Photojournalism at iheartfaces

I wasn't going to enter a photo this week because with starting college I've been pretty busy, but!!!
 I thought of these photos that I already had and figured it wouldn't take me very long ;D
 So it is a short post but at least I got a collage entered :D 

My adventure with Vala. 
I showed her how to blow dandelions and she thought it was the funnest thing! She picked and blowed all that could be found in the yard and thought she'd try to blow a dandelion that had bloomed, I explained that didn't work and we both had a good laugh :D

The Light Through My Lens (#3)

Hey all, gosh it's been a while! :/ And I can't even make this a very long post :( but I guess the reason's not all bad! I started school this week! :D / :/ I am going to DMACC's Photography Program! :D So as you have guessed my post can't be long cuz I gotta study ;P My boyfriend and I go to the same college :D This is his second year so he showed me around and helped me get to my classes. I've been so stressed with school starting, work starting, homework that I have to do, assignments that have to be done, balancing all that with my time with God, family, Ryan, and friends, chores, ect..... But God has blessed me with an amazing man to encourage me and keep me on the right track (God first and foremost). God knew what He was doing when He put us two together <3 I love how God show's Himself through everything! :D Ahhh okay, I took too long writing this I need to study, write an essay, and work on some photo assignments and teach a piano lesson! Look out college, cuz here I come!


First Day of School

"Beach Fun" at iheartfaces

Well I live in Iowa, and there are a few good lake beaches here, 
but being sick kept me from getting out to take a photo for this week. :( 
But I found one that would work, and it was taken with a point & shoot might I add.


I took this last summer when we went to visit our cousins in California :D
We had tons of fun at the beach!

Fix-It Friday #67


This is my first time doing Fix It Friday,
I had some time on my hands and thought I'd give this weeks a try ;)
This Photo was taken by Dana Suggs, and edited by me.
:D Thanks for the photo Dana!




Okay so here is the original photo

The first thing I did was to fix up the photo:

>>>>sharpened photo
>>>>used my stamp tool to
>fix the paint on flip flops
>fix the scab on her leg
>fix the top of baby dolls head
>fix the strand of hair on forehead
>fix blemishes on arm
>>>> used eye define action
>>>>cropped photo


And this is what I ended up with



Then I edited this photo four different ways



#1
PW Soft & Faded Action, & a vignette with the feather at 100 pixels, and 60%opacity


#2
PW Seventies Action

#3
PW Old West Action


#4
PW Old West Action, converted to B&W (adjusted levels), increased contrast


And those are my Fit It's :D Hope you like them.
