31(squared) - Lessons Learned

Lesson #1 in self-taken shots: make sure you actually set your timer.


Lesson #2: make sure you actually check the framing.


Lesson #3 (this one's more of a guideline...): if your dolphin mood ring happens to match the exact color of your house, take a picture!





Here's some more outfit shots from the weekend:

  1. Haha. Good tips! I should tell Kyle, my photographer-husband. Cameras don't have brains, so you can't blame them when the subject is chopped out of the frame. Husbands...well...I expect better. lol My fave outfit is the taupe one with the red skirt. It just looks so bright and happy against the snowy ground and bare trees.
