ones. So I'm not sure if it will show up in maybe a fall issue or it may be spring of 2015. So now the hard part of waiting.

Looks like we are in for another major winter storm event here and this one could be worse. I pray we don't have an ice storm and lose power. That shouldn't happen, if it does, until tomorrow so be sure to come back tonight for our party!
