Best Friends

May 15, 2013

Slater had just turned three and a set of twins moved in next door who had just turned five. The three of them clicked right away and have been buds ever since. They lived next door for two years, moved around town a bit and then just recently moved to Mexico. To say we were sad the day they left is an understatement. Slater just clicks with these two and they always have a great time. They came into town for two weeks and we were lucky enough to see them a few times. I love photographing the three of them together. Until September when we get to see them again…

Color Picker

May 9, 2013

I love color and I love photos. I really love photos with all their key colors selected and displayed super pretty. I have a pretty big collection over on my “colors” pinterest board HERE.

Lucky me… I just discovered an action that let’s me easily create these beautiful palettes with my own photos in just a few seconds. LOVE it! The download is here at The Coffee Shop. This definitely won’t be the last post with my personal photos and all their pretty colors.

Instagram Review ~ March and April

May 5, 2013

I missed posting March so here’s our life at a glimpse in March and April. And now that I am using PicTapGo to edit my instagram photos, it’s easier to keep full frames so now it’s not all pretty perfect squares. Sometimes you just need full frame. So in a nutshell, Tucker turned 18, warm early spring weather (it’s super cold today), Camping at Lake Morena, Easter in El Centro, camping at Joshua Tree with Slater’s school friends and families, the zoo with friends from school with Slater, hiking Pine Valley Creek with friends from Slater’s school, baby kitty… (I often am trying to devise ways to give this cat away), field trip to the beach and aquarium, Mexican Fiesta at one of Slater’s classmates house, me and Colleen… not sure where, Slater takes home two trophies at his first karate tournament, and my cinder block garden is planted.

Featured on The Mommarazzi School blog

April 24, 2013

Photography by Alison is featured on the Mommarazzi School blog HERE. So flattered that they would showcase my work on their website. I think the majority of my friends are always trying to get good photos of their kids. The Mommarazzi school offers classes to teach parents (or probably anyone) how to do just that. Such a great idea since so many people are getting DSLR’s. Just because you have a nice camera doesn’t mean you can actually use it with skill;) Be sure to check out their website and everything they offer.
