March 18, 2009Rad Stuff for Photographers
These super rad actions will totally spicefy your photographs! They are a must for photoshop users!!!
They have the neatest stuff, from marketing templates, brushes and overlays, and splash pages! Very cool!
The owner of My Lil Creations, Tina Parker, is amazing! She comes up with the neatest digital papers, frames, elements, etc., which I like to place over some of my photographs as textures. I also make cards and such, and have just taken up digital scrapbooking! If you are into this kind of stuff, this is the place to go! :) Any frames or papers used on my site — ALL her products!
This is a must have for ALL camera users!! After seeing Zak Schwank using his, I had to get one!! I won’t shoot with any other strap…EVER!
Seriously? This is the BEST place to get your prints! They are professional quality and just totally amazing! Not to mention, they have the BEST prices around! Check them out! Once you print from there, you won’t go anywhere else!
These guys offer top quality in canvases! The first … and last … place I will ever get my canvas! Plus, they send a groovy little duck in each shipment — you can’t go wrong there!
They have some very groovy stuff going on – photo tips, DIY, rad stuff, and more! You have to get their photo rope — a very modern way for displaying your photographs at home! Plus, they send a surprise with every shipment!
These versatile little buggers hail from London, England, and really pack a punch! They are micro business cards, about the size of a stick of gum, that come in packs of 100. Now, unlike the typical card, you can have up to 100 different images — 1 per card! Now, how rad is that? Oh, and I found out recently that they stand up to babies rather well. Now, of course all of that is great…but it gets better — THEY ARE GREEN (meaning eco-friendly). The paper used is sourced sustainable forests, the packaging is made from recycled plastic (totally reusable), and all cards are printed with a protective coating of sorts. See? Totally RAD!

This is where I got my blog theme, which totally rocks btw! They have all sorts of tips, tricks, resources, etc. for photographers!!! Looove the site! Love their stuff!
Awesome Photographers
Totally rad chick out of San Diego, California. Have yet to meet her, but have tweeted before. lol Her work is phenomenal — check her out!
Zak is the raddest photo dude I know! We met up with him in Old Town Temecula in Nov. ‘08 for some lifestyle shots of my daughters and I together — something I HAD very few of! He’s pretty much amazing! Oh, and on the “About Photographer” page — those are his shots! :) See, I told you he was cool!
Made up of David, Kim, April, Rain, and Kona (their dog). :) This is an amazing family! Their photographs WOW me on a regular basis. Their blog is the place to be on any given day of the week! I found them through Zak…and someday, hope to have a session with them! They are on my list of people to meet and shoot with…someday. :)
Another photographer I haven’t met, but she’s groovy! She is based out of N.C., and as she puts it, she’s funky, fun, and unique.

These girls rock — totally. I love their work…and they seem really cool. They are an up and coming team our of Georgia…bound for greatness!
This girl is going places!!! Met her? Nope. Want to? Yes! She is so darn cool! I don’t remember how it was I came across her work, but the moment I saw it…I was in LOVE. She’s sooo young…and she’s this amazing (not quite a good enough word) phantastical (better word) photographer! Oh, to shoot with her would be bliss! So what’s the problem — she’s in CANADA! Hmm…someday!
Stay tuned…more to come!
