Great shots! Your daughters are very photogenic. I love how the soft background makes the subjects jump out at you.

They're adorable!
What was the background? It really makes for a cool bokeh.

Thanks!!

These were taken at a man-made wash/greenbelt area by my home. The wash is full of river rocks and it does make a really cool background!

I think the first one is just tooo great of a shot, wow. however they are a bit underexposed and looses a bit of life to the images. if you give permission to play I could tweak it a bit to get some vibrant colors in??

Nice! Love the one of the two together.

Wish I could shots like this of my nieces. But they are a little young and don't know what "stay still" means yet.

Lovely shots, especially the last one. I'm finding the skin tones better in the 3rd shot to be a little nicer than the first two.

Lisa,

I noticed in yours that the white looks a bit too bright - almost washed out. Is this on purpose or is it the size of the photo?

Gorgeous girls, beautiful photos! I agree with the others, with a little more contrast and sharpening and they will be perfect!

They are beautiful. It is so nice they will pose for you.... I don't have any luck with that at my house.


Life is hard...but I just take it one photograph at a time.
