B&W Wednesday-Baby Grace @ 14 Weeks

On Tuesday I was able to capture Grace doing her baby thing. She is so amazing!

 

Baby Grace

I have no idea why she made this face. Okay well maybe I do. :) She does not like her chair and I think her face says it all.

 

Black & White Weddesday-Semi-Formal

 

Last week I had the privilege of taking the Semi-formal photos for my granddaughter,her best friend Emily pictured above, their dates and a few other people. This is one of my favorite B&W photos so I thought that I would enter it into this weeks challenge. Also the preset that I used to create this look is called Vintage Stone and it is the very first preset that I've created.  I hope that you like it as much as I do. Thanks for stopping by. Smile. :)  

 

A Man & His Tools & A First Time Nonni

Once again I am playing in 2 challenges this week. The frist one is Wordless Wednesday. I did not take this photo today but it's one I would ike to "show off" taken this past Sunday.

Nonni

My daughter with her very first grandchild. She has chosen to be called Nonni. It is Italian for Grandmother. We are half Italian and I love that she wanted a part of her heritage to be a part of her being a grandmother.

 

 

A photo of Wayne finishing up one of our DIT projects this week.  I can hardly wait to blog about our latest project. My husband, Wayne loves his tools.........he busy more of them every time we are at a home supply store which is often. Hence the title "A Man & His Tools.  I did this one for the Black & White Wednesday challenge.

Thanks so much fro stopping by. Smile. :)

2 Wednesday Challenges

Today I am participating in 2 challenges. The first one is Show Off Your Shot and the second one is Black and white Wednesday.

I decided to play with natural indoor light. I love both indoor and outdoor natural light . I hate using flash and as a rule I do not use it. As I was walking past my bedroom a few days ago the sun was coming in softly and I loved the way that my room looked, the way that certain items in my room  looked. I quickly grabbed my camera and started shooting something on my dresser.

 

I took many photos of this particular piece on my dresser from different angles and using different settings. This is just one of my favorite photos that I captured using the lovely light gently shinning into my room.

 

After taking many photos of the flowers on my dresser I decided to make one of them back and white and a little darker then the light really was.

 

 

Thanks for stopping by. SMILE. :)

Wordless Wednesday But With Words

I wont pretend to understand this photo challenge but I like the freedom that it allows me in order to play along. So here I am playing

The most recent photos that I have taken are still on the card in my camera. So I thought that I would share the 3 top favorite photos of Grace that I have taken so far. I can hardly wait to see her on Mother's Day.

Taken in the studio.

A candid photo taken out on the patio.

 

All 3 photos were taken when Grace was 6 weeks old. She is now 9 weeks old.

Thanks so much for stopping by.  SMILE. :)

 

A Few Photos Of Spring

Here are a few photos that I took for this weeks "Leap into spring" Challenge.I hope you enjoy them. :)

 

 
 (As always please double click on each photo to see them up close and clearer.)

I love when the white and pink bossoms appear on the trees.

 

 .......And the trees begin to bud.

 

When you see the baby acorns on the pine trees it's a sign that they are shedding thier seeds. Another wonderful sign of spring.

 

Even though this photo was taken inside my home, I know that it is spring for sure when I see the tulips blooming at our local Garden Centers. I do not grow them so I buy them.

 

Have a wonderful day and Smile. :)
