The "K" Boys - Sneak Peak . . .Las Vegas Child Photographer

I had a session with the two CUTEST toe-head little boys you have ever laid eyes on last weekend. Little R had the world's squishiest cheeks, and bluest eyes! Big A was the best helper that a photographer could ask for, and adored his little brother, not to mention a future PRO snowboarder :) Little D even showed up to play with us.

Enjoy the Sneak Peak!

The B Family- Sneak Peak . . .Las Vegas Family Photographer. . .

I spent some time with my best friend and her amazingly beautiful children doing a family shoot last week. We walked all over down town and got some great images of them together, and seperately. It's so much fun to shoot older kids, and capture that personality- from the "Poser" to the "Contemplative". I Love You Guys!

Enjoy the Sneak Peak!

Little B- Sneak Peak . . . Las Vegas Children's Photographer

Monday I had to chance to snap some photos of Little B- my hair dresser's son (LOVE you Erin - Circa Salon).

Fix it Friday- On Satyrday... Oops! {Las Vegas Children's Photographer}




This week's photo, which was sent to us by Amy Pinney, is proof positive that many, many photos are fixable and we can save many precious moments even if they are taken in less-than-perfect circumstances.
Amy wrote: "The photo I'm submitting is one of my daughter watching her Grandpa play Pinball. It's very closely cropped to include just her face and arms propped on the machine, which you can only see enough of to know what it is. I'm very interested to see what the I Heart Faces team can do with it!"


The Original

My Fix #1
1. Opened the image in Adobe Bridge and Adjusted the Exposure/Noise in RAW
2. Ran Coffee Shop Perfect Portrait
3. Cropped
4. Duplicated background, Ran Gaussian Blur- deleting from details
5. Added Vintage Grunge texture to deter from the useless background,
removing from skin and pin ball machine


My Fix #2
1. Started with same image as Fix #1
2. Ran Coffee Shop Splendor B&W
3. Lightened the contrast layer over her eyes
4. Adjusted brown layer to suit taste.
