Last Of The Christmas Angel Set

smoke665 · Nov 20, 2017

Few things, I'm not happy about on this one, but the look of joy she had playing in the snow (even if it was just make believe) made it all work I think. Hard for someone who's never seen snow, to understand how exciting it can be. Anyhow I got a lot of good ones in the set that made Mom & Dad and the Grandmas happy, so I guess I'm done with the set. Time to move on to the next shoot.

It is such a thrill to see them beaming with joy, isn't it?

It's jolly and fun in a greeting card sort of way. It works well, nice job!

It all started with the hat, a $5 find from a vintage clothing store. As soon as my wife showed me the hat the ideas came in a flood. Had a lot of fun finding the wardrobe and building the set. Lot of worth but the time with little Miss was worth it.

Thank you Derrel. Took your advice on the final picks, brought up the shadows.

Who swept up the "snow" afterwards?

That's charming, and I wonder if the edits did the trick, it looks good.

I'd think about where you're putting the watermark, although maybe it isn't on the one you gave the family. I think it'd be better if it was on the opposite lower corner. If it's just for online posting I'd think about how you want to watermark for display.

I love this. Very inspirational. You are such a good papa, it is so evident!

Surprisingly it didn't go everywhere as we were careful about not opening doors.

@vintagesnaps LR automatically applies a preset watermark when it publishes to Flickr. Most times it doesn't get changed either from laziness or forgetfulness on my part. As to edits, there weren't many.
