Baby blues...

I love these kids... and I love their eyes...

i Heart Faces

It's Best Face Photo of 2010 this week at i Heart Faces, so when I went back and took a look at my pics, this one of my son just jumped out at me. He's such a little character, and being the baby of the family, he really knows how to grab your attention. I just thought this picture portrayed one of his cuter expressions really well, and thought that I would share. (He was either concerned when I took this picture, or he was telling me about something rather serious, in two year old language.) 

Playing with Photoshop...

...and my new reflectors! I am having so much fun learning about this!!! My kids even want cameras for Christmas. Yeah, I don't know, we'll see... but I think it is so adorable that they are excited about picture taking. Just makes my heart happy. :)

More Black & White

I was out a few days ago taking some pics of a good friend of mine, when I happened to snap this picture. He's actually not who I was supposed to be taking pictures of, but I couldn't resist. He's my son, and I happen to think he's one of the most adorable little guys on the planet! :) So, I had to share. I'll be posting pics of the photoshoot another day... I'm actually editing those ones now. 

I really loved the location we were at, so green and alive, even though it's November and leaves are on the ground, but black & white just made this photo POP for me... It took away the distracting colors & varying hues of green & yellow, so you can instead focus on the subject. That's how it seems to me, anyway. 

I love natural light...

Decided to take my ironing board, draped a blanket over it, positioned it in front of a window and tried to see what shots I could get... my two youngest were great sports. They were awfully patient with me... it was a lot of fun, and I got some cute pictures from it. Still playing with editing, so some of the pics are a slightly different color tone than others. Just playing with it to see which one I liked best. Anyway, enjoy!

I wish weather like this would stay... forever.

It was a beautiful fall day, with no rain in sight... so what did I do? Make my boys do a photoshoot with me, of course. They were good sports about it, thankfully. There were only a few moments when their patience was at an end...
