Josh and Joshua - an edit and a Freebie!!

Josh made a new buddy at the family reunion this past weekend. Here is a picture of the two of them with toothpicks that I edited tonight. This is also an example of the first time I have used a picture I took myself as a texture. This is the original picture of the texture. Please feel free to save this and use it yourself. This is also my first official freebie!! You should be able to right click/save as on this image and save it to use.


Next is the original picture of Josh and Joshua...

This is my edited version...

I erased the texture from their faces as they looked like they had measles.. I really like the end result.

I Heart Faces...er uhm Feet!

I am working on my entry for this weeks I Heart Faces Contest on yep..you heard it! Feet! But alas..I am conflicted and therefore I need your help! I have more than one "foot" or "feet" photo that I like so I need everyone to vote!

Photo 1
I really like this one, but is that just because of the memories of our trip to Hawaii. I am not sure it is a photographic master piece!

Photo 2
I really really really like this one, but does footprints count as feet? I think it should...what about you?

Graduation Announcement Design Services

There are so many needs for design services now that I wanted to share a few examples of my recent designs. Since Senior portraits are in high demand right now, I will focus on those today.

Creating graduation cards instead of sending out the canned ones the school sells, is one of the newest trends. Mail these amazing custom photo cards combined with a decorative information sheet to family and friends. Once the event is over, they still have a great photo of your graduate as a keep sake.



These designs can be created from photo shoots I do personally or with your own photos. Contact me today for more information.
