Picture Day

Today was picture day at our house.
I started taking an online photography class on Monday. It’s through Squam Art Workshops and is being taught by Thea Coughlin. I’m learning so much!
I’ve spent the past 3 days applying what I’ve learned and practicing, practicing, practicing. Today, with Kassy acting as stylist, the girls got to be my models. We have another session planned for Bella and Maya in the morning. Maya was being pretty silly and a little impatient today, and we ran out of good light by the time it was Bella’s turn this afternoon. That’s not to say I had been working terribly long. “Good” light disappears up here around 3:30 and the ISO starts creeping up. Why risk the graininess when you can start again the next day with perfect lighting and crisp pictures? Anyway, to say I am pleased with how they turned out would be a major understatement. I am totally in love with these sweet little faces. If you can’t tell, they’re a little in love with the camera.
