Jones Photo shoot

These aren't all the pictures...just some that I have edited so far (seems like this is becoming a photography blog...maybe I should start one of those...)

I'm not sure if I am fond of the editing...I think I might check into some actions...

Using my new camera

On Tuesday I took a huge leap and bought the Canon 7D. Today, I took it out for a test run with Bryon and his girls. My main objective today was to use the light. I wanted great light in my pics, but that was assuming I would have fabulous focus.

But I didn't. Not sure if it was my camera, but every.single.picture I took today lacked sharp focus. Kinda hoping it is my camera so I know it's not me, but notwanting it to be at the same time since that means I will have to get it fixed.

Even with all that said, I have started editing the pictures and have one so far that is my favorite.

It's still a bit underexposed, though. (insert heavy sigh here). I just wonder when I will finally get it all right.

My 3rd Newborn Photoshoot & my newest niece!

Last Saturday I went to Vickie's house to meet baby Taylor and take her pictures. She was AWESOME and I enjoyed every minute I was there!

Here are her first of many pictures I will take of Taylor!!!

My 4th newborn

Saturday, I took pictures of Taylor for my 3rd newborn and lots of the pictures are turning out pretty cute (if I do say so myself!!). I will post those pictures soon.

Today, I took pictures of my friend Amber's new baby who is 5 days old today. The cloud cover was heavy today, so I had lots of low light to work with and he just didn't really want to sleep!

I have been doing lots of cloning on the backgrounds and lots of noise removal.

I have several more posing scenarios to go, but so far, this is what I've done. I felt like I did much better with the set-ups, partly because I used several of her blankets that have meaning to her, but I really struggled with the focus and clarity. I know the low light messed with my clarity, but not sure about my focus. I will post the next several series in a couple of days.
