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.

My beautiful little flower girl.

While I was in San Diego last month I coerced beautiful, little Ayla to model for me. She was more than happy to pose for the camera. She has TONS of personality and it shows in every single picture. I added some fun filters on these two…the originals can be found here.

Does it get any cuter!?!

My niece Haylee Lynn. She is so photogenic and happy (even though I couldn’t get her to smile). She was so much fun to photograph.

Wow, it’s been quite awhile since I’ve updated here. I will make sure I do a better job in the future. Just a new photo of the twoddlers.

Here are a couple more photos from the Milton Family. I just love, love, love taking pictures of babies. They are so sweet and innocent and perfect.

Meet Carter, this beautiful little three month old baby. Carter was so happy during our photoshoot I didn’t want it to end. Isn’t he adorable. I just want to eat him up!
