Heather Marks: Oh this is just precious! Perfect Christmas card for when the kids are teenagers ;) Great job!

misty: Love it!! ++

Sheila: This is so sweet! What a fantastic moment.

Ok, so I have to share!

December 22, 2008

So, I already shared the images from the little mini shoot I did with my kiddos.  I wanted to share the cards I made with them, but I decided I had better wait until after my friends and family received them in the mail.  I was pretty late getting them out - but it’s been a couple of years since I actually did Christmas cards, so I am just thankful they went out this year!  So, if you haven’t opened your mail from me, don’t look.  HA!  Anyway, here it is!

My boys!

December 14, 2008

Well, I promised I would share a few of my boys from last weekend.  I don’t want to bury my ‘can’s for comments’ thread so please, if you haven’t seen it, go HERE to see and leave a comment to help John 3:16 Mission!

Ok, so here are my boys.  I love them so much I could just eat them up!  They don’t look like they would ever fight, do they?  OH how I wish that were true!  But, at least they LOOK angelic!  :)

Jeni: oh wow, you have some gorgeous kids!! *love* that first shot!

Sam: Your kids are adorable!! #1 is such a sweet shot!!

Kayleen T.: These black and whites are perfect in everyway! Do you use an action for b&w or just do your own thing?

admin: I do use an action for them, but basically I do my normal edits to the color image and then add a gradient map layer, adjust contrast in curves a teeny bit and add a subtle chocolate tint. Thank you for the sweet comment!

Variation is a good thing!

The possibilities are endless when it comes to digital photography!  That said, it would be physically impossible for me to be able to sit with every client and customize every photograph.  I typically will apply certain effects (color pop, black and white) based on what I feel is appropriate for the image, but I wanted to show some effects that customers could choose from, too.  So, I took one image and applied various effects so you could see what they look like! 

Fun, huh???

Some friends and I went on a fun outing yesterday.  I couldn’t miss the opportunity for some snaps, of course, and here are a couple of my favorites of the day!

Just my kids…

July 18, 2008

My boys are getting so big… I wanted to get some new shots of them and I just love these!  We were getting eaten by mosquitos (you can see bites in one of these!) and yet they were such good sports!  The little one is about to get a haircut so I really wanted some shots of him before we did the chop job!  The older one is showing off his new ‘do’ in these!  Thanks, guys, for being such good sports!!!
