My daughter, the natural model

These are a few pictures of my daughter from our trip down to Savannah. It scares me how naturally she poses without any direction. I mean, look at some of these positions. Some girls spend tons of money to be trained how to do this. Although it does save me money, because having a model living in my house means that I don't have to hire one!

Rule of Thirds: Class Assignment

I finally have my page where I want it and now it is time for the first post. This is also my first class assignment where I used my new camera and I am in LOVE with it! In this assignment, we had to go take a set of three pictures using the rule of thirds (where the frame is broken into nine equal parts by two equally spaced horizontal lines and two equally spaced vertical lines and the subject is placed on one of the lines or intersections) and negative spaces. Then we had to place the three pictures together into one frame in the best possible layout. This is my favorite of the three pictures that I used.
