Pumpkin Patch Again

I love taking pictures at the Pumpkin Patch. The girls had pictures at school on Friday so I decided to take them to the Pumpkin Patch all dressed up. It was not easy at first, they were fighting and didn’t like the other one touching them. I asked them to please get along to get these pictures and then we would get some Kettle Corn. I don’t know what it was that I said but they then started running all over posing and competing with each other to find the best place and pose to take a picture. It was so pleasant and we had so much fun. They were adorable. I think Brooke had the most fun at it. She really got into it.

   

I could not get Brooke to sit in the tire like Presley. She said, It’s not comfortable.

 

And the competition  begins!

     

They did finally get their Kettle Corn. I should have bought them both a big bag after the little photo session. They were Awesome!

I took all these pictures in manual. So excited I am learning how to take better pictures. The lighting was hard in some spots but still love all of them. I would love it if someone could teach me how to show Presley not to squint.

 

 

 

Halloween Fun

We went to the Halloween Party put on by the youth at the church last night. Presley was an Ice Princess and Brooke was a Queen.
I bought these costumes at Divine Consign and wanted to make sure they were worn. They both won in the costume contest. Presley won for Prettiest Costume and Brooke for Best Girl Costume. They were both so excited.


My little Ice Princess that doesn’t like to smile.

My silly Queen
 
Candy and Face Painting, the Ice Princess was pretty happy.

Brooke loving on Ella.

Waiting for the results of the Costume Contest.

Fun with Meredith. Such a sweet girl and the girls adore her.

Brooke waited for a long time so Sam could paint her face.  Another sweet girl that the girls look up to.


It was a fun night. We ate pizza, played games, face painting, crafts, and even went trick or treating. We walked around the court yard and knocked on doors and the youth would open the doors with huge smiles and hand the children candy. It tugged at my heart to see the kids having so much fun with the bigger kids. Love watching it all take place.
These pictures were shot on manual and were straight out of the camera. So happy with the results of my pictures after my photography class. Looking forward to my photoshop class next week.

Pumpkin Faces

I came home from my retreat and quickly had to take pictures of the girls pumpkin faces they made at school on Friday, before the flowers on top wilted any more. I think they fit each daughters personality. I took these pictures on manual but had to use the flash to get the color perfect but love
how they turned out. I think we need to name them and set them next to Willa the Witch.
