WW: LeSueur Family Shoot

You may remember my beach pics from a couple weeks ago. Just before our exodus out of town to Hilton Head Island I did a quick shoot for my sister and her six kids. Being from the desert, she wanted something that would represent South Carolina and we happened on this property and even managed to get permission from the owner. I may be a little bit biased, but I think they are stinkin adorable! I so enjoyed my time with them!

Just click on the image below to grab your very own Rounded Collage Template! I've loved it for showcasing my Photo Shoots, but it would be perfect for just about anything. Enjoy. Photobucket

If you would like to book a photo shoot with me in the Columbia, SC area just email me at callmelish(at)gmail(dot)com.

Before I close I wanted to mention that after my "About" Post last week, I was contacted by Kohl's. They wanted all my readers to have 10% off through Aug 23rd at Kohl's online. You can use the code BLOGIT10 and stack your savings with one other department specific code as well. Just in time for school shopping! Sa-weet!

Thanks so much for the kind words last week and your continued support. I appreciate it from the bottom of my heart. We all deal with our own frustrations and insecurities and it's taken me several years to finally take the plunge and write an About Page. I wish I could get back to each and every one of you, but unfortunately there is just not enough of me these days.

This is Wordless Wednesday, but being me I couldn't keep it wordless, so Not So Wordless or Wordful posts are always welcome here! You can grab my button in my sidebar if you'd like, but it's not required to participate. Come join the fun and make some new friends!

Just grab a photo and link up below! That's it! And if you'd like to connect with other WW participants, click HERE or one of the thumbnails below. (These are just a few of my favs.)

    Happy Wordless Wednesday!!

    Oh! And have you heard about #PROJECTlipstick yet?! It's a fun social network event happening THIS week, it started Monday! It was inspired from the rut that so many of us girls can get in with the same makeup everyday, and a desire to change it up! So girls post Instagram pics with the hashtag #PROJECTlipstick, and can even share on Twitter with the same hashtag and Facebook by tagging http://www.facebook.com/freshmommy, to have fun, encourage each other, share beauty inspiration and have the chance to win some great prizes!

    We'd LOVE to have you join in... and share with your friends!

  17. Great pictures, as usual!!! I was in Greenville, SC last week and I will return soon. I may go to Columbia during that week, as we have a big customer in there. Who knows, maybe I can get to meet you and finally learn -if only by exposure- how to take a decent picture! :-)

  40. You sister doesn't look like she's had one child let alone, six but perhaps that's what it takes to burn off enough calories to stay slim, and kids do keep you young. Beautiful family!

  46. Hey there - loved your post so much - it's s-t-u-n-n-i-n-g. I downloaded your 3x3 template and headed out into the garden to shoot my favourite flowers. I have Photoshop CS5.1, but I'm a real novice (only one online course completed so far), and I'm really frustrating myself trying to use your template. I KNOW it should be really straightforward... I have all my 9 pictures ready, cropped into squares, open in photoshop, with your template open and layer 1 selected.... and then I just can't get any further (on the verge of tears! I'm such a Photoshop fool!). Each time I drag a picture into layer 1, it creates a new layer (layer 10) over the top so I lose the round corners. I'd be so grateful if you could help me get my pictures into the template. Thank you thank you thank you! I'll check back here later, or you can leave a msg on my blog to let me know. xxx

    1. Hey Little Macaroon. So glad you snagged my template. It's really quite simple to clip photos into these masks. You'll be amazed how easy it is. You need to make sure your photo is directly above the mask. Either click on the mask first then drag the photo so it places it above it or you can drag it in the layers panel (on the right) so that it is directly above the mask. Then press alt and left click with the mouse in the layers panel between the additional layer and the mask layer to clip it into place; opt key for mac. The photo will take on the shape of the mask. For further help check out this tutorial (disregard steps 1-3) > http://www.projectalicia.com/2012/05/diy-how-to-fake-polaroids.html. In another post I shared a little about clipping masks and even shared a link to a great video tutorial I found > http://www.projectalicia.com/2011/08/freebie-collage-template.html Let me know if these help. If not, I'm happy to walk you through it. Good luck!
