I Love how Liesl decorates

Liesl has been slowly putting our home back together after we moved.  

Home Decor art photo consultation charlotte NCShe’s got a great sense of style and its fun watching her put it all together.  The kids were so excited to give her the Geode from one of their trips over Christmas break and she knew right were it would fit.

Liesl just scheduled a time with a busy mom to help her decide which portraits and what type of frames would be best to build their family portrait wall.  So if you get stuck in presenting your photographs, look at some of these ideas - or call Liesl at 585.354.2642 to go over your style and decoration needs.  Liesl is available for appointments all across the Mecklenburg area including Charlotte, Lake Wylie, Lake Norman, and Fort Mill.

I love your style Liesl ~

My First Care Package from Rochester, NY!

A few days ago an unmarked package came in the mail. I had no idea who it was from, but upon opening it I KNEW it was from Rochester, because of all the products from Wegmans ;-)

After sorting through energy bars, granola, gum, pen & paper, water bottles and a myriad of other must-have necessities, I found a note.

Erich Camping, a photographer from Rochester, NY sent this AWESOME care package as a thank you for some referrals I had sent his way!


Now, do I recommend him because he sends me coffee and chocolate? No way, I recommended him way before he ever proffered anything like that. I recommend him because he is a great photographer, and a very good man. And his thoughtful gift only shows me that I was right on with my assessment of him. A very unexpected and delightful way that Erich Camping has made love real.

Visit his wedding photography blog and give him some love!

Thanks again Erich, and I will keep those referrals coming. With or without the Moose Munch payment. Preferably with. :)
