I recently had the privilege to spend some time with my friends Tim and Steph in order to help Steph get her brand new business off the ground!
Steph has been thrust into this new venture because she has such great taste and an eye for design and color. She painted a couple of frames just for fun recently and, well, the short story is that everyone loves them and wants her to sell them. So, she has decided to move forward and just see what happens!
Steph wants to sell her frames with my photographs in them, and to have me take photos of them for her website and any future publications.
Before we officially began the photo shoot for the frames, I took Tim and Steph outside to grab a few photos. These two are so much fun to photograph! I love their energy and interaction!
And now for Steph’s amazing creations!
Here is a detail photo, showing the perfect distressing that Steph does with the Benjamin Moore paint she uses…
A beautiful frame with a photo of Tim and Steph’s son Reece that I took a few months ago…
A close up of gorgeous scalloped trim…
A set of three amazing frames that coordinate beautifully, and we all thought they were perfectly conducive for these wedding shots. Two of them have the scalloped trim and the one in the middle has gorgeous pearl polka dots.
I think this is one of Steph’s favorite frames, and I can’t blame her! The photo is from a session I did for Jason and Kellie a few months ago!
Here is the Steph showing the magnitude of this frame…it is 30×40 inches, and it is stunning!
If you are interested in Steph’s amazing frames, she will have a site up soon for Mango Tree Frames! If you are a Chattanooga local, you can already shop for them at Charlotte’s Web in North Chattanooga! I will keep you posted!
