photo sa(fa)ri

Donna was planning to take new pictures of Jane and Arvind for the website today, but her camera was acting up so I went in to show her how to use mine, and a few minutes later, everyone in the house was in the great room helping out.

We had a great time, and a couple of the photos (out of several hundred) will be perfect for the website. One of the guests showed a real talent for drawing Jane & Arvind out and relaxing them in front of the camera.

To change up the background a little, I asked Jane if she had any fabric to hang up behind them…as soon as the words came out of my mouth, I knew it was a stupid question. We raided the fabric closet, which also happens to be the Indian clothing closet, and before we knew it, we were distracted from the background issue, and we were all decked out in embroidered finery.

After a few unsuccessful attempts, I figured out the shutter timer on my camera and this is the result.
