Etsy Photography Shop Open!

If you check in to the blog regularly at all, you may be wondering why it’s been a few weeks since I posted anything. Well, I have been working on a few exciting photography-related projects that have been taking up most of my extra time! Most importantly, I am excited to announce the opening of my Etsy photography shop: KristiPhotos.

Having a place to sell my photography is something I have been wanting to do for years, really. My inventory is small and I will continue to see how I want to grow it, but just taking a step forward and putting some of my work out there is exciting. (And a little scary too!) To start, I am featuring some of my favorite photos available matted or printed on other mediums. I also have some greeting cards, and a custom project option!

If you’d like to check it out you can find me on Etsy at KristiPhotos. If you want to see my full online photography portfolio, head over to KristiStephensonPhotography.com. Any of those prints can be custom-ordered through my Etsy shop as well 🙂

Office Remodel – Photo Staging

Another update I’ve been working on this summer is an office remodel, so I now have a better table/workspace and also a lot more storage!! Thanks IKEA! 🙂 My favorite office additions are TWO of these GERTON wood tabletops with adjustable OLOV legs, and a custom KALLAX cubby system.

In case you are curious or looking for suggestions, I finished the raw wood tabletops with a natural Danish Oil and wipe-on poly. I’m really happy with how they turned out.

The table in front of the window will serve as an excellent staging location for my recipe photos. I can use the natural light from the window, filter it by hanging a sheet, or setup a light if shooting after dark. I can’t wait to put this spot to good use! It will also be an excellent work space for cutting photo mats, etc.

And who doesn’t love storage? Complete with DOORS and DRAWERS and BASKETS. I love the crisp clean look.
