Another adorable baby turned toddler. I had a lot of fun taking Haylee’s pictures when she was a newborn, but it was nothing compared to how much fun I had taking her one year photos.

A couple of weeks ago the babies and I had an impromptu photo shoot at our local park. Even though it was beyond hot outside I couldn’t resist the cuteness of their matching black shirts and shoes.

Don’t tiny cuddly babies grow up so fast?!?! Little Marlee is already one! Wowsers. Here she was one year ago….
And here are some of my favorites from Marlee’s first birthday party shoot!!! She had a blast (just imagine the scream was a scream of pure joy) dipping into the chocolate cake and then as an added bonus the white cake. What a little cutie camera ham!!!
An old Milton Favorite re-visited with textures! Can you tell I’m having a blast using my new, fun toys! =)

These are two 8×10 storyboards that I made for an empty wall in my kitchen. I love the brightness of Shenzie and the muted browns of Heaten. I know every parent thinks their kids are the cutest and of course I am no different. Aren’t they the cutest little beans!

The babies and I visited The Discovery Park at Aliante yesterday. They loved feeding and chasing after the ducks. Here are a couple of photos from our fun day using some new textures.

This was the collage I created for Stacey. She surprised Jimmy for Father’s Day with this collage made into a pop out. I love it, Stacey loved it, and most important, Jimmy loved it!

Still practicing with Actions. All of the following photos have Vintage or Urban Processing Action added, or a combination of them both. I’m really liking the results…what do you think?

I have been using Adobe Photoshop for years, but have barely scratched the surface of what it can do. I have a lonnnnnnnnnnnnng way to go and there will always be something to learn. I have been experimenting with Actions, Black and White Conversions, and Color. Here are a few examples of my newest experiments.
The top photo is the original with some minor retouching. Bump to Contrast and bump up in Curves The second photo has a Boost Action on it courtesy of The Pioneer Woman.

The next set is my old conversion to Black and White and my new conversion to Black and White.
