About Me

Photoshop Actions PSE Elements 9 10 Help Troubleshooting

I really dread writing bios and “about me” pages. So, I’ll just share a little useless information about me …

Totally random things I love:

• My precious daughters … baby Eliza June Clementine is a year old and my wild just turned six year old, Adeline. They are my number one muses whose pretty faces grace all my sites. And my husband who is truly my best friend, partner and soul mate as well as an amazing daddy to our girls (I know it’s so clichéd, but my little family are truly my heart and soul, my number one).
• Photography and anything else that lets me express my creativity
• Vegetarian foods and cruelty free lifestyle
• Indie music and singer/songwriters (I *heart* Elliot Smith)
My Saddlebred Pinto horse (even though I can no longer ride much with my illness, my little girl now rides and shows)
• Being goofy with my little clan … we are the jumping on the bed together every night, a picnic under the stars every night in summer, and roll to the library in our jammies when it’s stormy kind of family.
• Anything Apple
• The colors turquoise and sunshine yellow
• Learning new things with my little girls every day in our adventures homeschooling
• Collecting vintage clothing, props and furniture
• Photoshop (I *live* in Photoshop and have been working with it since high school, first as a graphic designer for 12 years and then as a photographer)
• Anthropologie and Free People, but only the sale racks … thrift shops and Amazon.com because I hare shopping in crowds
• Organic gardening and building fairy houses with my girls
• Teaching my daughters to love our earth
• Helping other photographers succeed at doing what they love
• Nursing my babies and helping other mamas feel supported in breastfeeding their children
• Babywearing (I have an addiction to baby carriers)
• And again, wrapping up with the most important thing to know about me … I cherish being a mommy – the most awesome and most fulfilling job in the whole wide world.

I do have a personal blog … just keep in mind it’s a rambling dumping ground for all random things related to the crazy Manning household and totally not business related. :)


Have a question for me? Formspring me!
You can ask me anything and I’ll answer just as soon as I can. Just be sure to make it short and sweet or Formspring will simply not deliver the question for some reason. :)
