Is this a sign that I've gone over the scrapbooking edge?
I'm packing for a trip and I thought,
"no, I can't take that green sweater because I want to do a red/blue/black scrapbook for this trip and it won't work."
then I thought,
"oh, maybe I'll make some photos black&white...but then, what if I want a particular photo in color and I'm wearing the green sweater?"
then,
"hmm, well I really like that green sweater, I could just photoshop it, in all the photos, to black when I get home"
and with that final, crazy thought, I wondered, "Has anyone else ever packed for a trip with their scrapbook color palette in mind?"
I totally bring certain clothing items (especially scarves) so that I show up well in photos. I've even written about it here
THANK YOU!!!!! I just read that blog article -- it's full of super helpful tips. In addition to the wardrobe and accessory advice (my ratty, old umbrella has been photographed many times too, but I never thought of getting a newer, cleaner one.) I love the photography advice you offer. I didn't realize it, but I always take that boring 'middle spacing' shot. Both the close-up and the long shot are so much better! Tons of great advice, thanks again.
