Easters on it's way, and ya'll know what that means...hehe.
So yesterday Asa and I attended an egg hunt and potluck lunch at a local park with our moms group. It was a great couple hours and I got some cute shots of some of the kiddos, but I haven't shared them with the moms yet, so I won't be posting any without permission. But since my little man looked so cute we did a quicky Easter shoot when we got home. I had the bunny ears stashed in with my photography equipment, just some props that I had bought before we got married in hopes to be taking kiddie pics someday. Just never thought they'd be my kiddie pics...haha.
Hope everyone has a wonderful Easter weekend!
It takes great concentration to lay eggs.

Just some fun egg shots.



He wasn't actually mad, just making blow noises, but the shot cracks me up. Don't anger the Easter Bunny man!
I think this last one is what some might call "The Money Shot", perfectly adorable!

I sooo love your posts!! What kind of lighting do you use? I can't for the life of me get enough and have been trying to decide whether I want a set of lights or if a speedlight would work....I'd love your input if you have time :O)
Almost everything I do is natural lighting. Except that last group of shots cuz it was a dark day and I needed the flash. We have some sort of big light but I have NO clue how to set it up so I have only used it a couple times when Jeff can take care of it. I am lucky that we have a large sliding door and 5 windows that surround that on the main living room wall. (Sucks in the winter, tooo cold and hot as heck in the summer) LOL.
I took these real quick with the basic automatic settings and for the most part if needed I tweak the levels in photoshop. These ones needed the tweaking! I also find that the diffused glow can add some lighting punch. I did use the diffused glow filter but not at 100%, I just lowered the arrow until I liked the look. I also created a second layer(first was the diffused glow)and did a soft light at around 30% I think.
I snap A LOT of shots cuz he moves so much and I would say at least half were slightly out of focus from movement. Proper lighting would help that. But so would using correct manual setting I'm sure. I need to practice more manual, but it can sometimes be easy to let auto slide for too reasons, nap time is fast approaching and I want to avoid the crankies, and photoshop can work wonders on mediocre shots...LOL.
what a sweet lil' whrabit! i love his eyebrows...he is so expressive.
those are all great pics! He is such a doll. I love how you can tell he was really interacting with the eggs. Give him kisses for me!

You know how I know you're gay? Asa has started calling you Aunty Dusten McGaynerd.
