A great website to check out! 10,000 people were paid two cents each to draw a sheep facing left. 660 drawings were rejected and the rate of sheep came in at a rate of 11 per hour. Have you been sent a sheep? www.thesheepmarket.com
Spend time with the family. "Happy Feet" is in theaters today. Starring Elijah Wood, Robin Williams, Brittany Murphy, Nicole Kidman and Hugh Jackman. Another triumphant, playful and deeply spiritual animation classic. www.happyfeetmovie.com
I love this description on their website "Original printed patterns inspired by thoughts of ancient, vinyl-padded, patio furniture, well-worn, flannel pjs and musty books. Created from fond memories and intended to dress-up the events of our lives. www.funnelpapergoods.com

Famous photographer Brianna Graham is in final stages of design & concept. This website is so smoking hot. Nothing like you have ever seen from Blu.
Congrats to Brianna who who made the cover of the November issue of Rangefinder Magazine.
Brianna has been working very closely with Blu's Creative Director Harald in building her vision. Here's what Brianna had to say "Harald is taking my vision for this site to another level. I scoured the internet for any source of inspiration possible, and sent him a jumble of what I loved. He has taken it and created the most amazing, perfect collection that fits everything that I am into right now. This site will be full of texture, character and a little vintage charm. Put simply, IT'S GOING TO ROCK THE HOUSE!!
I asked our famous photographers this- Accumulating an impressive portfolio isn't your only priority, what drives you to take photographs?"
Audrey had this to tell me "One major downside to being in high demand is that when I am off...I'm off. While my goals lately are to really spend sometime photographing the everyday moments in my own family... what drives me is doing the same for other parents. While getting the really big orders feel good...what really feels good is
when a parent says "You really captured my child/family...and we couldn't be happier." That is when I know I've done my job...and motivates me to continue. People inspire me." www.alwphotography.com
Skye had this to tell me "Accumulating an impressive portfolio is a "business priority", yes, but it is not what drives me to take photographs. What drives me to take photographs is passion. A passion that I cannot turn on or off; only hope to
satisfy it with each click of the shutter. " www.workofheartphoto.com

Brianna had this to tell me "Accumulating an impressive portfolio isn't nearly as important to me as finding inspiration in the people that I photograph. I feel when you connect with your client, and get honest moments in return, it far surpasses shooting for yourself to achieve the 'perfect portfolio' with only yourself in mind. Interaction, and the responses generated by it are the basis of what I do, and the reason why I love it so dearly." www.briannagraham.com
Barb Uil had this to tell me "Being around kids is like breathing.. I do it because kids are amazing. I reacon they hold the secret to life. I wish I could hang out all day long."
woot-woot congratulations to Barb Uil for her shots in this month's Australian Family Circle Magazine!
