Not on topic just up with a fun storyboard I worked on today. Hope everyone has a great night.

Bountiful Temple

So I went to go to my PS class tonight and stupid me didn't realize that last week was the last day (I didn't go cause I had a migraine). The cool thing was the Bountiful Temple was just up the street and I thought perfect I can take some pictures. This is an important place for me. This is where I got married 3 years ago. I made covenants here with the Lord that I would strive to live after the example He set and follow his guidence and teachings. I have faith in the covenants I made with my husband in this temple that our marriage will last through all eternity and that as I strive to be obedient to the commandments and follow the example the Savior set for me I will receive the blessings of exaltation. I come to the Temple often to renew my covenants with the Lord and recieve the strength I need to overcome my imperfections. The temple is a reminder to me of what kind of person I want/can be and helps me become that person. I have a long way to go but am greatful for the loving patience of the Savior.

And this one is just for fun. Thanks for all your wonderful compliments yesturday. It really means a lot to me to get feedback. And for any family members who are looking you can comment also and I promise I will respond.

Faith in the next generation

This is dd's great grandma, she broke her hip and had surgery. Here we are getting her settled into the rehab facility. I love this picture and how great it turned out. DD will cherish this picture her whole life. It makes me remember that we need to realize that our futures ly in the hands of the next generation and that we need to have faith in them to do what is right. And hope that we have taught and prepared them to take on that responsibility.

And for fun a few story boards that I have been working on. I have taken into consideration all your feedback and tried to apply that to what I have done. Thanks for looking and CC is welcome. Have a great day.

Just for fun

Not much to show today. Took this picture yesturday and I just loved it. We went out to lunch with my MIL or Uncle in law and there was construction going on next door. DD thought it was so neat they way this worked. She spent most of her time sitting on the table watching out the window. When we left she ran and sat at the edge of the sidwalk so she could watch it closer and she wouldn't get up. I thought it was so cute I had to grab my camera. I hope this doesn't mean she'll be interested in construction. Thanks for all the cc on yesturdays pics. I got a lot of feedback and will be working hard on figuring out metering and exposure.

Green Dress

The sun was setting and so I thought I would run into the back yard and take some pics. DD's uncle got her this dress for her birthday. It's great he likes to buy her clothes but he has no kids and so doesn't know anything about sizes. She is in 24 mth -2t and the dress is a size 4, not a 4t but a 4. Well dd loves the dress and she always wants to wear it so I figured I would put her in it and get some pictures for her uncle. She is so funny in the dress as she trips over it but loves to twirl and dance (currently begging me to dance with her). So I tried some different techniques on these and would love some feedback with my PPing. I'm starting to think that I really suck cause I don't know how to get the look I want. Also do you all think I am doing something wrong with my settings? What am I missing? Thanks for the cc last night. Those picks were fun to take and I can't wait to give them to my friend.

Green couch (ok a bit of a stretch)

I went to visit a friend today and she said I could take some pictures. Her little guy is 4wks old so I would say this is my first newborn shoot, though I was just taking pics of a friends baby to practice. Her oldest son saw me pull out the camera and came running over and jumped in the pictures. He is so photogenic, the camera really loves him. He's 5 and he let me pose him and everything. I have never in my life worked with someone so cooperative. Man it felt good. I really had fun doing this and would love to do it again. Though I'm sure not every subject is as cooperative. Thanks for all your cc on yesturdays pic I think that I may have to get it printed and hang in her room.
