I'll be darned!

Pep's a Cockatiel!!!

-ol' 2long

Her neck must get tired from pecking on the keyboard so much. 8000+ posts! Her little beak must be worn to a nub! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

But, the lady next to the bird - looks real nice - respectable, but not too respectable to have some fun.

Pep, did you go to Roger James portraits yourself or did they hunt you down because you are so famous???

I sent them an e-mail to see how much it costs, hubby is a huge fan of the 30's & 40's, everything about that era. It might make for a good birthday gift. That is, if I can afford them! LOL!!!!

Chackler, Pep's outta pocket for a while, but she won the sitting and a portrait! Or maybe Mr. Pep won it.

Yep, it's expensive.

$500.00 for two 8.5 x 11.0 pictures. Sitting takes about an hour to an hour and a half, you get your pictures in a week to two weeks. Appointments can be made a week in advance.

Does that include touch-ups? LOL!!! Might consider it if they can make me look younger, taller, and skinnier. Oh yea, and less gray. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

I just got back from Disneyland. And I am tired.... not to mention broke ... but we had a wonderful time.

Hey.... this is NOT what I look like every day.... I have freckles... and laugh lines .... and I am 55 years old ! .... this photographer is a magician!

He does not shoot digital, but REAL film. And, he does his retouching right onto the negative with a pencil ... not with computer photo shop... This is what gives his work such an authentic 1940's look.

He applied most of my makeup himself, because I arrived at his studio right after work, and I do not wear much makeup to work. This is NOT my hat and not my jewelry in the photo.

It's fun to pretend, isn't it? Just like a make-believe Bette Davis.

If any of you have the opportunity to have a photo done with Roger .... he's amazing.

I just clicked onto that photo Pep, and oh my gosh...simply breathtaking!

You've got the eyes...well all the features for the look so I'm sure it wasn't all "magic"!
