Slideshow Final- that actually works!!

1- My first ultrasound ever, at 6 weeks. I used the Plaster filter on it, and I loved that tiny blob of Addison became her own little continent.
2- A later ultrasound, and I used the Plastic Wrap filter. It felt like it managed to bring alive all these little veins in a growing baby.
3- Cropped, desaturated, and framed belly picture with my husbands and my hands on her!
4- Desaturated, and text layer with a cute poem about motherhood put over it.
5- Cropped, and lots of clone stamp used to just try to make the picture a bit cleaner; removed some of the background, and I also used the heal tool on my face just a little bit. Addison was less than 10 minutes old!
6- Daddy meeting Addison for the first real time…. Cropped, desaturated, and the red enhanced.
7- Addison home for about 30 minutes for the first time, my dog meeting her for the first time, giving her kisses. This picture has a filter on it, called Accented Edges. It felt like it took a special moment for me, and immortalized it.
8- First time swimming at 2 months. I used the dodge tool here to fix the white in the top corner, the clone tool to clean up her little leg, and cropped the photo as well.
9- Addison smiling some of her first real smiles. I used the Glowing Edges filter on this, and it seemed to really bring her alive.
10- Cropped, made black and white, and then the eraser tool used to bring the color of her pj’s out.
11- First Christmas! Cropped, and a lot of the dodge and burn tools to bring out some of the colors.
12- Her shirt cleaned up, and lots of blurring and airbrushing to make this picture sort of silly.
13- Dodge and burn tools used, and the clone stamp used to make the whole curtain red, instead of seeing the inside of the curtain
14- Addisons first birthday! Layers, to give her a birthday background. Shes cut out of the original, and a light eraser used on the edges to feather, and a text layer as well. The layer with Addison in it was also made a bit opaque.
15- Addison running away from her pool this summer. Cropped. Clone stamp used to clean up the grass, and some contrast adjustments.

Portrait

My husband, out in the woods!!! Completely unedited, believe it or not! I love all of the greens in the picture- they really make all of the browns in his hair and eyes pop out.
