I stink at self portraits. Really. I do. But I DO love heels and jeans- though I seldom have the opportunity to wear them now. I'm April, I have two boys (2.5 and 9mo) and a fabulous husband. We're currently living in Jersey while my husband attends law school. I love photography and I have a children's portrait business (aprilfphotography.com) which I'm trying to revive due to our recent move- which in the current economy is not really happening. I'm really hoping this challenge jumpstarts my creativity.

Just another pretty face

Fresh perspective. Your shoes are really cute. Where'd you get them?
I too love those shoes!!! I'm a total shoe freak, and YES, they BELONG with the perfect pair of jeans!!!!! I love the black and white... i think I'll have to play around with that (if i can figure it out... I'm new!)
CUTE SHOES!!! I love heels too. Great picture!
I love jeans and heels! seriously it's my going out outfit!
Way cute! Nice to meet you!
I have always loved the look of heels with pants...but I haven't ever felt I could pull it off. I'm super short, and I just feel like it looks odd on me...probably my wide hips...
GREAT take on a "portrait" of ones self. Sometimes the best ones, and the ones that show our personality rather than our face. I'd love to see you burn in your shoes a little more, to make them stand out a little more, just to see the effect it causes to the pic. sometimes that's all it takes to make a picture POP.
ooooh...April....DARN YOU! :) JK!! Great take on the assignment, though now we will only know you by a pair of super cute heels! :)
Thanks Shanda- I always forget how helpful vignetting is and need to use it more. I can post a face shot if you like, Rachel. But I pretty much look like H.S. only fatter :)
haha! April, you're funny!!! I love your take on this though--don't get me wrong! You have always been really cute--so don't discount that fact!!!
I have been really tempted to do a similar photo. But my shoes aren't nearly as cute!!
Thank you April! I've wondered how to solve that problem so that I don't have to use photoshop on my backgrounds. My teacher just told me the same thing this week, ha ha. Thanks so much, I LOVE having people leave helpful comments so I can learn to improve.
Love this pic. The stairs make a fun background!
I can't wait to get "professional advice" from you. :0)
