It's been way to long!

I have neglected this blog for a while. I've been working on my fine art photography.  Here's one from a recent series that I just finished. I took the photos for a commercial client and love how they turned out so I took some for fine art.

I've been experimenting with light and various looks. This shot is of Bri standing by the window sill. I need to keep up with this blog more . . . I miss blogging.

The Worlwide Photography Gala Awards

I woke to find the best email in my inbox ever. I decided to enter WPGA's Portrait and People international photography contest. It was my first time so I was afraid and almost talked myself out of it. I'm glad I didn't. One of my images was awarded silver and will appear in a book. Have a wonderful weekend. Liz

I Heart Faces...Scenic Black and White

"Click Photo For Larger View"

This week the I Heart Faces photo challenge is for scenic black and white photos. I've been working with my film camera a lot lately and took this lil model to a topiary garden. It has a beautiful pond filled with lily pads, fish and frogs. I decided to submit this image. I love the old 1940's feel it inspires.

Fix it Friday Week #74

This week's I Heart Faces Fix it Friday Photo is so adorable, I couldn't resist giving it a go at editing. I softened the pumpkin's the bring the attention to the adorable little subject. I adjusted the color curves by giving each RBG curve a slight s curve.
