Greetings from Michigan! I am here visiting my uncle, aunt and cousin. Here are some photos I took while ambling around his house yesterday. This weekend we are heading up to Mackinaw Island so I will post some photos from there later!

Nan and Librado Wedding 10.11.08

Here is a set of wedding invitations that I just got finished assembling. I had so much fun with this wedding, fall weddings are my favorite (mine was in November). Thank you Nan for the experience!

Here is some photography that I took and played around with in photoshop. The beautiful angel belongs to good friends of mine, Damian and Gina.

Here is a little snip it of some of the work that I have done recently. I am currently finishing up a wedding invitation that I am really excited about and I will post images of it once completed. The invitation's shown here are for a 100th birthday, a couple's bridal shower, a 1st birthday (I took the image as well) and a wedding reception.

I just took some photos this weekend of work that I have done in the past couple of months and will post those soon.

Welcome!

Welcome to my blog! This is my first blogging of any type so please be kind! I wanted a way to show everyone what I like to do and things that I find really cool and I thought a blog would be the best way to share!

I am a Graphic Designer from the St. Louis, Missouri area. I have been creating for 7 years professionally and I love it! In the past 2 years I have started to venture out into freelancing and it has been such a blessing. I can come home from work and create whatever I want without any 'corporate feel' holding me back and it is a freedom that I have found I would not trade for anything! I have always had a passion for photography and have recently started to move forward with that passion so you may find photography as well as graphic design work in my posts.

You can check out my etsy site at http://www.charismadesign.etsy.com You will find some of my work (wedding/birthday invitations) there. My goal is to try to sell some photographs on etsy in the future once I begin creating some work I feel others will enjoy besides just my mother :)

Thank you for looking me up! Please feel free to comment or add me to your RSS feed, I will try to stay on top of this as much as I can and I look forward to hearing from anyone who is reading this.
