Our Book – Amazing Hairstyles : From Easy to Elegant

This is a post I’ve been dying to make for quite a while now.  Ever since we announced our good news about our book  I’ve been so anxious to share something more.  Today I’m thrilled to be able to share the cover with you and the exciting news that it’s available for pre-order on Amazon right now.  Obviously I’ll be even more excited once the actual book comes out, but now that the cover can be shared, it makes this “dream” even more of a reality.

The whole process of writing a book has been such an adventure.  I knew it would be a lot of work — but I never knew how much truly was involved until I was actually doing it.  By the time it is actually out on shelves, this whole project will have been almost a year in the making.  The publisher contacted us in November last year, and it is due out mid-October or November of this year.  I really started working on things in January of this year and between 5 different photo shoots and countless hours at my computer, it was all turned into the publisher on May 5th.  Now it’s in their hands and will be going to the presses any time now.

Just for fun, I thought it would be fun to share a few “behind the scenes” pictures I took with my phone during the process, and some fun facts about the book.  Thanks to my amazing and talented friend & photographer Katie, of LampShade Studio, we did most of the shoots here locally, but we did one round up in her studio in Wyoming.  This was from one of our shoots here locally.Of course I can’t share too much yet … but here’s a few shots I grabbed with my phone! This pretty gal is my niece and we created a gorgeous updo on her.  It’s probably one of my favorites in the whole book!  But again … it’s just a little peek! 🙂

This was the day I was getting ready to submit everything.  All the chapters printed up and checking and double checking that images and things matched up with what I was submitting.
