Something New: On the sidebar under the sponsors I added a photo and description of each of my boys. If you click on the name or photo it will take you to all my post about each one of them. Just thought I would mention that.

So after doing Edit Me yesterday. I really wanted to do one of my own photos with a texture. I was also finishing up this family session and thought this would be the perfect photo. What do you think? {Hover over to see the before}

I used Kim Klassen’s Yesteryear Texture on this photo.

This was taken in April but it is my favorite architecture photo.

 

Another Day Another Diaper


I loved this. She was so adorable with her sunglasses and purse.

Tomorrow is my 26th birthday! Crazy. Doesn’t even feel like my birthday. I did get to order this point and shoot for my birthday and for our trip to Philadelphia to see Monster Jam next weekend. I can’t wait. I just hope it does better then the last point and shoot I ordered. I just need a good carry around camera because it is hard to keep up with a DSLR and the boys. Just too much for me.

Don’t Miss A Thing!

    love the pictures! I found your blog while visiting another and it lead me here...so glad. I was reading about your son diagnosis; my oldest daughter born extremely premature and was watched closely for cerebral palsy while she does not have CP she still has issues that calls for both physical therapy and occupational therapy. I am amazed at how much improvement has happened for her over the last few years and 2 months ago she reached all of her physical therapy milestones and was released from PT...we just did not think it would happen (she has never ever allowed 'limitations' to limit her!), she is amazing. She still goes to OT once a week and actually like it ~looks forward to it every week... ...a true fighter indeed!

    That's an awesome edit! The other pics are great too! Hope your new P&S works out well. I'm with you. I don't bring along my DSLR unless I know I'm for sure taking a bunch of photos. Otherwise, it's just so big to lug around.

    Nice job on the texture. I find it tricky to use textures on people, but I like it when others do it :)

    I can see why that is your favorite architecture photo Sarah- it's so beautiful & has so much meaning. I also love how it pops against the sky.

    I LOVEE your texture edit! Such a difference and it was so beautiful before! Textures can go a longg way contrary to what some believe! Nice work!

      Thank you. First I ran Pioneer Woman's Old West action. Then dragged the texture onto the photo and did soft light blending mode at 60% then used a layer mask at 50% to delete it off of the little boy and his clothes. I then duplicated that layer and did multiply blending mode at 40%. If you need more information just let me know. I did all of this in Photoshop CS5.
