More to come soon, I just couldn't resist posting this sneek peak.

Where have you been, you say?

I know that I have been incredibly absent!  I had surgery, recovered, went to DC to visit my sister, attended the AMAZING Savvy Sisterhood Workshop on the Waterfront and recently have done a number of sessions that I should have posted on my blog!  So no excuses, I'm back to blogging!

Last one

This session was one of my all time favorites and I just had to post one more.

Here's a sneak peek for a really sweet girl.

Fix-it-Friday

Once again, I decided to try my hand at the Fix-it-Friday...

The mom who submitted this photo was a little unhappy with the uneven exposure of the baby's face and she also did not like all of the clutter in the background. I adjusted the exposure on the face, removed the clutter from the background, and because she reminded me of the Gerber baby, I decided to give the whole photo a vintage wash. What do you think?

This is the straight out of the camera shot:


And here is my version:

Fix-It Friday

I have a photographer friend who participates in this websites "fix-it-friday" every week.

She inspired me to give it a try, and here are the results.


So this was texture week. The only instructions were that we should include some type of texture in the photo. I actually used two of Nichole V's worn textures in my edited version. I really wanted to focus on bringing up the background to give the photo some context and color, since the original was so white. What do you think?

I'm Back!

This past Holiday season was incredibly busy, with lots to do, pictures to take & so much fun! It is one of my New Year's Resolutions to be a better blogger, and so in keeping with this resolution and since the month of January is almost over (where does this time go??) here is the first of hopefully many more and much more frequent posts to come!

Holiday Mini Sessions!

All of my regular sessions are booked until the second half of January. But I do have some mini session still available, spots are filling quickly so call or email me if you are interested in booking one. 801-831-6515. destrylynnphoto@gmail.com
