I'm honored to say tonight's website design and it's contents were not created by Silverbox, but by my very talented daughter, Emma. She's pursuing her dreams at the University of Delaware and thought she deserved the limelight this evening. I'm sure she's knee deep in homework as I type, and hopefully finds this post to be a clear reminder of her passion to fulfill her dreams and keep her light burning bright. Dearest Emma,

Always remember, fashion is not something that exists in dresses only. Fashion is in the sky, the street, fashion has to do with ideas, the way we live, what is happening. ~ Coco Chanel (& Mom)

hee haw...it's a hoe down!

Hee Haw! Our neighbors threw a rootin' tootin' birthday party and thought I'd share pics of the festivities. What a fun day we had at this Hoe Down! From yummy chili, cornbread, corn on the cob, fried chicken and kabobs to smores marshmallow sticks, sweet hamburger and fries dessert and homemade mini pies. Did I forget to mention the apple bobbing and cow tails, root beer bottles and hay bail seating?...and so much more! Everyone was well-behaved with a sheriff in town. A huge thank you to Christen and Tony for a wonderful time! Congratulations on a job well done!

Anyone in the Collegeville, Pa area looking for a great cake artist and event stylist for your kids party? Do I have the perfect lady! Contact me and I'll get you in touch with Christen.

We thought we'd answer the top three of our most asked questions about holiday cards and photo sessions. 1. What should we wear to our session?

The only thing we feel strongly about is no prints, large logos, or designs on clothing.  Solids really look best for both black & white or color photos.  Of course, if you have a beautiful dress for your daughter with a holiday plaid pattern, by all means use it! Colors that compliment each other work best for larger families.  It's really all about how you want your photos to look.

Also, if you're wanting a large color print for a room in your house, by all means think about what color your room decor is while deciding on your clothing choice.

2. Can we use our own photos for the holiday cards?

Absolutely! To design with one of your images, we just need the original, high resolution file of the image. You can mail, drop off a CD with images, or email them to orders@silverboxcreative.com. We can also work from non-digital files. Simply provide the photo and we will scan and return the original with the final cards. *Please note: Silverbox will need a copyright release to work with another photographer's image(s).

3. What if it rains?

Did you know that the best photos are taken on cloudy, overcast days? We will have the studio set up for an indoor photo session in the event of a rainy day.  If you have your heart set on outdoor photography, we will make every effort to reschedule your shoot.

Oh, how we love this client. I'm not quite sure you can fit one more ounce of sweetness into someone. She's a long time client of ours. Her fabulous one-of-a-kind jewelry says it all. She's a local business that we're so fond of. Please take a moment to visit her etsy site for vintage elegance, or become a fan of hers on Facebook to keep up to date with her new vintage jewelry masterpieces. We purchase products from her and get some many compliments when accessorizing with these gems! We love you Pam! And oh yes, we designed her logo too :)
