Ladies and Gentlemen... I have discovered yet another new way to express all this fabulous artistic energy... Jewelry!! Thanks to Miss Kitty Vixen and our "Creative Crafting Night", I have fallen in love with organic, natural, and classic jewelry making! I am so excited to make this one of my main hobbies! I made 4 pairs of earrings and a fantastic necklace (which is my favorite) and I couldn't be more proud! Check out Miss Kitty's boutique...maybe you'll see my stuff on there one day, LOL. I think I have finally started to come out of my "funk" and get back into the real world....although without a normal 9-5 job still. This whole unemployment thing has really started to get to me. It seems like if I am qualified to the position, then I'm too qualified. I don't understand this. But I guess the universe works in mysterious ways and it just gives me a great excuse to dive head first into all my fabulous artists abilities (I cannot even tell you the last time I picked up a paintbrush). So here's to new beginnings... Lets make Belladonna a household name!! :)

Good Morning Dolls...
Well, it has come to my attention that our new website might be a little difficult to navigate , so what does this mean? ANOTHER upgrade to the site. No fear though little vixens... it should only take a week and we'll be back up and running again! On a side note.... look for the brand new photos of Miss Liz from Red Lotus Dance to be gracing the new website!! Super excited....

AHHH!!!! Welcome Welcome Welcome back to Belladonna Photography!! To those of you who regularly check this site, I appologize for our extended absence. Belladonna was forced to make some major changes both in personal lives and in professional lives, so our services (and our website) were forced onto the back burner for a spell. I can't tell you how great it is to be back working my craft again! The weather out here in the dreary Pacific Northwest has finally let up and SUMMER is on it's way. I don't know about the rest of you but this winter seemed to go on for FAR too long! I never fancied myself a snow-bird but I was seriously thinking about it after the seemingly endless gray skies and snow we got. But with this new season comes new possibilities and new projects! Our resident Makeup Artist, Kitty has returned from her vacation, and you should expect to see new and wonderful things coming from her on Kitty Vixen Boutique! And after having a really rocky couple of months, I'm back on my feet again and busy busy busy!! I've been working on my Graphic Artistry portfolio and you guys should expect to see a link to that section in the coming weeks. Check back here frequently to seen new blogs, news, and side projects from both of our talented staff!
I know alot of you have been asking "When are we going to see some new work?"....
The Answer: When you guys book some shoots!! So come on and contact us! We're ready to make your dreams into reality!! :)
A special side note:
To Miss Kitty - Thanks for sticking by us when things went a little south. You're a wonderful person, a talented artist, and a great friend... and Belladonna wouldn't be the same without you!
