A Blog Wishlist

Let's put on our day-dreamy think-y caps today! I'm about to ask you a "what if..." question!

Whether you're a fashion, beauty, foodie, lifestyle blogger etc. what would be YOUR ideal location or set up for a photoshoot?

The reason I'm asking you this question, is because one of my favorite bloggers, Nicole Warne of Gary Pepper blog, recently fulfilled hers and shared it on her blog.In her blog post JE T'AIME, she confides that the Paris shoot you see here was one she wanted to do for a long time. She has a bucket list of things that she would like to do and plans on fulfilling them.

That got me thinking! We all have wish lists of things we want to purchase or do, but what about our BLOGS? It's important to have goals and wish lists for our blogs too! I ask each of my readers to look at their blog, ask what do you visualize for it and write those thoughts down to fulfill.

So what would be my ideal photoshoot? I think if I had to do a photoshoot, my ideal setting would be either a cake, candy or ice cream shop! Are you guys surprised? HaHaHa Oh hell, let's up the ante! Why not an entire Willy Wonka Factory Set filled with ALL OF THE ABOVE! I always say, go for the gusto! HaHaHa

All pictures are the property of Gary Pepper
To view the entire photoshoot, please click HERE.

So here's to DREAMS and IMAGINATION! 
I ask you! If you could do a photoshoot anywhere, anyplace, where would it be? 
Have you created a wishlist or goals for your blog?

  3. Good question. I would love to do a photo tour of all the most beautiful libraries and bookstores in Europe.

    ReplyDelete
  4. Very good question! Anywhere there is water, trees, or a pretty field full of flowers would be a perfect photoshoot location. Her photos turned out gorgeous!

  9. MY goodness, this is ADORABLE! I did a photoshoot once with balloons and I need to again - it was really fun and cute

  10. This looks so sweet! It's a really good question: my ideal photo shoot would probably be something like a feature in Elle Decoration - just dreaming here... Great post! xo

  11. I can see why the Paris balloons theme is an ideal photo shoot. It looks perfect. And a cake shop would be ideal for your blog.

    I'm not sure what my ideal photo shoot would be yet, but maybe something that involves an island.

    ReplyDelete
  12. I just love this shoot, I think Paris and balloons is a fantastically fun idea - reminds me of Audrey Hepburns Funny Face movie somehow...
    I'd do a shoot on the grounds of the Acropolis or somewhere on some ancient rural grounds in China.

  13. Wow the shoot looks absolutely lovely, I love the colourful balloons too and it's nice that she got to fulfill her dreams! I'm not sure what my dream shoot would be, I'll have to think about that :) xx

    Almost Delightful

  14. Love the backdrop of the pictures she took! If I were to think about my dream location, it would definitely have to involve balloons and cupcakes! and maybe somewhere in Europe where all the architecture is beautiful!

    ReplyDelete
  15. those balloons remind me of kandee johnson. I used to b a balloon freak in high school.. thats all i ever wanted for my birthday was dozens of balloons from friends and family :).. Hmmm great question this world is amazing i do not think i could narrow it down to one specific palce i wanna go everywhere!!!

  18. Gorgeous pictures, my personal dream location for outfit pictures would be New York. I love looking at the pictures of it, and I imagine shooting there would be very exciting :) ♥

    ReplyDelete
  19. Oh wow.... these photos are absolutely stunning!! I love each one of them. My ideal photoshoot would be exactly that! I love anything Paris.... One day!!

  20. I also adore Nicole's blog and this Parisian photoshoot is totally gorgeous! I mean how can you go wrong with a fabulous dress, fun balloons and an Eiffel Tower backdrop. I had to smile at your ideal photoshoot setting cause it's so sweet and so you Kim :)

    I would love to be able to do a photo series with Rena and Ian all around the world but for now I can just do fun things with them in NYC haha. Thanks for your super sweet comment on my post today! It totally made my day cause I do try to make R & I's poses as real as possible.

  29. Those photos are really beautiful! They remind me of a Dior parfume ad from a couple of years ago!

    My wish for my blog would be to keep it updated with more travelling stories and beautiful pictures from new places. That would mean that I keep on travelling, so double happiness, for me and my blog!

  30. The idea of just being Paris let alone a photoshoot would be a dream come true in itself!
    I'm not sure what big dreams I have for my blog. It's been such a fun hobby and the thought of being able to make a career of it would be a big dream by itself. I do hope I can achieve some success by being genuine on my blog. =)

  32. Wow, her photo shoot is pure magic and so beautiful, its so great that she got to achieve her bloggers dream. I like your idea, that would be so cute! Good question, I think my dream shoot would be somewhere in Spain, maybe one the streets of Barcelona or Madrid - can't believe I didn't take any pictures there :(

    ReplyDelete
  33. Fab photo shoot and fab blog! Wish I'd done such a shoot when I went to Paris! In my dream shoot I'd be in a swanky Italian abode, surrounded by swanky decor and a mountain of ridiculously fabulous Italian shoes. And here's to dreaming big for our blogs. My goal is to figure out how to gain sponsors and add some of the amazing and cool features I see around but simply have no clue how to do em. Pray for a girl and her dreams!

  34. Gosh these may be my favourite photo shoot photos ever! So whimsical and gorgeous!

  47. These photos are stunning - especially with the pop of colour from the balloons. Your dream photo shoot sounds fun - would love to see those photos! As for mine ...well you've got me thinking.....a desert island....or something involving macarons maybe...!! Thanks for your lovely comment - so pleased you like the gifts I featured. I have emailed you with further details. Have a great weekend, Kim.

  48. I love this post and the Paris post is also a dream of mine! My other dream is that I had more time to blog and less time devoted to my actual job lol!!! Can't wait to see you Charlie and the Chocolate Factory post! If you find a chocolate river you'd better share LOL!!!!

  50. You got me thinking hard Kim but hey whats wrong with a photoshoot with cake, candies and those pretties. Let's go to the Willy Wonka Factory! How about the Cheesecake Factory? Close enough. I want to do mine at my favorite cupcake place. These photos are so fun. Love the dress, balloons and the backdrop of an Eiffel tower. Try to talk my husband to going to France but no luck..ha.

  51. This is a very beautiful photo shoot! Honestly, my blogging wish would be to learn how to take better pics in general! So, maybe a photography lesson? :)

    ReplyDelete
  52. Beautiful photos! Great blog! maybe we can follow each other?

    ReplyDelete
  53. Her photos are absolutely beautiful! I would love to have a photo session somewhere tropical, surrounded by an amazingly blue ocean or somewhere in the middle of the dessert!

    ReplyDelete
  54. Oh Kim - how spectacular !
    Her pictures are magazine worthy.
    You got me thinking... I don't have a PLACE i'd like to take pictures at... however I do have a dream of taking really good quality pictures.

  55. Kim, these are amazing photos! I love her too! My dream is to have my pics taken by the Great Wall of China wearing a couture gown. Weird, isn't it? Haha.

  57. I'd love to have a Paris shoot as well! I tried to take a few pictures on the beach in Mexico, but that was hard. A beach or great city shoot would definitely be on my bucket list!

  58. Kim, I had to click on from instagram. Such an intriguing IG post. Glad I stopped by, Kim. This is such a great post that has me thinking. I am not sure I have a specific goal for my blog but more than anything or place, I would love for somebody out there to provide a venue big enough for all of our community to meet in person and provide hair, makeup and wardrobe for photo shoots with your favorite blogger buddies. dawn suitcase vignettes xo

  60. we have seeb countless bloggers post photos infront of the eiffel tower or with balloons or flying/levitating.well she mixed them altogether!!<3...unleash the madness of wonka!!haha!
    you know my exams are going on now and i am doing these filler posts with no original photos and all and i was really wishing i had a friend who was a photographer!i wore a few outits i could have posted on my blog and i couldn't!so having a rad photog as a friend would be on top of my blog wishlist.as for dream location?that's a toughie..maybe cobbled streets somewhere in europe.

    ReplyDelete
  61. Intriguing question, thank you Kim!
    I'd love a photoshoot in a lavender field, which is not that complicated, I might do it sooner or later.
    My great blog dream is to start an advice giving column: I don't mean to be a fashion guru, but to give advice on their looks to people who are less interested than me in fashion and beauty, helping them figure out what most flatters them. For the moment I'll just keep posting what I like and I'll be happy if I make my readers see pretty and inspiring bits.
    It's the first time I say it in public now that you make me think about it!
    Hugs and hugs!have a great weekend, kisses Coco

  62. beautiful pics!
    paris would be wonderful but i'd still pick nyc if i can have a professional photo shoot. i've been here long enough but there still are many beautiful parts i haven't explored in this town. ;)

  63. I LOVE dreamy thinking caps Kim! What a fab post! I kind of missed out on my "wish" photoshoot, but it would be in Paris. J'adore Paris!!

    Sorry I've been MIA lately. As usual, trying to get organized. Hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving!
    And have a fab weekend!

  64. I absolutely adore Nicole Warne. I've been following her blog for a while now and all her posts are just so glamourous. I feel like she would be the blogger equivalent to Olivia Palmero. I've been saving my red dress for a Christmas post. Hope my photos turn out half as good as hers. I'm enjoying all these posts I've missed out on recently Kim. Hope you're having a great weekend.
