Learning from Leah

My sister in law, Leah (Leah Davis Photography), was kind enough to let me tag along on a photo shoot for week old baby Nora.  I enjoyed it and was sad when I had to leave early.  She taught me some great tricks and I plan to use them soon practicing on my own kids.  Next, she’s going to teach me what she does for editing in Photoshop.  Little kids are so photogenic.

Makes you want to have another baby, just so you can take pictures of it. Right?

That's just what I was thinking Christi.

Jeff these are really good and I excited to teach you photoshop...we can clone out those little bumps on her face and smooth her skin a little...you have good exposure though...and your composition is really good....I think that first one has a bit of a smile too....cute!

Uuuhhhhh.... I'll have to comment on another baby later. I'm excited to learn some photoshop though. Then maybe I could just Photoshop a new baby in our current family pictures :)
