Welcome

Happy Halloween! Today is the day I enjoy a family ritual with my children--we carve pumpkins together. I look forward to this activity every year as we scoop out the pumpkin seeds to create a canvas for our wonderful creations. I take lots of pictures while we get messy, but the most breathtaking part is when we light the candles and set the jack-o-lanterns on our front porch. The best way to photograph these burning beauties is with no lights on and no flash. Set your camera on a tripod or an object that won't move, then carefully snap away. Soon you too will have illuminating photos to remember your Halloween.

Happy Scrapping!

Designing with Fall Photos

A chill in the air and a change in nature’s colors are sure signals that Fall has arrived at last! It’s time to put on the galoshes and head outdoors in search of fun, fancy, great photo opportunities! There is so much more to Fall than roly-poly orange pumpkins and falling leaves. You can capture some true elements of the Fall season with your camera, if you just try a different point of view.
