She needs to get on that!<br /><br />Sarah and Miriam, I'm thinking the same thing-- everything else is going to fall short now.<br /><br />Jill, your photos did turn out adorable! I'll make appointments for the hair & makeup on picture day.<br /><br />Nikki, how awesome to have the photographers in the family! And thank goodness for Photoshop, right? I can't believe you'd need much retouching though.<br /><br />Chris, the hair does stand out, doesn't it? Even without the silver lobster.<br /><br />I agree, Caroline, the beard hat is awesome! Looks comfy and warm too.<br /><br />Thank you, Diana, it is a one-of-a-kind hat!

Also,my husband - who is ALSO a photographer, but more importantly an EXPERT in Photoshop, is going to "fix" the photo. No more wrinkles or gray hair, whiter teeth and eyes... I plan to look NOTHING like my author pic. I'll tell people I had it taken when I was younger, thinner, and carefree... before novel-writing had sucked the goodness out of my life. ;PNikkihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00763145465029499768noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2182828981001582609.post-36525153456902525662011-05-16T09:18:32.262-05:002011-05-16T09:18:32.262-05:00Oooh, I vote for the Snookie look! :D
