Lichtman.

This kid was a trooper.  We did the shoot passed his bedtime and he wanted none of our pictures.  Thanks to some silly songs and some silly people we were still able to get some adorable smiles.  Come see some more of our pictures.

Leaving Pittsburgh

This family is graduating and leaving Pittsburgh this month.  We we able to get these fun family pictures before they left.  The sun was driving me crazy though.  I would set my exposure just right but the sun wanted to play peek-a-boo behind the clouds all morning and completely threw off my exposure. It's the little lessons that I have to learn every day.  Come see some more of our shots.

Some Family Time

We were having beautiful 70 degree weather all week, and then of course, the day of our shoot the temperature dropped down to 50 degrees!  We were freezing.  Especially because the best pictures are taken in the shade where it's the coldest.  We toughed it out and got some good shots anyway.

Amanda and Tim

I woke up the morning we were supposed to do this shoot and noticed the rain clouds looming overhead.  I checked the forecast and it said it was going to rain all day.  I called Amanda to see if she wanted to reschedule, or try to rush out and do the pictures before the rain hit.  She said "Let's do it!" But of course, the rain started on our way out there, came down on us through the whole shoot, stopped 30 minutes later, and it was beautiful the whole rest of the day!  Oh well, we were able to get some cool umbrella shots...










So, I've been realizing that when I load my pictures into Picasa and my blog they look different than they do when I just have them open on my computer.  On my computer they look perfect and smooth and when I put them online they look choppy and rough.  I've never noticed it before, but this shoot is the worst.  They look so nice on my computer and I want to cry when I look at them on here.  Any suggestions what I'm doing wrong?

Don't judge me based on these pictures.  I may have to start looking into alternative ways to display my pictures.  If you want to see the web album anyway, here it is.
