My good friend, Melanie asked if I would help her out with a little project she’s working on. She asked if she could use one of the photos I took of her a year and a half ago for a marketing project…. I said sure, but I’d rather just snap a new one!
Looking back at my work a year and a half ago can be painful, but it lets me know how much I’ve grown, changed and improved!

(This is also nearly straight out of the camera…. very little editing!)
wow…. looking at these side by side makes the new one look really BLUE! I will be fixing that when I get home tonight! (see you never stop learning!)
ETA….
Spent a little more time on this photo this morning…. took out some of the blue tone, gave her a little extra lipstick & warmed the photo up a bit…. better?
I was just telling Anna (one of your recent brides) how impressed I've been with your work over the past year. You've really grown a ton – let me know if you're ever in my neck of the woods and want to shoot together. :)
