This is a special week for the Love Your Shot! | Link-Up, we’ve sprung a theme on you this time! We want you to show us “your favorite faces”. To help us choose the winner…oh yes, I said winner…we’ve asked a couple of photographers to help us out. You may know them well. But you’ll have to click on over to this week’s link-up to find out more. How’s that for leaving you hangin’!
My entry this week is not only my “favorite face” but he is my favorite person, too! This is my husband, Steve. He’s sweet. He’s thoughtful. And he’s a total goof, who never fails to make me laugh (you may remember the fishing photo I posted a few weeks ago, nuff said). But most of all, he’s my world. I love you, Steve!
I shot this photo last night as the sun was going down. Steve and I decided to take advantage of the cooler air, so we went for a walk. Of course, I grabbed my camera. Steve’s getting used to the idea of my camera going everywhere with me, so he didn’t think anything of it. But I had different plans…
I needed a photo for our link-up. So, in steps a bit of trickery. You see, for this photo, Steve had no idea the camera was pointed at him…he thought I was shooting the landscape behind him. Well, the cat’s out of the bag now…sorry Steve…
This brings me to my tip this week…never rule out the benefit of a little trickeration from time to time. Because hey, sometimes it just has to be done!
