Color or Black and White?

The big question: should I get color or black and white?

 

The answer: which ever you prefer!!! (I know, not helpful)

If I convert a photo to black and white I will try to always give you the color version as well.  I'm a black and white lover from way back but I realize that not everyone feels the same way.  That's why I offer both edits, so you can choose the one you prefer.  After all, it's going on your wall, not mine.

PS - I do remove birth marks (like this little beauty's) but I prefer to embrace them.  I feel they are what makes each of us unique and special.

Fun in the Sun

I have to tell you, I love, love, LOVE the Clickin Moms workshops.  This is an assignment that I did for the workshop I am currently in.  If you'd like a sidewalk chalk session please feel free to contact me.

 

 



Meet Precious Miss C

I'd like to introduce you to the lovely little Miss C.  She was WIDE awake for her whole session but was very content.  Such a sweet girl and a wonderful, loving family.

SOOC vs EDIT

Have you ever wondered why it takes your photographer a few days to get your photos back to you?  Well, unlike instore portrait studios (that seem to be disappearing by the second) your independant photographer (like myself) takes the time to look at each photo and perfect it!  Here is an example of one of my favorites of my 5mth old.  While the straight out of camera (sooc) photo is ok the edit is way better.

 

 



Gerber Baby

I started Clickin Mom's 201 Beyond the Basics workshop today and this is shot #1 from that workshop.  I'm so excited to expand my photography knowledge to provide you with a better product.  Enjoy this lovely photo of my gorgeous girl.

Spring Family Fun

My family and I went on a lovely walk at the Devil's Hopyard yesterday.  I thought I would share some photos from our visit.  I hope you are enjoying spring where you are.

 

 



Color Inspiration Series

I got this awesome idea from Clickin Moms.  I will occasionally be posting color inspiration photos now.  So very neato!

 

Today's inspiration comes from the photo I named Tiptoe Through the Tulips.

 

Feel free to share and pin away!  I'd be honored if you used it and linked a photo of use of this color palette in the comments.

Spring is in the Air!

I have been just dying for some warmer weather and though it was still chilly out today I just felt the need to get a colorful shot that would make me *feel* warmer.  I just love how this came out.  Anyone who knows me knows I adore purple so this is just perfect.  Enjoy!
