That I want to learn more about photography. So far I have done pretty well. They’re not business quality photo’s but I have been finding my way around my camera, and I’m slowly getting better and learning new things.
Last night I wanted to try out the portrait feature of my camera and try to get one of those clear in the front/blurry in the back shots. So I did. And this is what I came out with…
Aren’t they cute? Those are my two newest Pinky‘s btw.
I have been taking a lot of these lately, to tell you the truth. Mainly because they’re so fucking awesome!! I just wish I knew how to do those black and white ones like I see some people do. I don’t think my camera does that. It might. I have yet to check DPS.
I also saw something on a blog that submitted an entry to WFMW. She did a little “review” on this thing called a Light Scoop. It’s a little mirror thing that you stick on your camera (where the flash is) and it sends the light from the flash to the ceiling (where it lights up the area) instead of into your subjects face so you get a nice clear shot instead of that yucky whited out shit. You can read more about it here. I wanted one. But the hubby took a look at it ’cause I think he wanted it too and uhm… it doesn’t go on my camera. :*( I was a sad panda about that.
But that’s what I think I’m gonna dabble in for a while (aside from my giveaway site). I have been wanted to get away from the internet and I think this’ll do just that. I also really need to get out and get a life. :tongue: A friend of mine suggested mommy and me groups but I’m not very social. I’d rather use the alone time (since the boy is at school all day) to do something for me since after they get home, my time goes to my husband and son.
So expect more pics from me. I’ll have to get me one of those Flickr things though. We’ll see.
I’ve just been and purchased one of those flash thingys. It looked like an awesome deal.
Thanks for the comment on my blog, your blog is lovely – very cute!
I want a Light Scoop too and am going to be seriously disappointed if it won’t fit on my camera. I guess I should check before getting my hopes up.
I think the picture turned out really great!
And how do you do that dreamy blurry effect? Is it a PS-action? :)
I used Photoshop and copied the image into another layer. Then I did Gausian Blur + Soft Light.
Hi Jenny! *Waves back* Welcome welcome haha thanks for dropping by! I’m looking forward for your return haha
But I feel like my blog is kind of unpro compared to yours! XP You have these cool smileys to choose from <3 and tabs etc…you did it yourself? 
But I would love to know more about photography too! But I'm afraid if I buy a DSLR …I might not use it that often….thus wasting my money
Yep did it all myself
And your blog is fine :) I don’t really care what a blog looks like as long as the posts are awesome 
Trust me there’s better designers then me out there. I just like to keep things simple.
OMFG…i seriously need to get me some of those dolls. They are sooooo cute!!! And the photo turned out great!! <3D
Great shot, Jenny! I suck at taking pics…lol!
Sorry to hear about your Disney experience. *cries* Hope you’re able to go there one day and enjoy yourself!
What a cute picture! Thanks for stopping by my blog.
Those are really cute, and I like the picture, too. I have no photographic skill whatsoever!
(Your layout is adorable!)
Great photo. I think learning more about photography is a great aspiration! Good luck with it. Those dolls are also really adorable.
PS: I added you to my blogroll. :)
I was really into photography a couple of years ago but when my little camera broke I just lost my buzz for it. My husband has this amazing camera that can do all these fancy things but for some reason it all baffles me lol!
I think photography is a great hobby. Good luck with it :)
Great photo! The dolls look amazing…I wish I had more time for photography… Keep clicking away!
I’ve been wanting to get more into photography too, but my camera sucks and I can’t really afford a new one right now.
The image looks great, btw.
I love the pic and the dolls! Keep it up! I for one would love to learn more about photography but can’t find time yet. Hopefully in the nearest future… Good luck!
Very cool picture. Is that a picture of your camera? You’d think camera’s would have the flash pointing up, or at least a directional flash.
no that’s not mine.
that’s just the image of the scoop I took off their website.
Great photo, fingers crossed for learning photography :)
Happy Saturday Sharefest! I’ve actually been trying to use my camera a lot more too… That pictures looks awesome. :-)
Great post. Adoreable blog. Thanks for the info about the “light scoop.” My oldest starts blinking before you even take a picture with flash because it bothers here eyes. Super annoying if you want to get a cute picture. Another question…how do you say “Poupee Girl?”
Stopping by from SITS.
PS…I’m tribeless hobo too :)
That’s a nice photo! :) Those photos with blurry backgrounds are pretty cool.
stopping by from SITS – I think you took a wonderful pic! glad to have found your blog :)
[...] told you I’d be getting a new model in for more photo’s didn’t I? Isn’t she [...]
omigosh, these are soo cute! where do you get them?
Great photo! Love lightscoop! Wish it would fit on my camera. I’ll have to see if manually holding a small mirror by the flash would work. Love the dolls you have. They are so cute!
