Trying Some Sepia Conversions

I'm not usually a big fan of the sepia looks, but I had a request to change this to sepia and I really like it!

















I also tried something I've never tried before until now. This is a sepia conversion with some color added back in from the original color version. I think it gives it a cool acid-washed look. I've tried this with black and white, but never sepia. Thanks for getting me to try something new!

Moss/Brown Family Photos

I had so much fun taking these pictures! Everyone was willing to try anything and everything. The only time we could get everyone together was at 11a.m., so the lighting was pretty harsh, but I think we got tons of great photos. These are a few of my favorites. Hope you like them. I'll get them plus the others to you next week.

Isn't he a doll?! Look at those eyes.





















The whole family:































Happy 30th Anniversary! You two are so sweet.




































They are such a lovely family. They all pose like models without even being told what to do!




















I LOVE black and white photos so I added a few for you.





















































I thought this was so sweet how the boys were holding hands! Use this photo as blackmail when they are arguing as teenagers. (Ha-ha!)
















Another super sweet couple!








































All the grandkids smiling and holding hands! Don't you wish they were always like this?!




















There is a story behind this photo! Their Daddy/Uncle had been trying to get them to smile by standing behind me making bunny ears, hollering squirrel, rabbit, etc. Well, he starts hollering, "SNAKE!" I thought he was joking so I kept taking photos. He was SERIOUS! There was a snake about 4 1/2 feet long that crawled right BETWEEN my feet! I got a picture as it crawled away, but it's pretty blurry because my hands were shaking. (I HATE snakes!!!!) It's a good thing I thought he was joking. It probably would have bit me if I hadn't been standing still.















I wonder what she is thinking.



















I didn't want to leave the baby out of the family photos. :-)

















We also took a side trip to the pumpkin patch.
