Hello, October!

October 8, 2018 Claudia Retter
Certosa, Venice

Certosa, Venice

I love October in Columbus.  No more air conditioning or mosquitoes!  (Although as I type this it’s gotten crazy-hot again! But regardless…) The sun seems to shift its position in the sky overnight, sending bright late-afternoon rays right into my studio again, and I can open all the windows and doors to the breeze. Sweaters and scarves make their way out of the closet but it's still perfect picnic weather. Ahhh...

Last month brought a spur-of-the-moment trip to Venice for John's and my anniversary (I do believe it has become my favorite city! — and yes, photographs forthcoming :-) and I started two new website commissions I'm very excited about: one for a furniture maker, the other for The Sewing Hive, a new sewing school opening in Columbus. Rehearsals also began for the Magpie Consort's December concert series (they're the chamber choir I sing with.) While I am NOT ready for Christmas shopping displays and 24/7 holiday radio, I love working on the pieces we'll be singing for the concert because I always wind up in a festive mood after rehearsal. We even landed a guest appearance at one of Ballet Met's Nutcracker performances at the Ohio Theater—it doesn't get any more Christmas-y than that :-)

But anyway, back to autumn. I hope you are enjoying the change of season!
Cheers for now.

Portrait Sessions


This is one of my favorite photographs from my shoot with Abby a couple weeks ago... something about the light and the red, white, and blue (and those Hunter boots!)

I still have some availability for portrait sessions this month, so whether it's a quick mini-session for your holiday card, or something longer to add to your wall of family portraits, let me know if you'd like to set something up.
