Anne of Green Gables:








My sister Ruth came home from Boston to visit for a few days this week. My sister’s a photographer, so of course we had to do some photo shoots together. She also has a blog www.ruthboller.wordpress.com you should check it out! She came up with a photo shoot idea to dress up like Anne of Green Gables. I’m Anne (naturally) and she’s Diana. I’m wearing the vintage lace dress I made and she’s wearing a dress I got at Goodwill for 50c. (Goodwill outlet stores…Pro-you get insanely cheap clothes. Con- the old ladies push there.) David (my little brother) took all of the photos of us together, and Ruth took the ones of just me. It was fun…but I could have gone without the cars staring as they passed by…I’m starting to get nightmares. Oh well, I guess people will always stare…shivers.

  1. Wow, this is amazing. I love both dresses! You are both very beautiful and Esther, you have this really intriguing face (especially in the 5th photo down)! It's hard to explain, but it's so expresive and lovely, and kind of haunting in the same way. I'm making no sense now and I probably sound a bit weird, haha!

    I love checking out your blog, it always makes me smile!

  7. I just noticed that you have red eyebrows. Jealous! I am a redhead with blonde eyebrows. It's a curse.

    Gorgeous photos!!
