Really proud of myself

I love photoshop. I just love it. There is something so satisfying about taking a not-so-perfect picture and fixing it all up. Or even taking a good picture and just making it look better or cooler. I am about to flat out brag about how proud I am of this.

Over Christmas break, we decided that it would be fun to take a picture of all the grandkids for my mom. Why we thought this would be fun is beyond me. Madison is the oldest-she just turned 6. Connor is next, at barely 3. Justin is almost 3 and Abby is 2.5. Kayla is almost 1, Logan is 9 months, and Max is 3 months. What an endeavor! We considered going to a studio but then decided to just have my brother take them. We set up the lighting (aka opened the windows), set the backdrop (a white sheet), and put the kids down. Here are a few of the outtakes from the great photo adventure.

After over 100 pictures, we had one good one. That’s right. One. I present to you the unedited version of The Picture.

And here is my edited version. I am so proud of myself! (You should really click on it. The thumbnail is looking a little grainy to me.)
