After many attempts at setting up the still life studio and not quite getting the results I've been looking for, today was a good day. I discovered scraps of plexi glass, empty paint cans and basically treasures in the basement to achieve this fantastico glossy look. (stay away cats, this is no playhouse!) Natural north window light. And it's SOOC. No editing. I LOVE it. And I love the image of Miss Queen Buzzy Bee's Butt.

 I've been selling vintage collectables on ebay since 2007 and it suddenly occurred to me that their store front page sucks. Really no way to customize it. It's very outdated and plain. I like simple and uncomplicated but I'm not plain Jane. (no offense to Jane). It's 2016 and I'm interested in creating unique store fronts for my website (NEW this year!), blog (NEW this year!), zazzle and finally ETSY. I will continue to sell select items on ebay simply because I know it and I've built up an amazing feedback score. But Etsy will allow me to create a truly unique store front look. My blog posts will display items for sale and some NOT for sale, some things I just have a connection with and I will not let go of. Depends on the feeling and of course the cuteness factor. My home is chock full of unique artisan pieces, flea market finds, travel souvenirs and thrift store GOODIES! Everything in it is mismatched and tells a story. (no I swear, I am not a hoarder) It's what I love and will love to share here through my photography.

New Name. Same Look. More Services!

Puppycat Photography announces new name change to.....

Kim Widmark. (soon to be kimwidmark.com-work in progress!)
I was looking to freshening up and simplifying a name that made sense! I wanted to keep the services I offered under one roof with one clear name: mine! The (cute and adorable) name 'Puppycat Photography' was too narrow and Kim Widmark is now a broader name concept. I will still be offering very limited on location photography services to clients, but my focus has been moving toward an online store selling products created by me made available to everyone. This includes my art and photography plus a seasonal collection of art that I have been in the process of restoring. One thing is for sure, the following 'about me' bullets still ring true and will never change:

• Collector of vintage salt and pepper shakers and a few lunch boxes.
• Hard core dog walker to a charming 5 pound blonde Pomeranian.
• Addicted to black coffee and cannot function without it.
• Studied art and fashion in London, England.
• Best mom EVER to a beautiful and talented daughter.
• Will rock out to The Misfits when editing images.
• Favorite holiday is hands down HALLOWEEN!
• Climbed highest mountain in Norway and survived.
• Lover of Chicago deep dish cheese pizza from Lou Malnati's.
• Pets are my motivation, inspiration and make me smile every day!

I am blessed to have found my eureka moment in life! Thank you for taking a look at my work! I really appreciate it!

 

Yes, this is me in my elf costume. A terrific illustration (by my late husband) of your humble dog photog. 

HAPPY NEW YEAR! 

I wish you all good fortune and many slobbery dog kisses!
