My recreations

Thought I would share something I enjoy doing for fun. I love to take favorite photos of everyday stuff and turn them into pieces I treasure by transforming them into works of art. I will show you the original photo and then what I turned it into after some time of playing around with it. This is something I really enjoy doing. I hope you appreciate it as well.

The first photo is of my two great-nieces. Jennie and Nicole. They are two adorable lil girls who have the sweetest spirits. Its always fun watching what children will do when you point the camera at them. These two decided to engage in a hug. Just goes to show how perfectly loving they are.

The next photograph was taken at a friends Halloween party. This lil lady is soo precious. Her name is Bella. She was intrigued by a butterfly that was part of my costume and how could I deny her when she asked if she could have my butterfly. After I attached the butterfly to her finger, she began to dance it through the air with grace just as a real butterfly would do. I grabbed my camera and captured the photo. It blurred a bit and was frustrated because I knew it would be such a cute photo. Then I played around with it and created a photo that would soon adorn my walls. She is a beautiful child and I was happy that I could turn such a sweet moment her and I shared into something I can now cherish and remember each time I look at the photo.

This just goes to show how I can take a photo that appears to be something ok and turn it into something spectacular. I love doing this stuff..its so much fun! Hope you enjoy these as much as I do.

About Me

My photo
Louisville, Kentucky, United States
Married and mother of four beautiful children. My life is as busy as a circus. I am always on the go with my family but my photography is as much part of me as my family. Its may passion and joy. I love to put smiles on everyones faces and my photography is an outlet as well as a fix for my own happiness. I love my children and they were the ones who pulled the photographer out of me. As most young mothers we are constantly snapping a camera to capture those many first moments. But friends and family saw something in my photos that made them believe in my ability to create such works of beauty that led me here today. To God I give many thanks for my talents and my blessings. He is the one who enables me to do what I do and he will always be first in my life. I just pray that my camera will always capture joy not sadness and my works will always be appreciated and admired by those who reflect in my lens.
