I Heart Faces Fix-It Friday... Las Vegas Children's Photographer

Another wonderful opportunity over at I heart faces to work on my photoshop skills.

This week's photo comes from Caroline at Frogmum. She writes: "My daughter is standing in our front garden - I was laying down. It was a beautiful day, but her face was in full shade & looks a bit blurry. She looks too dull against the blue sky. I'd like to be able to pull the whole thing up and make her pop out without losing the beauty of that blue sky."
