Softer Side

I love the look on her face. I had just redone her hair, and we hadn't launched face first into the sandbox yet, so she is looking very neat and tidy. I am happy with how the color turned out - usually her skin tone just does not look right 'de-saturated' (happy accident in the photo edit program) - but I really like this.


My problem - does this look like a mug shot? After all that cajoling (ahem - begging) to get her to look at the camera, she finally did and I took the picture straight-on, right smack in the center.


Trying, trying, trying... Good thing she is so freakin' cute, it makes up for my lackluster shooting skills.

Hope everyone had a good weekend.
Peace.

  1. with the light green back ground it could totally be a mug shot. that is pretty funny. her hair is great and I love how sharp she is compared to the background. LT is pretty dark and while I totally love it I haven't figured out how to take very good photos of him yet. The black and white look much better than the color.

  2. The light green background is acutally our grass... I just had the appeture open so wide the background became very blurred. Maybe if the grass was sharper it would be less mug-shot-like? Oy. I should take a class!
    I agree with the skin-tones - I haven't got it all figured out yet. In quite a few of my pictures poor Tes looks oddly orange-tinged (how does that happen?!).
