Joyful Laughter

This picture was taking downtown Boise at The Grove one Saturday morning during the Farmers Market. This little girl was dancing and giggling and having so much fun! (along with several other kids). There is nothing better than listening to a childs joy and laughter!

Through the Viewfinder

A popular photo technique is Through The Viewfinder. It makes the photo look like you’re viewing through the Viewfinder of an old vintage TLR Twin lens camera, with possible dust specs, lint, or lens blur. There is always that black old film look around the photo. There are alot of free downloads out there to choose from. Be brave! Give it a try. I also added a few brush strokes to mine. This class I'm taking From Jessica Sprague lasts two weeks. Be prepared to see more samples..

This is a photo of the Paris casino in Las Vegas..

Textures

If you don' already know... I like the old grungy look... and textures really make a photo look that way... Especially if you use old film textures, or coffee stains, or scratchy grunge textures. I found a few old textile textures, too! So much fun! You have to be careful on portraits? They have to be pretty subtle on a pretty face... I've used textures before but I've never layered them... Don't they look awesome

OH! I did photo masks too! You clip your photo to a mask and get these fun textured edges.
