Posting at SHINE

After almost 3 years of posting to this blog I've decided I am going to simplify my life and put all posts (for all my children!) on my "photography blog": SHINE!
I hope to see you there!

smelling the flowers

I decided to work on my photography skills with these flowers. Silly Miss Tia who never likes to be in photos for me, didn't want me to take any photos without her in them either! She climbed up on the counter in her Princess outfit-of-the-day to smell the flowers (or get in the way of me taking a photo!).
processed in lightroom with Rebecca Lily's Faded Olive preset (just learning Lightroom that I recently purchased for the $99 student price, anyone with a child in school qualifies! anyhow I don't quite have it figured out.).

Gumboots with . . .

a smocked dress?

okay, I wasn't too sure it was the right occasion when the Princess of Quite-A-Lot was emphatic that she was going to wear this smocked dress to Bible Study Fellowship on Tuesday. I was even less sure that the gumboots looked good with it. She chose a pink rubber butterfly hairband too (at least that went with the gumboots!). hmmmmmmmmm. I wonder how opinionated she will be about fashion when she is 3!

(not the best photos, but hey, we were on the way out the door for Bible Study!)
