Eyes that go from blue to green and back again - they have both shades in there to the point I had to put the camera down, come very close and just look into her gorgeous eyes. Are those green or blue I asked? I saw both colors, and the camera picked up both as well. Unreal. Simply stunning.

Meet gorgeous 2 year old Ariel and her beautiful parents. Her Mom is Roshelle (Shauna's sister) who I spent my young years looking up to (being 4 years older was a big difference when I was 11!) and she is even more kind and loving on the inside than she is beautiful on the outside. Jon too. They are such a wonderful family and I was so thrilled they wanted to do some family photos when I was out in CA last month, because look at them!


For you photographers out there, despite what some might assume, I don't overly post-process my images. If I do apply actions to images after general Lightroom color correcting (and certainly not all have actions applied), the actions are always pulled back to somewhere between 15-40% depending on the image. (Actions work by way of adding layers in Photoshop and then adjusting the opacity of those layers.) I like a subtle pop, nothing overly dramatic or too overdone. But these are her real eyes!
