Celebrating Eighteen and Amazing


 It's not what we wear on the outside that makes us beautiful- it's what we wear on our heart.  Christina is absolutely gorgeous.  Her heart is a rare beauty.  You see she has chosen to let adversity make her heart beautiful.  She is strong and kind, but most importantly she is compassionate. She deserves the very best of birthdays.
I have been so blessed to have her in my life. 

Happy Birthday Christina- the best is yet to come!

18 and vintage

Pure joy!
 The 1950's marked an era of fashion freedom and the wandering waistline as well as comfort and simplicity.
Watch out World!
 Christina's choice of denim paired with a bohemian top and a black high heel echo the 1950's fashion.
Happy Birthday to me!
Nothing like be 18 with your entire future ahead of you...

Christina- A return to the '50's



Christina has sunshine in her eyes... and is a perfect fit for "A Return of the '50's"

 Our shopping adventure took us to  H&M for the perfect attire for Christina's 18th birthday shoot.   An evening on the town with the talented Chelsea Marie Photography was the perfect ticket.
 The 1950's marked the end of WWII and of rationing. It also marked the boom of consumerism in the United States.  The culture of American Excess began and women wore it well. Fashion became big again with more fabric and styles to choose.  The silhouette of the woman was defined with a thin wait, defined hips, and a shapely bust.
