I Heart Faces- Boys

Here is my entry into the boys category for ihearfaces. This is the brother of the little girls I always post. He has a very forced, chessy smile and is hyper aware of the camera, so he is not my best photography practice. Check out the other entries at iheartfaces.com!!

We Picture This- Before and After

Here is my entry into this week's We Picture This theme, before and after...

Before...




AFter...




I edited in pse 6.0. I sharpened it and increased the birghtness, contrast, and saturation. I also individually selected her eyes and did the same type of editing and also feathered them (the pioneer woman's eye editing advice). To convert to black and white, I just used convert to black adn white and then adjust the brightness, contrast, and also adjust with the color levels. I also cropped and removed some spots from her face with the spot healing tool. Nothing too fancy!!

I Heart Faces- Blurb Photo Book Contest

Here is my entry into the I Heart Faces Blurb Photo Book Contest!! I have loved this photo since I took it. I love her eyes, her hair framing her face, and the texture of her jacket. This photo won 5th place in the "no flash" week at I Heart Faces and I'm thankful for this week we can use photos we've previously submitted. I would love some constructive feedback on the black and white conversion.


"I am submitting this photo into the www.iheartfaces.com Blurb Book photo contest. I am granting I ♥ Faces permission to use my photo in a printed version of a book for commercial use and possibly advertising of a photo book on both the Blurb and I ♥ Faces web sites."
