ETSY

Recently while I was surfing the internet I came across an online store called ETSY. It has tons of homemade items for sale. You can shop by category like normal online stores, or if you want you can shop by color. There's an easy to use color tool to select a color you'd like to look for, and it shows you all of the matching results!

There are so many nifty handmade things on this site, but my favorite would have to be the bags and purses.


Thoes are just a few that caught my eye last time I was there. They have so many cool items to look at it's hard to pick just one!

Anyway, hope your winter is going well. This weather just keeps changing! This past weekend was all sunshine and relatively warm, but today it's back to snow and cold. Guess that's what Michigan weather is all about... unpredictability and change!

Across The Universe

Over the weekend I was hanging out with some friends and we rented the movie Across the Universe. I don't think this movie was advertised much, but I think it's a fantastic movie. It is a little chick-flick based, but without so much of the cheesey story. It's a musical performed entirely with Beatles songs. I absolutely loved it! I grew up listening to the Beatles because my dad liked them so much, so it was really exciting listening to each song in a new, updated way. Here's a trailer I found on youtube. Just click once on the movie to activate the control and then click play. ^_^

"Spring Cleaning"

It's been so long since I've posted, I know. I've been super busy, but that's not much of an excuse. So I'm back! I'll be posting every week - at least... sometimes more... with updates, specials, general thoughts, some images, and most importantly - with some free stuff! so stay tuned for it all.

This past weekend all of us here at Boyce took a trip to Yipsilanti for Professional Photographers of Michigan's annual convention. It was a lot of fun seeing all the new faces and catching up with our photographer friends. I can't believe all the new members this year! My mom, Denise, was President Elect this past year, so she planed this convention with the help of the PPM board members. It was a lovely location, the Marriott of Yipsilanti, and we had a ton of great speakers and print judges. Convention ended with a semi-formal banquet where all of the print trophies were awarded to photographers with exceptional prints entered in competition, and our good friend, Loretta gave her presidential speech and then handed the presidency on to my mom. Everyone who reaches the board position of President of PPM has worked so hard for so many years. I'm very glad that Loretta and my mom have reached the level they have in PPM and get to see all of their hard work pay off! Congrats to Loretta on becoming a PPM Past President, and to my mom, Denise, on her new position as President of PPM!


Seeing all of the speakers at convention gave me so much inspiration and motivation to update some things here at our own studio that we all came back and started hard at work. We're working on reorganizing several rooms here and we're updating most of our displays. Keep a look out for some new promotions and as always, a lot of excitement for what we love - PHOTOGRAPHY!
