I figured it was time to take my own portraits. It’s not an easy feat by any stretch of the imagination! It’s difficult to focus properly since I don’t have myself on which to focus! I solved this problem by using a light stand where I would be (great advice from Rachel! Thanks!) The other problem is getting the right angle! I even tried to get Rich to take a few. I finally found one that seems to work. I may try again when I have a decent hair day! That was my other issue. I went to the hair salon and finally gave in to the idea that my hair is no longer straight. Ever since I had Isabella, my hair has progressively become curly. I tried to deny it, but my hairstylist and I realized it’s time to stop fighting a losing battle!


Aww…you look so pretty! Nice to “meet” you! I think you found a great angle…it really flatters you!
Thanks! It took a lot of outtakes to get the right angle! lol
You look beautiful!! I have yet to attempt a self portrait, you may have just given me the inspiration to try, lol.
Nice job! i haven’t been brave enough to tackle the self-portrait yet!
It’s best to try it out yourself. That way, you know what is your best angle! Then when someone wants to take your picture, you know exactly how to pose! LOL
