Lighten Up Your Skincare Routine with TANDA

Lighten up your skincare routine (no pun intended!) with TANDA.
TANDA is a professional light therapy device that has been clinically PROVEN to work on your skin using LED technology.

The TANDA uses LED lights that penetrate deep into the layers of the skin to work with your skin cells from the inside out.

Easy to use and cleared by the FDA, the TANDA is effective in correcting and preventing acne breakouts, treating sagging, wrinkled or prematurely aging skin conditions.

With continuous use an average of 90% of users found that their acne breakouts cleared up faster and felt that outbreaks were fewer. 92% of users found that their skin looked and felt rejuvenated. 83% of users found that their skin appeared younger and healthier. (Ref: TANDA pro.)

The TANDA is as easy to use as 1-2-3…

On a CLEAN and DRY face:
Press the orange button and place corresponding light head in contact with the skin.
Move the TANDA around the face (TANDA will beep when it’s time to move on to a new spot, pause up to 3 minutes on areas of special concern.)
Use up to 12 minutes, and that’s it!

Allow 24 hours between treatment times. Once desired results are achieved, use TANDA 2-3 times per week to maintain.

The TANDA may be used to maintain results from a dermatologist, or can easily be used to start your own LED therapy sessions in the privacy of your own home!

Japanese Beetle {Faces in Strange Places}

This week's them is Faces in Strange Places. It's that time of year and this creepy things are all over. In fact I had one in my hair last week. Freaked out as I was combing my fingers through my hair and touched it. And of course I screamed as I had no idea what was in my hair. Let me introduce you to a Japanese Beetle.

Mr. & Mrs. King {Patriotic}

Today I had the pleasure of shooting my first wedding. Although it was small it was a bit stressful during the ceremony. At least for me. I'm not sure I'll do weddings in the future but it was good practice. I wish we had more time for detail shots and reception photos. I had Eliana's Vacation Bible School program this evening therefore could not photograph the reception. This young couple was lovely and great to work with. Thank you for letting me share your special day with you. Congratulations Tiffany and Dominic!!! So, I proudly bring you Mr. & Mrs. King...

Home {Patriotic}

Eliana's sitter Sarah decorates for every holiday. And as usual there is one hanging on the front door. Sarah made this as well. She's pretty crafty and Eliana likes to do them when she is there too. Sarah definitely decorates for the Fourth of July as her husband served in the military. Can't remember right now if it was the Air Force or the Marines.

ISO 640 - And YES I actually used something other then ISO 100. Can you believe it?

Lechner, Flag, Pinata {Patriotic}

This week's theme is Patriotic. These are photos from Monday, Tuesday and today. It's been 11 days since I've posted photos here on the blog. Things have been busy and now Eliana is back home from visiting Oma and Opa {my mom and dad}.

James R L. Lechner served in the military and was young when he died. Being in the military is the most Patriotic thing someone can do at least in my book. Although I grew up as an army brat and this is how I feel.
