What We're Doing Today

I've mentioned a couple of times a secret project we've been working on. Today is finally the big day, and I'm so excited. We've been working with Kelle, who is a fabric designer for Robert Kaufman. She has a new fabric line for spring/summer 2010 and has created 3 outfits for Rory to model for their print campaign. Today is the photo shoot with Angela Crutcher who happens to be my favorite photographer as well as the one who took Camden and Rory's Celebrating Adoption photos (if you haven't seen these, you should definitely click). It has been so fun to go through the process and see pieces of fabric become clothing. I love seeing creative people in action (since I am mostly definitely not one). We've had 3 fittings, and Rory has loved it. Both Kelle and Christine (the seamstress) are very sweet, and I've had a blast watching them mix and match fabrics. Rory is quite excited because Kelle has requested that she have her fingernails and toenails painted (which we don't do too often because of the time and effort it takes to let 10 fingers and 10 toes dry on an active 3 year old). I am mostly excited that we'll receive a DVD of the photos from the shoot as "payment" for Rory's modeling gig. I will be linking you up as soon as they're available. :)
