Trying out - Textures

Seems like textures are the rage at the moment. They work better on non-studio shots but I tried some on this fabulously cute Little Big Shot Shevon, and they look great :) Maybe it's her adorable face...

17-35 - test shots

I guess you cannot take what I have posted below as true test shots as I did some post processing to the images. It takes more effort and creativity to shoot portraits with a wide angle. Obviously you have to avoid putting your subjects too close to the edges as this will cause them to distort unglamourously :p However, it's interesting when you get subjects up close yet have a sense of what's going on behind them due to the wide angle perspective.



In case you are wondering why there's no ball in the shot, it's the sand he's kicking at!






These are Dylan's feet.








Kayden asking the zillionth question for the day :s Since he turned 3, it's been why this, why that? It gets really annoying after like the 3rd question is been repeated 10 times.

Lensbaby - test shots

Some test shots with the Lensbaby.
Not easy to use, especially with kids when they move so fast it's almost near impossible to get the focus right. BUT when you DO get it, it's sweeEeet! :)

Check out my little chubbster's new look! kekeke :D
I asked Charlene to help me look out for a spectacle frame small enough to fit him when she is shopping and she found these for me. Pretty toot in a cool retro way don't you think? Especially with my little darling wearing them ;) Ashley shot him while i tried to make him laugh. Then she processed the images with the Adobe software Lightroom. Love love love the colour effect for the picture above! Makes me wanna ditch Bibble and go into the Lightroom :p


layout idea copied from Char's blog, i just switched the images around.
