I took a camera class to learn how to use my camera and did not retain anything and can't read my notes, so that was a waste of money BUT one of my blogger friends posted an awesome tutorial the other day that I'm planning to try out as soon as I get a free moment: http://runninglawyer.blogspot.com/2013/07/going-beyond-point-click-part-2.htmlSarah Baumhttp://www.the-baum-squad.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9148861890356659177.post-79954494983789342052013-07-30T10:39:43.194-04:002013-07-30T10:39:43.194-04:00Sarah here (Lilly's Mom), do not feel bad abou...Sarah here (Lilly's Mom), do not feel bad about this in the least! We photoshopped our Christmas card photo this year, because I wanted both Lilly and the dog in it, and neither of the two were ever looking at the camera at the same time. I got some good ones of each of them individually, so my husband just found a handy dandy app and we merged two photos together so that both were looking and voila! Your girls are so precious. Lilly LOVES them and talks about Ellie all the time! Anyway, just playing catch up today but love reading your blog. Keep up the great work!Sarah Baumhttp://www.the-baum-squad.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9148861890356659177.post-6477300675335527422013-07-12T00:54:22.185-04:002013-07-12T00:54:22.185-04:00YAY!!!

Scary I know! But if you turn it to manual then turn your shutter speed way up...and then fix the ISO to where it's not washed out or super dark you'll be fine! I just got done with my cat cafe shoot where my shutter speed was set to 1/640 to 1/1600 for the action shots. The ISO was turned way up as well due to the weird lighting. Remember, the faster your shutter speed, the more stop action your photos will be!Amandahttp://www.livinginanotherlanguage.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9148861890356659177.post-19388830249656841672013-07-10T13:10:21.297-04:002013-07-10T13:10:21.297-04:00I LOVE THIS IDEA!!!

But I guess my photoshop addiction will be handy for future photoshoot face swaps :)<br /><br />My husband actually does bribe her with candy. If I leave them alone, I always come home to a toddler who has consumed her body wait in candy.

Know any good tutorials for getting to know your Nikon? There are so many pictures that I take that would be fabulous (and unposed - my favorite) if only they weren't all blurry. <br /><br />Also, my girls get LOTS of squeezes! I just can't resist squeezing those chubby checks every day :)Quinnhttp://www.KimchiSweetTea.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9148861890356659177.post-15931090428337731972013-07-10T11:28:29.396-04:002013-07-10T11:28:29.396-04:00This is the cutest thing!!
