Mommy's Princess Sequoia

Once again.. I had to take advantage of a photo opp. She is 8 days old today. Her button is about to fall off so i had to take pictures. Although there are no button pictures edited YET.. this is what i have so far.

April, she's so sweet. And she looks like she's very happy and content! It's amazing how much they change in a week. I think Sequoia and Jake both have changed a lot in the past week, but are even cuter than before! How do they do that?!!?

she is too cute she looks like a doll in the pic with the elephant

Too cute! I want to get some more pictures of Jake. They do change that's for sure!

I have wanted to take some pics with a black background, but I just don't have a black blanket or sheet, any suggestions?

She is ADORABLE! And you are GREAT with that camera!

I used black fleece. Its not a very big spread so I cant use it when she gets bigger. I have also a king sized flat sheet that I use for bigger subjects. I opened up all my blinds in my livingroom, draped the fleece over the couch, layed her on the elephant, had a big kid for a spotter in case she rolls, and i snap away with my Nikon D40. I also use photoshop to touch up the photos. The fleece had her dandruff on it and she had a eye boogie. I think she has a blocked tear duct. The key to good pictures is lighting and make sure the camera is in focus. And go from there.

awww, so cute! I love them!! u are giving us some good ideas for pics!!!!!

I actually saw the new slideshow before seeing this thread. Great pictures! She's adorable and keeps getting more so every time you post new pics!

Sequoia- you are such a beautiful girl, and already a pro with the modeling.
Her eyes are so beautiful, April. Great pics thanks for sharing.
Do you have the free photoshop or paid version?

I say "free" lightly because it was "free" just not free. Hmm Well..I stole it off the internet. As well as the code. Maybe it just happened to fall into my computer. I don't recall. Cant prove a thing. I plea innocent.

Really..Its a very hard program to use. I am no way near perfect at it. PS can do so much more then I can or even know how to. I can touch up picutures, swap heads or objects, do cutesy things like make rubix cubes or put nice frames around photos, but i would love to take a class on how to do more. My cousin bought the program and it sits in a drawer. She can not figure out how to use it but has yet to ask me.. if she asked, iw ould help.. so she is out $80.

Aww she is so cute. I need to take some good pictures like that. Izabella is 1 week old today!!!

yeah i know how things can just find there way on the computer. lol i actually have been looking around for a deal like that with no luck yet.

OMG she is so precious!! I could just eat her up!!!

Beautiful pics. Sequioua is absolutely beautiful. I love photoshop too

She is so gorgeous!!! I love her on the big fat elephant!! I really enjoy seeing other ppl's pictures, it gives me more ideas on ways to be creative in taking pics of Sophia---keep em coming!!!

Thanks everyone! I am hoping people start getting creative on here and give me some cute ideas to do as well. I do eventually run out of ideas. So lets get to it ladies! LOL Our babies are coming and growing already! We need to preserve the moments.
