I Heart Faces: Best Face Photo from January 2011

I know I shared this photo on here recently, but it's still my favorite "face" photo for the month! If you want to see something new check out my photography blogsite Kellie Parry Photography for some rock star photos of Miss Gracie.

I know I haven't updated this blog in awhile but I thought I'd share some photos from tonight's impromptu photo session. I was scouting out a location for a maternity session this weekend and found this little gem around the block from us. I will DEFINITELY be coming back to this spot in the future! I had my camera with me to check out the lighting and I bribed my kids to get out of the red wagon to let me take photos of them with the promise of chicken nuggets and chocolate milk. Surprisingly Grace was my more willing model and I got a few nice ones of her with real Grace smiles and not cheesy ones!

These were all taken with my new (to me!) 1.4 50mm which I am LOVING! Gorgeous color and bokeh and it's super sharp. These are all edited in Lightroom and then I used a Paint the Moon freebie action. I've been doing a lot of dual editing these days, it takes a bit longer with the extra step but I'm pretty happy with the results.
