girl loves friday.

 
happy happy joy joy.
friday.
couldn't have come sooner. 

I wanted to blog all week but it was impossible to squeeze some extra time. And now I've forgotten all the things I wanted to blog about.
Really need to start keeping a notebook.  

Yet another big step towards my 2011 goal. I finally launched my photography website.
Check it out and let me know what you think. I may just have a give-away for one or two lucky comments. :)
And a quick survery about the website...
1. Should I add music?
2. Should I add "photography" to the end of lifelovepaper?

onto girl loves.

makes me want to redo my shelves. found here.

I'm totally infatuated with this mom's documentation of daily life.

wardrobe envy. desperately wanting to buy new clothes but not until all this extra baby weight is off.  
 

awesome.  
 
hope you all have a fabulous weekend!

xot.

the photog site is wonderful. loved all teh photos. especially the newborn with the candycane heart. =) i think some music would suit it well. norah jones comes to mind. lil guy's getting big !~

Just checked out your site Tina, it looks wonderful! The only things I would maybe recommend are including where you are located (I didn't see it anywhere on the site), a link to a future matching blog (?), and there's a typo in the Gallery tabs --> "Maternity". Other than that, beautiful, so proud and happy for you! :)

[vee]

so proud of you, was so enthralled with it didn't see typos but I love it!! personally i dislike music on professional sites but that is my 2 cents. have a great weekend!!

[DeAnn L]

I love the site. Adding Photography to the name is good, but I don't think necessary. Music, not sure. Maybe just to the gallery if you could do that. Um, other than that, I am so proud for you and was super excited to see Stephs pictures under the Seniors page!!

[DondreaB]

I love the new site and your photography! I don't think you need music for the site as a whole. I've seen some photographers add certain music themed toward the type of gallery - wedding or baby. If you do decide to add music, make it something light and maybe instrumental only.

[charlane]

love those tiny pencil carvings. i personally don't care for music on sites either and automatically mute it; however, when courting clients instead of peers - low key, mood music might be a nice idea - i would just make it where it can be readily turned off. *off to check out the site*

[Barb]

Congrats on getting the site up!

I like the way photography looks in the name right now - small and on a second line.

I would add some kind of music to the homepage, but that's just me.

[Jennifer]

the site looks beautiful! but no music, please. I really do hate when websites have music because I usually having something else already playing..

[Wendy]

I love the new site!! Congratulations! You are definitely talented. I would add the word to your blog title. And my opinion, I'm not a fan of music on a website. I hate having to mute a website when I am in a place that isn't friendly to having sound on. But of course that's just me. :o)

[Patty]

Congratulations, it looks wonderful!!!!! I think that you should go without music, let the pictures do all the talking:)

[Morgan]

Lovely! I really like the layout, and of course your photos are beautiful! I like the different categories in the gallery and the slideshow of photos on the first page. I don't think it's necessary to add "photography" to your title, because it would make it really long. I like how you wrote it on the page, with LLP big and P little.
Oh, and no to the music suggestion!! Or at least have it where people would have to actively turn it on?

[Theresa S.]

The new site looks really nice. I for one don't like to be greeted with music when I first open up a site. I mute it as fast as possible. Someone suggested music in the galleries based on the theme--wedding, etc., I think that's a good idea.

Tina, I love your new website. It is beautiful. Please, no music. The photography on the banner is beautiful. I like the wording of the title exactly the way you have it. I like the way 'photography' is below. When I clicked on the Proofing tab, nothing happened. Said it was 'loading' but just stayed like that and didn't load anything. The photo of you is beautiful. Wonderful job.

[Amy Gomez]

The new site is lovely. Personally I don't care for music, but that is IMHO! What do you think of life.love.paper.photos instead or photography??? Just a thought! Beautiful baby btw

[Stephanie]

love the site - clean and well organized. The only thing I might suggest is to add your location or the locations in which you would shoot. I'd opt for no music since it is a professional site. I wish you well!

[Natalie]

Love that polaroid print...so inspiring. the hearts remind me of mrs grossman. and congrats on the photo website! :)
