We went to the pumpkin farm and had a great time.
Tyler loves animals and this llama happened to be out so he was able to pet it.
It was really hard to take pictures because the sun so bright, 1pm.

I know, a little early for Halloween but we needed to see if the costume fit, nope it didn't, too small.
I love this photo of Tyler for 2 reasons. He has a beautiful smile and for the 1st time ever, he is looking at the camera.

very slow shutter speed. I am trying to use Av mode but my lighting is awful since it is in the house.

Mesa Arizona Temple

I have been playing with colors a little bit. I took these pictures in August when I was in Arizona. I have such a great love for the Mesa Temple. There are so many memories there. The memory that sticks out the most is when Brad and I were sealed for time and all eternity there.

I love the silhouette and sun flare.

I have never purposely used props but I decided to today. Katie wasn't the least bit interested in me because the neighbors dogs were barking. She was focused.

I tried Mark's approach of bumping up the contrast and this is the outcome.
Does it need more or less? I thought if I went a little more it was to much.
When I originally cropped the picture, I tried the rule of thirds with the two lines meeting her left eye. This time I cropped her right eye. Can you tell a difference?
What do you think?

Aren't they so cute. They really do like each other once in a while.

A few days ago, Katie fell on the fireplace. She cute her lip and gum open and chipped her two front teeth.
Her eyes say I am so sad mom.
I love that her face is in focus but the rest is blurry.

I tried to merge some photos together. It was kind of fun. Need more practice at placement.
