Gardner Village treats /  by Jessica Peterson

The other evening I went with some friends to the cutest boutique hotspot around.  I found these two treasures at the doll shop.  I couldn't resist purchasing them, the paper doll below is named Jimmy (Salime, I got this for you so next time I see you it is yours), the Alice in Wonderland paper dolls were to die for so I had to be mine. 


The Booth at the Bridal Fair /  by Jessica Peterson


Last Saturday I had a booth at a local Bridal Fair.  

For some I thought it would be a good idea to make personalized handouts for people to remember me by.  I made glass magnets with my images inside.  They were the coolest but it took me a long time to do them (I still have some if you want one).



They are so cute and tiny.

Here is the booth.  It was a little kitschy but oh well, it was me so I'm proud. 
I made that sweet chalkboard in the back too. 


These are the magnets in little packages

some of the cards. 

Hire me.
Thanks.

I flew to Los Angeles this morning, I am photographing a wedding in San Diego this weekend. Kinda awesome.

These two are the best. I am so grateful to be able to see them twice in one month.






It's been too long. /  by Jessica Peterson

I have taken a break from the Internet for a while, I guess I burnt myself out.  But I am back! 

I have been in Utah for the past week and it's been a really good week.  I have left my camera in its bag this entire week but now I think it's time to wake it up. 

I am happy right now.

Reasons for this happiness:
-It is Autumn, the ground is still wet from this mornings rain. 
-my phone keeps sending me texts from someone I like hearing from
-I have resurrected my favorite candle (not sure the scent but I got it from Urban) Yum!
-I have been sleeping in my own bed
-I have had Camera Obscura playing constantly in the background of my life

Yep... That's it.

Nate gave me the idea to draw everyone without looking the the paper or lifting the pen. 
So I did it.

Can you match the drawings with the faces from the image above?

Day Not Sure /  by Jessica Peterson

It has been 3 days since my real post... I am going to try to catch up but it might be a little much.  Let's try it  out.

So there has been a lot of window shopping.  Kate's Paperie, always a great time.  Here are some paper masks Claire and I took for a spin.


Yesterday afternoon we had a girls outing.  Brunch at Alice's Teacup , it was so cute and so good, then we did some window shopping and visited the Farmer's Market at Union Square.






(Naomi, the tomatoes remind me of your tic tacs in this photo)

That evening Bingo Night! 

No one won. 


This morning Claire, Hanna and I did the Chelsea Galleries, hours of walking and we only got to a small handful of spaces.  Here are some of m favorite bits of today:


Milk Studios, There was a beautiful show of Sam Haskins work, there were my favorite photos

Maya Lin instillation pieces based of the earths surfaces.  

Ooops, don't know who this belongs too but I like it. 

Our little crew for today 

Anyone recognize this guy?  I will give a candy bar to the first person who knows
And there he is again.

Brooklyn Bridge.  
DUMBO


Click to enlarge this one, I made a little 360 landscape. 

Pizza at my favorite place and ice-cream at the pier... Life doesn't get any better.
  Sometimes I feel like I should be a little more grown-up but then I do things like this...
like Give Kalvin lightning arms
um... maybe I will regret posting this in the morning but oh well, sorry.
And give Hanna wings.

Well, I am still loving the way things have been turning out.
