So cool Kelly. I absolutely LOVE #3. Stunning conversion. I really like the high contrast. I do my conversions very similar.

Great job, Kelly. I LOVE #2. My older girls were always into theater, so this brings back memories. I just have snapshots, though, no studio back then.

How fun, and what a great "look" she has!! I love #2 and #3. The costumes are fantastic. Not fond of #4 though, for some reason she looks a lot older in that one. And the shoes were silver...

Thanks for stopping by. She is wanting to major in theater when she graduates. She was the queen in this year's madrigal and I have seen her on stage for the past 6 years. Great voice!

Thanks for all your comments. And yes, Athena, dem shoes were silver! Anybody been to see Wicked? Now that is one awesome musical.

Thanks. On number 2 I turned her into the light to vary the photographs a bit. I do not know if I have one with her turned more towards camera left. The living room is so small that moving lights around is a pain in the buttocks.

Thank you Felix. I am feeling that my results are much more consistent now.

It that the actual color of that backdrop? That color is so so so pretty.

Yep, those are the colors of the backdrops. Get them from SayCheeseBackgrounds.com - Welcome! . On these I did bump up the density just a tad using levels.

I asked her to bend over and place her head in her hands. She struck this pose. At that point, I was taken by the way the light was hitting her. I wanted to adjust her hands, but the expression on her face was more important than hand placement to me at that time. I didn't like her hands, but she has a very hard time relaxing and just giving expressions that are truly her. So, I put up with the gnarled fingers.
