Happy Birthday Hazel!
I took photos of our little party for Hazel on April 1, but it was kind of a fail. The walls in that house are such a weird color for white balance, it was dark, there are all kinds of different lights, insert more excuses here, etc.
Also, by the time I got there I had no way to brush her hair for photos without traumatizing her or interrupting the party.
So I'm not super happy with anything I took that day but you can see her personality here.
And let's be honest. She got her stringy hair from me. Happy birthday sweetheart!
I can't believe she's 5! (If you didn't know, I'm an old Goodmama fan.)
Low lighting and weird white balances stink. Though I've gotten better at those issues since shooting basketball games. Gymnasiums are light-sucks, I swear. What camera are you using?
@FireMom: I remember! Love goodmama fans! <3
I even took a gray card in there and kept resetting my wb but it was just a fail anyway.
I'm using a Canon 40D. I think this was the 50 1.4. Love that lens. What about you?
Hey I'm back in town, let me know when your schedule is such that we could get together to go over the pictures, thanks!!!
So cute! I want to see Hazel in person!
@Allie: She's even more fun in real life!
Mmmmm that cake is taunting me.
Happy Birthday Hazel! Hope your day was magical!
K, let me get my schedule shaken out and we'll plan it!

Happy Birthday Hazel!!!
My son turned 3 yesterday(the 14th)!!!
I cannot believe she is five. My little Pea just turned four, and she was about three months old when I friended you, so it makes sense but… wow. I know that YOU can't have favorites among your kids but I think that Hazel is mine.
