Edit Me @ My Reflection of Something Photography:

(My edit is first, followed by the original photo)

In Lightroom 3, I cropped a bit, and straightened a tiny bit. I converted the photo to black and white and added a slight split tone.

 

My photo of my husband and Troy was chosen as a favorite last week at The Paper Mama, and my photo of Ella putting money in the piggy banks was chosen for first place last week at The Trendy Treehouse!

Best Shot of a Child

The Paper Mama is having another fun competition: your best shot of a child. I know I’ve shared this photo many times, but I think it is my best of shot of a child (probably why I’ve shared it so many times!).

Sleep @ Simplicity

This is far from technically perfect, but it is great to me. Ella RARELY falls asleep in the car!

Circles @ The Trendy Treehouse

Sweet Shot Tuesday @ My 3 Boybarians

Just a mom shot, but so much more than a mom shot. I know I still have a lot to learn about my external flash, but I’m thankful that I have it, and that I can get good indoor shots without blasting my subject with the pop-up flash! :)
