Black and white theme again!!



we picture {this}


This week I am really going to try to work on getting my camera off of the auto settings. This was my first attempt. I have already learned more today that would have made these pictures even better. I have a LOT to learn, but I'm pretty happy with this for the first time!

She's Doll. Looks like my daughter's pig tails too.
Great shots. I need to do the same with learning more.
Good luck for the contest.

Look at how much hair Presley has now!!!
I think these are great shots! I have been thinking about getting a fancier camera-- I'm still using the easy point and shoot type. I'll have to ask you for some camera advice sometime! :)

I have not seen your pictures in awhile and was shocked at how much Presley has changed! Her pigtails are adorable & Mavery would be jealous! She just made me take a picture today of her in pigtails, will have to get them posted. Presley is really beautiful!
