say cheese!

mummy has a new camera!!!!! I have absolutely no idea what I'm doing and see a short course on the horizon but I am in love! I am now the proud owner of an olympus e-620 and since my old camera was an olympus it does make it a bit easier to find my way around. I tried to get a crash course from dad this morning but there is only so much you can learn over coffee and banana bread....so I've just played around with the art filters....grainy for the twins

check out the cheeks!

and for keira I played around with the pin hole art filter which I really love

this is actually my birthday present for later this month thanks to my generous hubby and parents....thank youuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!

thinking

keira is such a natural offering plenty of poses except when she'd stick her white unicorn up in front of her face....I've spared you those shots

ooh hooray! How exciting. I'll enjoy watching you learn. I just have a little digital and do what I can with it but the idea of something new with lots of possibilities is thrilling. Your kids are beautiful no matter what camera you use though!

A new camera must make all the difference, those shots look great Corrie! You do have gorgeous models to photograph though! Hmmm maybe I can try and get a new camera for my birthday as I only use a little digital one too.
