A Mom Keeps Her Elementary School Science Fair Dreams Alive

Q:  What do you get when you mix flour, a little bit of water, newspaper strips, paint, and a Mom's perfect opportunity to live out all of her elementary school science fair dreams through her one year old son?

A:  This.

Kari Mackey is out of control.

UPDATE: Carrie Bradshaw Sex and the City Manolo Blahnik Shoes feat. in My True Vision Photo Spread

How's that for sensationalism a headline?  Ha!

Thanks to the keen eye...and overindulgence in popular culture of a beloved My True Vision Photography fan (Thanks Ling!), it was brought to our attention that the Blue Satin Manolo Blahnik wedding shoes of Gingi Nixon photographed by Kari in our (Jamaica Destination Beach) wedding prep spread were  borrowed directly from the set of the Sex and the City Movie originally featured in the Sex and the City movie.

After some serious google investigative reporting we found this information:

It was when Carrie Bradshaw in an episode of Sex and the City begged a mugger to take anything but her Manolo Blahniks that the shoe designer, already famous among haute couture circles, also became famous to mainstream shoppers. By the way, the mugger knew a good deal when he saw one and left taking only the shoes.

These gorgeous royal blue pumps played an important role in the Sex and the City movie… from helping Carrie Bradshaw feel at home in her new closet to bringing people together, the pumps were almost the 5th main character in the long awaited movie.

Covered in regal royal blue satin, it features a stunning crystal detail on the vamp which is encased in silver tone hardware. And they’re not just any pair of Manolo’s, they were designed especially for the movie.

The Destination Beach Wedding of Chris and Gingi in Negril Jamaica

You all may recall Chris and Gingi from their super dope: Hearts, Chocolate, Spraypaint, Love Engagement photo shoot back in March.  

After their engagement shoot, Kari and I were geeked to be asked to travel with the couple to Jamaica to capture their "I Do's" in a lovely, private beach ceremony in Negril.

We are so happy for Chris and Gingi and are glad to share a few highlights from their big day.

Evolution Project Atlanta Releases New Website - Images by My True Vision Photography

The Evolution Project releases its new website!


You may recall from a previous post the BIG announcement about My True Vision Photography partnering with AID Atlanta, the Evolution Center, and Graphic Designer Chris Barker for one of two new media campaigns with AID Atlanta.  (It was an image from the photo shoot for the first of those campaigns that ended up being the August 2011 Cover of GA Voice).


Since then the Evolution Project has released a mobile website, a facebook page, a blog....and now its new website.


It's been such an honor to be a part of this important work.  Huge thanks to Chase Andrews, Chris Barker, Kevin Hatcher, and everyone at the Evolution Center for the opportunity.
