Service Announcement






One of the most common questions Kristin gets asked upon booking a portrait session is, "What should we wear?"  I know it's super exciting slash extremely daunting trying to prepare for photos that will serve as cherished memories.  Since many of you probably haven't perused my SERVICES tab, and 'tis the season for Xmas card photos, I figured we'd do a little s + s service announcement this afternoon.  This is one of my absolute favorite services I provide for my clients (and Kristin's  if you book a photo sesh with her--styling is included), and it seems here lately I've been churning out a ton of inspiration boards.  Here's how it goes.....upon your request, I'll email a few questions regarding your style, the vibe you'd like for your photos, most common stores you shop, color scheme---put on my creative cap---spit out a collage with links to shop included and voila--you've got your photo sesh styled!  The pics above are just some of the collages I've done recently for family photos and senior portraits for a brother & sis.   If you would like more info/rates, feel free to shoot me an email at seersuckerandsaddles (at) gmail (dot) com.  
Hope you all are having a wonderful weekend----be back with a fun little post tomorrow--be sure to swing by!

Mother's Day













mom:  dress (Hatley, Blossom of Lexington c/o non-Lexington avail HERE), hat (HM, similar HERE), rings (Lagos, Anna Beck), bracelets (Morton James CuffOmar + Elsie Coordinates BraceletKate Spade), sweater (GAP)
kiddos:  all clothing (Hatley, Blossom of Lex c/o non-Lexington avail HEREHERE), shoes (Converse High TopsToms), all Hair Accessories (Remington c/o)

You two.  You're the reason I get to celebrate this day.  You are the reason I strive to be better.  You give this wild ride of life meaning and purpose.  You make me so happy.  You make me laugh.  You make me cry.  You strengthen me.  You teach me.  You give me courage. You challenge me.  You love me.  I love you.  

Happiest of Mother's Day to all Moms.  But especially to mine.  Mom, it wasn't until I had these two nuggets that I truly "got" all you are, all you did, all you sacrificed for Steph, Jarrod, and me.  Amazing doesn't do you justice, Mom.  If I'm half as good as you were and continue to be, I'll be doing a damn good job.  Love you and wish we were together today.  

Two other shouts out go to Kristin Tatem of Kristin Tatem Photography and Rebecca Kent of Blossom--two amazing, hard working moms whom I also call friends and who made this post possible.  KT, you know I love you & your mad skills, and Rebecca, I adore your spunk and fabulous threads you clothe me and the gals in!  Enjoy your day ladies!  

PS:  Let me briefly talk shop because I know I struggle with finding hair accessories that both the gals and I can agree on.  One it's gotta hold their manes in place (they've got very thick heads of hair thanks to my mother).   And two, it must be comfy and cute--and I use that term loosely since my big gal is such a tomboy, God forbid it's girly or cute.  Thankfully Remington has tons of adorable options that satisfy both me and the little ladies.  Headbands are ridiculously comfortable with no behind the ear complaining, and the barrettes actually hold their hair in place--it's a miracle I tell ya!  Cute, comfy, and functional--thank you,  Remington!  

Enjoy your day gang.  Moms, kick your feet up and relax--you deserve it, you're doing a wonderful job!
