Stayner Family

While I was home in AZ for Thanksgiving I got to see one of my old roomies and her family. She has the cutest little kids. She asked if I'd take some family pictures for her. I did--the family was great--my camera expertice was not--I got lots of grainy, noisy photos--with perfect smiles and eyes facing the camera...bummer that my little teensy weensy viewer on my camera made me think they were awesome. These are some of the best ones I got. I wish I could retake them. I have soooo much to learn.

Baby A

This little sweetheart was wide eyed and happy. I took these pics in my friends house and don't have the capabilities on my camera to truly capture great light. We had all the windows open--I had to do a lot of lightening the exposure. I had a good time learning how to do this on photoshop. Because of this some of the pics looked lots better in black and white. It kinda hid the grainy look from the indoor lighting. My tripod wasn't working well either....not good when tripod is wiggly. Oh well--I got some cute little pics of Baby A. I hope that they like them.

Playing at the Park

This is a fun little girl from my son's little Joy School group. We took a little walk across the street to listen, feel, hear, and see what we could smell. I ran back in the house to quickly grab my camera to snap some memories of their cute little group. I'm glad I did. I got some fun little pictures of all the little kids as they were running around and exploring the "wheat". This is just one of the cute little munchkins. Ü Adorable!

Just playing with photoshop some more! It's been fun playing with textures and color selections.
