On to my outfit! YEAH skirt and no tights weather! Fingers crossed for more of this coming our way! BUT I had challenges with my photos today. Can someone help. LIKE PETE. The sun at midday is not so good for photos. I had to lighten these ones up quite abit since there were alot of shadows. I played with standing with my back to the sun with fill flash, sun to the side, fun coming at my front. I stood in the shade. Nothing seemed to work very well today.
Question of the day: whats the photography trick for taking outdoor portrait photos in midday light?
Back to work for me.. and then I have my run workout tonight. Toodle doo ladies and gents. Love ya and leaving ya for now. xoxo J
I wish i possessed the knowledge of how to deal with mid day sun, I am actually struggling right now trying to edit mid day pics. In other news, you look amazing as usual. Love your belt :)
ReplyDeleteHey..Your eyes are soooo blue in that second photo! Love it! What'a flounce skirt?
ReplyDeleteI can't help with the photography question, but I can tell you that I love your outfit and love that you put your earrings on the tripod!! I didn't eat Easter candy either and wasn't even tempted!!
ReplyDeleteI'm not very good with photos. I tend to stand in a shaded spot in my yard, and do the best I can. 74 bars is pretty dang excessive. Is he preparing for a natural disaster? Um your legs are hot hot hot. I don't mean that in a creepy way but dang girl you have GREAT calves.
ReplyDeleteMy Heart Blogged
Why the shade of course! My spot of choice has been under the four trees that surround my driveway, I overexpose a few stops and go from there.
ReplyDeleteYay for no tights! I hope you never have to wear them again! (until October).
Chic on the Cheap
In lieu of Pete I would recommend standing under some trees. They diffuse the light in the same way that clouds do. And if you're looking into the sun, close your eyes until the moment before the shutter fires - stops you squinting.
ReplyDeleteLove the pattern on your skirt.
Great pattern on that skirt sister..:)
ReplyDeleteWe all need a Pete...
ReplyDeleteI love that skirt. I think I have the same one but, for some reason, it looks so much better on you... :)
Wouldn't it be great if Pete could travel around and take ALL of our pictures every day? Your fiance's stash of chocolate sounds like the one my father used to keep, under lock & key, in his desk drawer. I like the color scheme in this outfit.
ReplyDelete74 chocolate bars? Oh yeah!! All from the Easter Bunny?? Where was I?
ReplyDeleteLove your outfit, yay for no tights especially since you have great legs!
Blue is definitely your color!
ReplyDeletei am loving your printed skirt. Good on you for not having chocolate.I didnt have any either - just cant deal with the sugary calroie-free stuff. But if its in front of me, I will eat it. So yeah you got it tough i think with 74 bars! But I know you are determined, so you will be just fine :)

*calorie-loaded* i meant haha
ReplyDeleteAs far as chocolate is concerned, I love it, but I can't eat any, because it makes my stomach sick :( ....I can deal with chocolate covered sweets but that's all. No chocolate bars for me. Bitter chocolate is the worst kind (for me). So, I'm with you on this one, even for a different reason. ;)
ReplyDeleteAs far as photography is concerned, I really don't know....BUT if you hadn't said anything I would never had guessed that you had problems with it today! The shots turned out great!
Annnd as far as the outfit is concerned it's GREAT! I love blue on you, you should wear it more often...you look fresh and calm. And the combination with the black & white skirt is very chic. You look awesome.
Have a happy Wednesday dear!!!! Yep, it's already Wednesday in Europe ;)
Congratulations on not eating any chocolate!! I am quite impressed. Although I am a salty fan over sweet any day as well. What an adorable outfit you've got on today. I really love the blue with the black and white. The color pops really well.
ReplyDeleteYour skirt is so fun. I wish I could cut out processed sugar. I'm a sugar fan, so it would nearly be impossible for me. Ugh. If you are what you eat, I'm a big fat chocolate Easter bunny right now. Om nom nom.
ReplyDeleteI can't say anything that has not already been said: 1) Pete, we think you ROCK, 2) Jodi, you have lovely blue eyes, 3) you've got GREAT legs 4) I think the pix are great anyway 5) yippee for no tights and warm sunny weather!
ReplyDeleteI have no clue about photography, but want to learn a lot more. Lovely outfit and these accessory pictures are such a inspiration to me! I love all the pictures!!
