The photoshoot Saturday went pretty good! We managed to get through all 8, but I almost stopped after 6. I was exhausted. But after a little nap and dinner, I was able to pull together and finish the last 2. I've got 4 of them up so far: Imperial Officer: Played around with a couple of different hairstyles for this but my fav ended up being the braid. Arwen!! Ahhh! OMG I love my ...

Ozma, Hermione and other Progress Pics!

The dress is finished now (mostly, gotta ...
