Textured Images

First, I just want to share the new addition to the family. It's a long story, but let's just say it involves my husband and son and a trip to the feedstore. Gatlin named his little duck himself -- "Slanky." I got some cute photos of the two together, so I had to share.


Now, on to the texture. I just wanted to show some effects that can be done to enhance your photos. If you like this look, please let me know. I will try to pick a few of the images best suited for this processing during my editing, and show you during proofing.

This photo has a light texture and a vintage color.


The photos of Gatlin and Carsyn alone were processed using the same linen-like texture. The image of the two together has a "grunge" texture applied.

Outdoor Shots

I have been needing to practice taking more outdoor shots using natural light and the weather is finally cooperating! Here are some more shots of Gatlin and Carsyn. They always get compliments on their eyes, and Wow! did they show up in these shots.

Carsyn Under the New Light

Ok, so I know I already have a picture of Carsyn in her tutu, but I had to get another with my new light! I am wanting to get a couple of larger prints (or maybe canvases) done of her and Gatlin, so we did a reshoot :) She was actually pretty cooperative and liked wearing her fluffly little tutu!

Trying out another set-up here. I think I like it!

Olivia

This little beauty is 5 months old. She has incredible baby blues and loves to play with her toes. She was great for her pictures and loves to smile for her mommy.

Hayden and Andy

These are two good looking boys! Andy is 4 and so friendly; Hayden was getting his one year pictures. He is just too cute--love the mohawk--and active! Such a great family. Thanks
