1. Skin smoothing action: CoffeeShop Powder Room 2
2. Sharpen/Defog from Florabella
3. Duplicate Layer - blending mode - erase from skin
4. Dodge & Burn to taste

5. Florabella - LUXE - Mademoiselle at a very low opacity - erased off the skin

I Heart Faces {HEART}

It's the month of Love!!  This week's challenge over at I Heart Faces is HEART. 

It's fun when you stop to think about how you can tell someone you love them.  A few weeks ago, I had a fun boudoir session with a group of girls.  One of them brought along this sweet sign.  I love the effect we achieved with the lights and the dept of field.

Don't forget to head over and check out some of the other really sweet ways to incorporate HEARTS into your pictures!  I HEART FACES


Much Love

IHeartFaces - Orange

I haven't always been faithful at posting entries with I Heart Faces...however, a dear friend of mine, Dana Suggs relit the fire for their community.  So...while I wait for the next workshop to come around, maybe I'll join in and see if they love me???

This week's theme is Orange.  This sweet boy is from a session this time last year.  He is so precious and was amazed by the ladybug he found.  The whole group (5 families) dressed in Texas Longhorn Orange.  It was a great session split between two days.

Enjoy!  Head over and check out some of the other fabulous entries for this week.  iheartfaces
