Learning Photography

I have really been looking forward to this weekend for awhile. The Pixel Fairy Princess, an amazing and talented photographer, came to my home to help me develop my photography skills. After maintaining the girls' blogs for four years, I appreciate the value it has brought our family and intend to keep this going as long as it is continues to be beneficial. Therefore, it is time for me to work on my photography skills to better record our special moments together. I am so thrilled with the new skills I have learned and I cannot wait to practice and improve upon them.

Attached are a handful of pictures that I have been learning with this weekend. My 12 year old neice Miranda agreed to come over and play model for us and she was fantastic. We even managed to sneak in a visit to the Getty Museum.

Beautiful pictures! You are so lucky to have PFP pay a visit to your house! I am going to one of her workshops this spring and can't wait. I, too am trying hard to improve my photography!

I can't wait to see more pictures.

Oh my goodness, these are gorgeous! She's laying on the reflector in the 2nd one, right? I LOVE that trick! Debbie taught me so much, but I still have TONS to learn. The 50D sure is making it easier to get good shots, though. :)

Thanks for the sweet comments!
