About Me

My photo
the things that make my world go round... (besides photography) my sweet baby girl who makes me proud, my handsome husband who makes me smile, my *girl* friends who make me laugh, my mom who is always supportive, my dad who's always there to make sure i don't make the "wrong" decision, my little brother that is such a good uncle, all the rest of my family and friends that are just so darn amazing!, my pretty little bmw that i just adore, sex and the city, trashy magazines, lunch with jessi, massages with the amazing doriane, flashy rings, VC Andrew's books, my bay window and gigantic bathtub, our mean little kitten, my wonderful customers @ tropical rayz (you all know who you are), david cook (heehee), designer bags, shooting the sh** with jarjar about photog, blue summer skys and rainy spring days, the fresh chrispness of an october morning. yep! that's what makes my life so wonderful....

Before & After:
this is fun.... i like before and afters b/c you really see the PS work that is involved in the
whole photography process. its not just take the picture then you are done (for me anyway)
thats just the beginning... then you get to create the "art" of your photography. most of the time i just do a little sharpening, color enhancing, ect... but sometimes an image requires a little more.
in this one not only did i do my special color enhancing trick, but i took out the two people in the background... and the tire swing. whatcha think? most ppl probably wouldnt even have noticed it either way huh??? haha well i do, so... :)
