Time for an Update!

Yes, we've been super busy at BellaRhys! We have completely moved from the ebay group forums to a fantastic location in the forumotion forums. Here is the link to our new forum that is in part viewable by the general public.
designbellarhys.com
2009 will be here shortly AND with the New Year coming our way, we decided to drop our "exclusive" title and go NON-exclusive. We're very much LOVING that switch. We'll still be launching monthly and invite you to join us for our up and coming 2009 Launch....Dugout's and Daisy's! I'll keep you posted...watch for it on the 20th of January.
With all of our new changes, we've added some super FAB designers to our already fab group.

Baby Your In Pictures! Model Mom Interview

Baby Your In Pictures!

We as mommies are so very, very proud of our children. We love taking pictures, and showing all of those special moments. Today we are going to meet Rhonda, a model mom to Ginnabeth. Rhonda has been in the boutique community for years as a designer and now a model mom. Today she is going to share on what being a model mom means to her.

Rhonda how did you get started?
I started out using Ginnabeth as my model. It took me a bit of time to get backgrounds, lights and a nice camera. I did a lot of research on different lighting set ups and natural lighting. Through trial and error my pictures became better and better. The one thing I was lucky to have already was a willing model.

Are there better times to take pictures then others?
I like to take outdoor shots around 9 am or 7 - 8 pm. For studio shots anytime your child is ready. With a younger child it is important that they are not hungry or sleepy.

Do you need special equipment?
You can get good pictures with a variety of equipment. A good lighting kit is important for studio or high key shots. Understanding the settings on your camera is also important. However some of the most beautiful shots I have taken have been in natural lighting with my camera on auto.
The most important "equipment" for modeling is a willing model. The very best equipment can not capture a beautiful happy picture of an unhappy child.

What do you do to prepare for a shoot?
When we receive a set to model, I decide what setting would best show case this set, unless the designer has specified a particular setting.
With outdoor settings you need to scan the area for unsightly things, such as trash cans, debris, or anything else that might be distracting.

I make sure that the set is pressed and wrinkle free, and pick out matching bows and shoes if they are not included with the set.
I tell Ginnabeth that another lady has chosen her to wear one of their beautiful creations. We talk about who she is modeling for, what poses she might like to do and where we will be doing the shoot.
We then decide how to do her hair fun and funky or sweet and simple depending on the style of the set.

It is very important to have a clean and neat looking model.
If we will be traveling to the shoot, I do not dress her till we get there and we change before we leave.

Ginnabeth loves to come home and see her pictures on the computer so that is how we finish up her part of the shoot.
I then go through the pictures pick which ones show all sides of the set and any detail work. I crop and edit where needed and if desired add frames and text.

What's in a Room? Preparing for Baby!

Preparing the perfect room for baby, so many ideas, where do I start. I found a perfect match to all of your room decor needs. Baby*milan has everything from room decor to adorable nursery accesories. Definately a must see!



What is in a name

I found this great website that shares the meaning of a name. I could not believe that there were 27,000 names, and Baby Names World gives great tips on assisting you in choosing the perfect baby name or maybe you are curious in the meaning of your name.

Baby Names World not only has information on choosing the perfect name. They have articles on pregnancy with a pregnancy calculator, baby gear, chat board, and so much more.

Great site to visit for the mommy to be!

Meet The BellaRhys

We are designers, moms, friends with a passion for design in the boutique community. Go grab yourself a cup of coffee and enjoy! We will be sharing tips, boutique news, and a wide variety of articles.

Here are a few of our designers!
