Fun Find Friday – Richard Tomas Photography

Written by Patti on October 22nd, 2010

Good Morning, Darlings!

This morning I was going to talk about quick and easy Halloween costumes, but I have got to share these shots taken of me last night by my friend and out-of-this-world photographer, Richard Tomas.

I was excited to get the photos taken, but didn’t have lofty aspirations as to how I would look. I thought I would look sweet, but never expected that cooking could look so glamorous. Richard, with his incredible knack for reading people, pulled an entire wardrobe for me, complete with jewelry. I entered his studio in Atlanta and the magic began. It was just like you would imagine a fabulous fashion shoot would be. Makeup, a swanky hairdo, lots of loud, fun, music (I swear, when my favorite photos were being shot, Whitney Houston’s Greatest Love of All, was playing – let me tell you how much that song will boost one’s confidence!), and a caring, patient, funny, fabulous photographer.

You know I cannot make you wait any longer to see the results – and mind you, this was taken, just last night!

Ta-Da!!

I was floored, flabbergasted, head-twirlingly happy with the results.

And you know what? You can also look like the fantasy version of yourself if you call Richard and set up a session. I bet, if you are sweet and are willing to fly him to you, he would even travel to make you look amazing.

I am serious, I cannot imagine a cooler Christmas gift. Richard, you are my Santa!!

Have the most amazing weekend my darlings!!

xoxo, Patti
