I Heart Faces - Scenic Black and White
I Heart Faces - Paper
The theme this week for I Heart Faces is paper. I looked through my folders for quite a while to find one! It wasn't easy folks! Finally I thought of cupcakes and knew where to go! This was such a fun couple and great wedding to shoot!
On another note, thanks for all the nice comments last week, having the winning photo was something I never thought would happen, it really made my week! Thanks to all!

I Heart Faces - Pink Week
I just loved the happy expression on her face and the way the sunbeams came down around her! To see more pink pics, go to http://www.iheartfaces.com/.
Fixit Friday
Original Photo:
My edit: I really wanted to bring out the yellow in the trees and pump up the colors too. I added a cool texture and a quote about kites. I can't tell if it's a kite or not that he has in his hand, but it looks like one to me! Plus, I liked the quote!
You know I love a barn
Yesterday our family took a trip out to Route 66. Our plan was to eat at Pops then head over to Parkhurst Pumpkin Patch. Well, the waiting time at Pops was an hour long, so we ate at Subway, went to the pumpkin patch and then on our way home stopped at the historic Round Barn at Arcadia. It is such a cool place! I've driven by it lots of times but never stopped to go inside. Here's what the outside looks like. It's red, but I thought the picture looked cooler turned this antique style of black and white.
This is what the ceiling looked like on the second floor of the barn. It's huge by the way! And awesome.
I stole this shot of Vivian when she stopped running in circles for about a half a minute. I just love the expression on her face. She's so pretty, if I do say so!
So, if you live in the area, go out and check out the old red barn, you wont regret it!
I Heart Faces - In the orchard
It was harder for me to decide this week because I have a ton of orchard pics to choose from. There's a huge peach orchard in my hometown that also has a pumpkin patch and hayride in the fall. So I have peach pictures and pumpkin pictures, but I decided on pumpkins because it's fall! This is a picture of my dad, who drives the tractor for the hayride at the orchard, surrounded by his five granddaughters. My two girls are the pale ones! Anyway, dad really loves doing the hayrides and all the school groups are always excited to see him when they pull up. They call him "the nice farmer". I love it!

My photo edit on Pioneer Woman!
PW's latest photo contest has to do with editing. I spend most of my days editing, so I was up to the challenge! Pioneer Woman supplied the photo of Pesky Tim on a horse and told us to give it our best edits and she would choose some of her favorites. Well, I got a text from Dara tonight telling me that my photo made it on P Dub's website again. It was really exciting to see it on there, no only in the section but on the front page of the site! Go to www.thepioneerwoman.com to check it out. Here's a screen shot!
My Photo in Edmond Monthly!
Here's how my Glendalough Cemetary picture looks in this month's edition of Edmond Monthly! They send me three copies in the mail the other day, and I was so excited to see it! It's on the back inside page of the magazine. Go pick one up today!
Chris & Lia Engagement Session
This was such a fun photoshoot at a beautiful vineyard in Norman. They're getting married in Mexico and have invited me to do their photos for my first destination wedding in December! I'm so excited! Check out some of my favorite pics of their session.
I Heart Faces - Smirk!
As you can see, the theme for this week's contest at I Heart Faces is "smirk". I knew immediately which folder to go to! Heather's bridal session had the perfect smirk! What's really amazing is that she still looks so beautiful and adorable while smirking, and I just love the dimple!
Head over to http://www.iheartfaces.com/ to see more smirks! Just don't smirk while you're looking at them!
I Heart Faces - Vroom Vroom
It's vehicle week over at I heart faces, so I chose this adorable shot from the OKC photowalk. I love the old fashioned cars the best! To see more cars, trucks and more go to http://www.iheartfaces.com/.
Fixit Friday
I really liked the picture this week for Fixit Friday, and so did my almost three year old daughter who saw it up on my computer screen. I almost talked her into letting me put braided pigtails in her hair because of it but she backed out in the end. Oh well, I almost had her!
Here is the sooc shot, which is pretty good already, just needs a couple of touch ups!
I just needed some boosting, some contrast and a little extra attention on the eyes. I used PW's actions, Fresh & Colorful, Sharpen This, and Bring on the Eyes.
Then I decided to do a second one, I thought that PW's Seventies action would be great with her coloring. It's definitely my fave PW action but it doesn't look good on everyone. I've been using it for a while and knew it would be great on this precious little girl. I then added an edge burn just to dim it a little.
I Heart Faces - Photojournalistic
The theme for this week is photojournalistic, or telling a story with your photos. I decided to highlight my trip to Ireland last fall. My husband is a musician and had a tour to Ireland and I got to go! How amazing is Ireland! I decided to highlight some of the moodier photos, because some of the days were more damp and dark and well, Irish! Here's some of my favorite shots of Ireland with my hubs playing in the middle!

I Heart Faces - Fixit Friday #68
It's been a while since I've participated in Fixit Friday, but since I didn't have any beach pictures to enter ( living in Oklahoma kind of helped me out with that) I thought I'd enter this week.
Here's the before:
My edited version:
I loved the mood of the photo and the blurring at the bottom of the photo especially but thought it needed to be warmed up and softened too. I also added in a texture to make it have a more vintage feel. I also added in a lens flare, I just think the sky was too bright to not have one!
Heather's Bridal
Oh my goodness, I've been so busy lately! I'm loving it by the way! Here are some bridal pics I did of Heather last month and couldn't wait to show you! She's a married lady now, so it's okay to put these out for the world to see. She was so much fun and had the most beautiful dress ever!
Heather's a costume maker/seamstress and works in the costume shop at the university. She really wanted to do some pics in the shop and when I saw this wall of hats I knew exactly what shot I wanted to get! She was such a trooper and climbed up a big ladder to get up there!
She's kind of fond of climbing things I guess. She climbed this gate at the entrance to a really nice neighborhood in town. With a train like that, you've got to show it off somehow!
