It's a GIRL thing . . .   What else can I say?


 

Well . . .   What do you think?

I THINK I got a little carried away with this incredible newborn shot . . .

 Somehow all I want to do is just love on these little babies, I think it shows up in my editing.  I love 'em like this -



And I love 'em like this -

Then I usually open the current project up and do some editing in Photoshop. I really like to use many of the MCP actions for Photoshop, many of the Totally Rad actions . . . a little Florabella . . . But today I wanted to feature something a little different! For all you peeps out there who want to keep those expenses down (and when it comes to photography - WHO doesn't want to keep the expenses down?  Oh the money that could be spent . . .) I thought I would do a totally FREE edit from start to finish for you . . . Yes, you can do some LOVELY things without spending any money! Isn't THAT good news :D I'm going to feature one of my FAVORITE websites -

Rita is the blogger behind CoffeeShop and a stay-at-home, home-schooling Mom to two naughty but adorable little boys (Duke is 7 and Imp is 4), wife to her high school sweetheart, and passionate about all things photography.

And the best part about The Coffee Shop -  Everything on her blog is 100% free!

(although if you LOVE her products like I do - you can kick a little donation her way or

download her MEGA action pack with the works in one download for $49 - one of the best bargains you'll find online!)

So . . . let me take you through this fun edit - from start to finish - all FREE :D
 . . . this would be the unedited start up version . . .

Yes, simply must share just one little sneak peek from a recent engagement session. I know I promised RIDICULOUS . . . but we got RIDICULOUS and DELISH!  Yes, very delish! Did you know the canyons of Utah are "springing" out all over the place!  Gorgeous beautiful scenery in Utah this spring! And what a lovely day it was . . . so blessed :) Ok . . . just one little sneaky peaky . . . Then hold onto your hearts until I post the rest of the deliciousness! Here is M'liss and Parker - truly bff's . . . truly . . .




I must say . . . our only challenge in taking these amazing photos - I never stopped laughing the whole session :)  (Very big grin!)
