A Few More...




It's hard shooting 4 kids and getting some decent shots, especially when they don't want to have their picture taken. I didn't take enough....next time. I did encounter a problem with the lighting. Learned a new technique in PS. I still feel like the final outcome looks too overdone. It is a wonderful thing to learn more, but at the same time I demand more from myself.
I've realized that I don't pay enough attention to the background areas. I am constantly cropping too close and leaving body parts off. I'm not entirely happy with my color correction as well. Live and learn right?
I can't wait to get another chance in a few months when the weather has cooled down and we can go outside! Hopefully I can get some better ones.

Heather, I love these pictures. What do you mean they are "overdone"? The one in the middle...his eyes are awesome!

the focus is really good on these. are you learning PS in any of your classes or are you just learning things as you go?

Erica: The last one..it was hard to fix and I don't think I got it totally right.
Jamie: I am learning PS in the photography class I am taking. Just things related to photo correction.
