Keeping Up with the Kardashians?!!

Try keeping up with TATUM!! ....

A good friend and favorite model of mine, Alicia ( holla! ), called me this morning to inform me that she saw one of those Kardashian girls, Kim, Kourtney something with a K, I don't know, was on the cover of LA Confidential wearing MY suit!

Not only a purchase for my own personal collection of fabulously fashionable items but the suit that I used for a beach swimwear shoot with Alicia MONTHS ago. We are very fashion forward over at Tatum Kathleen Photography.

Sadly, I will tuck my suit away and not be seen amongst the masses that will inevitably purchase and be wearing SAID suit. On the up side of things, I am reaffirmed that I have great style, and am further confused as to whether I would rather be a photographer or a stylist. Thanks to Bravo TV's Double Exposure & Rachel Zoe Project, I will continue to be torn between the two.

Maybe I would be a little less bitter if LA Confidential had hired me to take the photos! haha clearly I am just as capable. & I enjoy the amo case and scattered bullets in my pics better anyway :)

A Big Day

The official launch of ( drum roll please... ) Tatum Kathleen Photography, was a success and very liberating! I feel free from the shackles tying me to my computer, endless internet templates, and html coding (what does that even mean!). Being technologically challenged does not stop me, but sure does make this much more difficult. The web design class I enrolled in, I attended for about a day, give or take a few hours, and I now use the text book to support the one wobbly side of my piano. Alas! I persevered. Thankfully I have a wonderful best friend who bails me out of almost every computer disaster I've ever gotten myself into. (Thanks Whit. also, I love you.)

In conjunction with the launch of the website I was lucky enough to have the opportunity to assist an amazing wedding photography team Love&Art Photography. Paul & Adriana are used to working with me as their subject for various projects ( pictured below ),

but it was just as wonderful working with them behind the camera. It was an amazing venue, Seven Degrees , in the always beautiful Laguna Beach. I'm looking forward to our next wedding adventure and since I have way to many photos to post on my actual website, I figured it couldn't hurt to make one of these "blog" things for all those wonderful "behind the scenes" photos I adore.

look out world... Here I come!
