Oh, what fun!  Our Holiday Collection photo shoot took place on one of the hottest days of summer, but our celebration was nonetheless very merry and so holiday happy thanks to the wonderful company, a bit of bubbly, and a magical transformation by mama Deb (yes, the Deb of Deb Collection gorgeousness) with tinsel and trimmings.

The season-stylish spot?  Nana (of June Collection fame!) generously offered her digs as the locale, all the more meaningful because it’s where my family spends Christmas together each year.  A few gifts, a fully-trimmed tree, the crystal, some old-school Santas, and antique china, and it seemed like December in no time.  

Gathering friends and family together for an evening was by far the best part of the shoot…these women (and those who were there in spirit) are our friends, family, role models, muses, confidantes, partners in crime, and shoulders to lean on…and their beauty and warmth radiates much brighter than the jewelry they so marvelously modeled.
