Small World


I must have walked past Miss Lara a thousand times.

Modern Prairie Girl

I’m just sick about missing all the past opportunities to hang with a creative sista.  We both live in the small town of Camas Wa.  SMALL!  We both attend every Barn House Sale……and even talked to the same group of friends.

My friends Krista and Becky- I stood in line with them at the BarnHouse Sale.

She is good friends with my friend Krista………we were even with Krista the same day while Krista received chemo.

My friend Krista during chemo. Lara hung out with her in the AM, I hung out with her in the afternoon.

But I arrived shortly after Lara had to leave.  We even know the same amazing photographer, Fancy Farmgirl..…I just featured her last week.  I had no idea she also knew Tiffany!

Tiffany on the left was one of the offical photographers from The Creative Connection. Fancy Farmgirl.

What a small world.  Then while checking facebook, I see her commenting on my friend Margie’s page because she had just attended the Brave Girls Camp.  SMALL WORLD.

We know SO many of the same people, but have never met.  That has got to change.  I can’t wait to meet her.  So much talent.  Not only is she an amazing photographer, but she dabbles in mixed media. 

I love what she has in her etsy shop. 

Looks like she has an amazing home!!!  I plan to be really really nice to her, then kidnap her to help me with my decorating dilemmas.  That photo below is her dining room table!  Can you stand it?  Those chairs are burlap………..BURLAP!  We all know my love for burlap.

It takes a special person to be a pet photographer.  She’s got some adorable shots on her professional site.  Her human shots are pretty amazing too. She loves a good theme.  Don’t miss the Alice in wonderland photo shoot she did.

I know that I’ll just love Lara.  Can’t wait to meet her.  Now if you don’t mind……..please head over and leave her a comment so she thinks I’m pretty cool too.  :)

    Lara is indeed talented and anyone who sits with a friend during chemo is truly special. I must comment on the room Krista was in, the quilt in the background is stunning. I remember when my mother went through chemo, the room was cold and sterile.

I work for a bistro owner in downtown Camas (I live in washougal) who is acquaintances with Lara. She showed me her website and I FELL IN LOVE with her artwork!!
