Family Pictures

My friend let us borrow her tripod to practice some motion pictures. I figured why not get some family photos too! We've been married over a year and need some replacements for all the wedding pictures. So they worked like this: Brad would go pose while I played with angles/lighting. Then I'd set the timer and it would snap 4 pictures. (Just to get a full smile in)Then I played with some of our photos in photoshop!! I was so happy with how it worked out!!

This one is my first attempt at vintage. This one was sepia, the settings done by photoshop.Natural, just cropped and hid some dandelions.
Black and white w/ a high contrast. I thought it was cool.


There's just a few!! I love pictures so of course we have TONS of them!! Bradley was such a trooper!! :) There was also a LOT of goofing off!!

SUN SPOT!!! I love having sun spots in pictures, I have no idea how to get them, but LOVE it when they show up!Brad's reaction to the picture below... "We're here!!" haha
Brad surfing the toy.


He didn't think I could do it... so wrong!

  4. You guys are crazy explorers...Where on earth is that park? I lived in Rexburg forever and NEVER have seen that jivin' park.
    Love the pictures, I love that you can see in Brad's face how he adores you and will be happy with you forever and always (a bit cheesy, maybe but it's true!).
