R.Home~May/June Photo Shoot!

The photos for the May/June issue of R.Home Magazine's, "The Goods" section, were actually taken in early March! As you can see, it was chilly and windy! However the sky was clear and sun was shining which helped us pull off the visual of a summer picnic surrounded by bright bohemian fabrics from amazing resources from around Richmond! 

We had our own little picnic after the shoot was complete!

I always set up the "scene" in my office before the shoot while the kitties critic. 




This fabric is to die for!
The scale of these birds are enormous and the colors are fantastic together.

I was so excited to see my friends, Rick and Phil, showing off their awesome backyard in this issue. A bunch of us spent New Years Day in this yard and had a blast!
