re: Official Photography Thread. ♥

CC? I know the location isn't ideal :/ SO had the vehicle all day so we couldn't drive anywhere so I had to work with what we had here. I wanted to put her in the weeds without the road but it was extremely muddy & I didn't want to risk her falling & staining her birthday outfit before the party.. It was expensive :/

I think I've been staring at the computer too much today & editing too much. I keep doubting whether I like what I'm editing & just can't decide what I want to do.

Aww, boo.. sorry!

I think it's cute actually. The wind is working in your favor.

Thank you! I really actually liked how the ballons were blowing. It just made it hard for her to look at me, lol. But I liked that she was looking in the direction of the balloons in this one. I don't know why, but I'm being super critical of everything I edit today. I think I just need to walk away today & start fresh tomorrow. haha.

Sometimes taking a break helps.

Love it! Sometimes you get good ones without even knowing it   I think I might try a couple pics of my baby with the lipstick kiss today. I'm not getting very creative because I have absolutely nothing else to go with it. I'm just gonna do a face shot I think.

Thank you   Go for it! I think just the face shot would be precious. Do you have any pearls or necklaces or something she could wear?

Thanks! I just tried editing again .. I'm not sure if I want to stick my my usual clean edits or if I want to go a little more "artistic" with it. I'm uploading to tinypic now & maybe you guys can help me out.

first edit.

second edit.


third edit.



Or I'm open to suggestions on something else to try!

2 and 3 look almost identical to me, so one of those, lol.

Quoting awesomebrandi:" 2 and 3 look almost identical to me, so one of those, lol."

They pretty much are   Lol. One just has a really subtle burnt edges action. I need to find my editing style. I tend to just go for clean "true to life" edits I guess you could say. But I thought these ones were okay to play around with some since they're fun & everything. Thanks!
