Lifestyle Photography – Photoshop Actions – This Is Our Life Project – Week Six Wrap Up
Posted on February 11, 2013

I can’t believe our sixth week is already wrapping up for the project! Below you will find our beautiful group of featured images from the This Is Our Life photo project for Week Six. The theme was Good Morning … morning routines, the hustle and bustle and the reconnecting as a family after a long night’s sleep is always so unique to every family and so fun to peek in on everyone’s mornings and what makes them special!
For those wanting to find out more details or if you are just interested in lifestyle photography in general and want some helpful tips and examples, please check out the very informative post on lifestyle photography and This Is Our Life.
For my sixth week in the This Is Our Life project I captured my girls snuggling and being in silly in bed as is our morning tradition – they go to bed laughing and always wake up all smiles.
Edited with Luminosity actions – Lavish BW, Film Haze and Rich Deep Matte.
Shot with a Nikon 24mm 1.4G lens at ISO 2000 (it was really dark in the room still), f1.4, 1/200 second.

Before we get to the featured images of the week, here is the prompt for week seven of the This Is Our Life project (Negative Space … it’s a Positive!). Using negative space (also known as white space) effectively in your image can turn a so-so composition into one that really stands out and is unique. You can use it to convey emotion, be artistic, give emphasis to your subject and so much more! See my post here all about using negative space with lots of examples and tips.

Lifestyle Photography – Photoshop Actions – This Is Our Life Project – Week Five Wrap Up
Posted on February 4, 2013

And here is our beautiful group of images from the This Is Our Life photo project for Week Five. The theme was Finding the Light … as most photographers know, light can make or break a photo and turn a ho-hum image into something spectacular. The images submitted this past week were shining examples of just how gorgeous light transforms a photo!

For my fifth week in the This Is Our Life project I captured a tiny sliver of early morning sunshine lighting up my little girl’s face as she was lost gazing at the birds flying by our window.
Edited with Luminosity actions – Lavish BW, Film Haze and Rich Deep Matte. Shot with a Nikon 85mm 1.4G lens at ISO 800, f1.4, 1/200 second.

Before we get to the featured images of the week, here is the prompt for week six of the This Is Our Life project (Good Morning). Whatever comes to mind when you think of your mornings … something in your day to day routine, the thing that you must have to start your day out right or the little details that always bring smiles in the mornings.
