I swear this morning Alexis yelled out from her crib "MOM MA". Maybe it's me, but I'm just sayin'. Hope no one was affected by all those terrible tornadoes in the south yesterday and today. I think that front is supposed to come through here tonight, but I don't think it'll be as bad here.
I have more of Mark and Vicki's engagement session here
First thing I noticed was the yellow curb in the right corner, very distracting. Cropped it. Worked with the levels because it was a little more blue than I like. Brightened it up, uped the saturation a tad. Resized and sharpened for the web. Which led to my clean edit.
I played around with actions and liked the result with Nelly Nero's - Whipped Cream action.
All I did was crop and use the PW's black beauty, then used the coffee shop's action - baby powder room and used the define eye and brushed it over their eye lashes. Resized and sharpened for the web. I like the result.

ReplyDeleteI love the whipped cream edit! just beautiful and perfect! your black and white is just beautiful too!
ReplyDeleteI love the Whipped Cream edit too!
ReplyDeleteI do really like the Whipped Cream edit...is that a free action?
ReplyDeleteThe BW makes a huge difference. It helps my eye to focus more on the detail of the shot (ie. the facial expression) vs. the background.
Gorgeous edit! Love the whipped cream.
ReplyDeleteLove the whipped cream edit - so whimsy!
ReplyDeleteOooh- I really love how those turned out. The 1st edit is my favorite!

ReplyDeleteExcellent job on both these! I love the moment captured in the first shot -- beautiful! And your edit really brightened them up, but didn't go overboard with everything else.
