Found Historic Harmar Village Marietta Ohio {Ohio West Virginia Family Portrait Photographer}

Roberts Family Photography "Found" our new favorite shop. We had a few minutes to kill while preparting for a portrait session in Historic Harmar Village last Friday and we happened into a great little antique shop called Found.  We "found" it to be charming and full of great little treasures. We walked out of there with a new prop and some new wall decor vowing we would be back!

Found is located at 113 Maple Street in Historic Harmar Village on the West Side of Marietta in the block next to the foot bridge. It is full of interesting ephemera, antique toys and furniture.

I found myself there again this morning, waiting for my early morning session to arrive - and snapped a couple shots of some of the exterior decor. The decor outside ranges from primitive to quirky with at least four full sizes bikes hanging from the trees! I love this place and hope to meet the owner, Chuck, on one of my future visits to the shop!

I hope you enjoy and I hope you pay a visit to Found, I think you to will find it to be full of fun and charm!

New American Gothic

When I was young, maybe 9 or 10 my parents took me to see a Grant Wood exhibit in Minneapolis. Grant Wood is the artist that gave us American Gothic. I have always found it an interesting painting and enjoyed work that was inspired by this famous painting be it a spoof or one of my favorite murals in the Short North, Columbus.

I had the chance to create my own American Gothic inspired image when one of my fave maternity customers and stopped in for her second set of maternity images.

I keep seeing this very large and on canvas, don't be surprised if you stop in the studio one day and you see a huge Grant Wood inspired image on the wall. Thanks so much Randi and Brian! I've included a couple other images too!
