Bring Your Instagram Photos to Life w/ Ink361.com *Giveaway*

Disclosure

Y’all know I love taking photos. Although I am getting better I still have the tendency to leave my photos in the camera, in my phone or stuck in Instagram world. Remember that commercial where the woman went to take a photo and there wasn’t enough room on her memory card and the events started talking like I hope she doesn’t delete me? No? okay. Well it happened.

Anywho.

With such technology at our hands and some of us capturing a large part of our and our children’s activities on Instagram its only logical to have a medium through which to print these images out and Ink361.com gives you the ability.

Photography Wordless Wednesday

{kinda} Wordless Wednesday

Hi!

This week I didn’t pick up my camera much because we are in the throes of taking the last steps towards moving. I promise an update or vlog later in the week. Anywho, since I hadn’t taken any pictures I went through my photos to see if I could find a photo that I took exactly one year ago today, and wouldn’t you know I found one.

No doubt my photography has come miles from here but I realized when I found this photo that the beauty really isn’t in taking the most amazing photos its capturing memories. It is capturing those moments that you are able to freeze in time. The moral of the story is pick up your camera, capture memories and store them. At the end of  day it won’t matter how good the photo was, the memory will be enough!

Happy Wednesday!!

We’ve have been continuing with our routine of staying close to home but we’ve been taking little outings here and there.

We went bowling

My son is playing football this fall. I know what I said last year, I’ll save the deets on this revelation for another post. Conditioning has started so we spent an evening at the football field.

I did manage to sneak out alone and get in a photo session with Tiffini and her family. Tiffini is the founder of Tastemaker Magazine. I had a great time getting some shots of her and her family. Here are two of my favorites from the shoot.

I’m thinking about starting up a fun linky where I would issue some sort of challenge and every week we would show off our shots in a link up. Would you participate? You could use your cell phone, point and shoot, film, whatever camera you wanted to. What do you think?

4 Tips on How To Take Great Photos Without a DSLR

Seeing someone with a high powered camera can do something to our psyche. One of which may cause you to tuck your little seemingly unimportant point and shoot into your pocket or purse out of frustration, and maybe even envy.

Fret not.

Today I am going to give you some tips on how to get a good photo with your point and shoot. To further prove my point all photos in this post were taken with my Samsung, under $200 point and shoot that I reviewed here.
