PHOTO SHOOT

If you follow me on Instagram then you heard the news!  The project that I have been working on for the last year was photographed last week for one of my favorite magazines.....Atlanta Homes and Lifestyles.

It was shot by Erica George Dines who also shot a project I did 12 years ago for AH&L.

She is the ultimate professional.....sometimes taking 15 minutes to perfect a shot asking each of us to also take a look and make sure everything is good.

It was 2 very long days....I had my Fit Bit on and did 23,000 steps in one day.  Boom!

I took a few detail shots......

I spent 2 days before the shoot ironing all of the bedding so it was crisp:)

This is Michael's [Michael Ladisic Fine Homes] personal home [his 4th in our neighborhood!] and the 3rd one that I have worked on.

It took over a year to build and the detailing is amazing.  He was very involved with the design and put together quite the team starting with Matthew Quinn for the kitchen, Architect Linda MacArthur and landscape designer Graham Pittman & Assoc. 

I think he bought every boxwood in the city.

Erica was joined by the  editor of AH&L Elizabeth Ralls,  Blake Dowling Weeks [who did all of the flowers and helped style] and the talented Eleanor Roper.....stylist extraordinar.  

 

I learned so much just watching her.  Talk about edit.  I went home and looked at my house through new eyes. Crikey.....what a hot mess. 

Anyway......the good news is that it's going to be in the January issue.....Merry Christmas to me:)

Alrighty then......it's Friday.  I am damn happy about that.
