Before&After Cowboy

beforeeverett

He is such a cute little man! bigeyedcowboy2In the first picture I liked it but wanted his eyes to stand out. So I cropped it slightly to make sure he was the focus of the picture. Then I lightened it, boosted the contrast and sharpened it a little bit to get the eyes to pop.

I did all of this on a free photo editing software called The Gimp. It is not as user friendly as Photoshop but it is FREE! Also it is open source so it is constantly being improved.

My favorite part is that it is free.

Because I am a cheapskate.

Cowboy Mini Shoot ~Carson, Andrew&Everett

Last but not least from my mini cowboy shoot!

I have had the privilege to take pictures of this first little man a couple times and I always find it very rewarding! He is so shy, I love getting good pictures of really shy little ones!

The last two boys are cousins and so much fun! The littlest is a little ham and made every picture cute(it was REALLY hard cutting any!). The older one took a little bit to warm up but when he did he was hilarious! I kept thinking wow I am getting this nice natural pose and he does not even know it. Then he would look at me and say “can I see that one, the one where I am laying my head in my hands?” Apparently he is brilliant at looking natural in front of the camera. My ego will get over the blow eventually.
