One Day My Prince Will Come

I cant believe I will be first this week. Here is my daughter who loves to dress up as a princess. She thinks that to get married means you dance with your prince. PS she dressed herself like this in 90 degree weather.

Shot on my porch, cropped and sharpened colors in Picasa. I just found out how to get the details on the picture so here they are. 40mm f/2.8 ISO 80 no flash the porch provided all the light I needed. CC as always, give it to me I can take it!

What a cutie! If you'd pulled her a little farther away from the wall it'd have blurred nicely! I do like you lighting in this!

She's adorable. YOu got a nice close up of her cute face. Good job.

Candace said...

She is absolutely beautiful, Blake. I think you did a great job getting a sharp image this time! And April's right, if she were pulled out from the wall just a tad more, the background would have gotten the blurred effect.

I really like her idea of marriage. So sweet. :)

Darling picture of a darling girl!! Along with what April and Candace said, getting down to her level just a tad more so she didn't have the smaller body effect might have made it even better. That said, it really is a great picture! You should be proud!

Love your take on this! She is so cute, man, that smile! My only CC would be to try framing her so she isn't right in the center of the picture. Maybe play around with the rule of thirds. Seriously though, great shot!

Thanks ladies for the CC and comments!

Mindy - you dont like the big head little body shot LOL. Normally I do get on the same level but when I did I couldnt get the crown to show very well so I decided to do this angle.

Melanie said...

Every princess deserves a prince...and she is just that. what a cutie!

Mindy said...

Blake, you're so right! It is about the crown in this shot. :) Good job!

So cute. I am still working on the perfect blur as well... I also like really saturated pictures. (And I think it seems to be a trend right now.) So when I edit mine, I am always bumping the saturation way up. I like the shot though!

B-Blogit said...

I sharpened it but didnt do saturation. Forgot about that thanks Corynn.

What a cutie! I love the full and natural smile! I agree that a blurred background would have made her stand out more. Great idea!
