Not only has another weekend flown by but yet another month as well.
Good Morning March!
This past weekend I decided I was going to take my own advice (from the post I wrote called The Wedding Is Over, Now What?)
I tried to simply enjoy my weekend with family and not get on the computer/ phone. Well I tried anyway. The phone is kinda hard but I did stay off the computer.
Until this morning I thought it was all working out great until I got this lovely ERROR on my computer.
Great.... Another technical difficulty day.
But my magnificent husband walked me through some steps and it is working like a champ.
So now onto today's post--
Today I am going to share with you a Photography TIP from Open Light Studio's

March Tip
Using the Sun
When you are outside with soft lighting, have your child look up at you. The sun will light their eyes and face giving a beautiful glow. Your child should not be looking at the sun (squinting), but at you. If your child is looking down, their face is often in the shadow. Another trick is to take some photos with the sun directly behind your child. This trick will show sunbeams in your photo, or if it is dark enough, your child will be silhouetted.

I think this tip is good but you have to be careful because you don't want a washed out or overexposed photo! BUT...really there are no true rules to Art, right :)
