I hope you’re enjoying a fabulous weekend! I hinted last week at our Simple things Sunday party that I would be welcoming a few special guests to come and share some photography inspiration with us on the blog each week. I’ve invited some of my favourite photographers whom I love and admire and I’m so excited to introduce them to you!
They will be joining us each Sunday for our weekly link up so watch for their photos being shared in the party or via instagram. They’ll be visiting some of your blogs and admiring your beautiful photos throughout the week. The following Saturday morning they will be sharing a little bit about themselves, some fabulous photo tips and highlighting a few of YOUR photos that caught their eye in the weekly linkup!
This is going to be such fun and I can’t wait for you to meet our very first guest – Christy of Addy Lane. I’ve been using Christy’s beautiful actions on my photos for years now and I just love them to bits. The soft vintage feel and the timeless look they give to my photos is simply divine and I can’t wait for you to see the latest set of actions that Christy’s been working on!
I’m going to turn this over to Christy so she can tell you a little bit about herself. She’s got some wonderful editing advice to share and you can find her photo picks from the STS party along with links to her blog, FB page and instagram feed at the bottom of this post!
Hello! My name is Christy and I currently reside in Florida with my supper supportive husband and 4 children. My loves other than my children & photography are early morning light, Hawaiian fusion food and watching Homeland on Sunday nights (completely hooked on that show!).
I have been taking pictures for as long as I can remember. My passion developed as a little girl growing up in Hawaii, looking through my Grandmothers boxes of pictures. I still have and dearly treasure her cameras, and her pictures. But my first true SLR camera was Canon 35mm film camera, and about 5 years ago I went digital.

Wow, what gorgeous photos! Whenever I see beautiful photography, I’m inspired to document my family in that same, amazing way. Thanks for sharing!

I bought Addy Lane Basics awhile back after seeing Rebecca’s photos and I love the simplicity. They were editing tools I already used, but it helped speed up the process for a large editing session. I adore the cereal spoon shot, such everyday simplicity. I have found in some ways I regret starting a business because of losing time for my own images and it is hard to find balance. Looking forward to those new actions!
