Swapping and Editing Heads

I am still only using (or attempting to use) the very basics of Photoshop. I wish I could learn more of the in depth stuff but I just don't know where to start or what should teach me, a class, youtube, a book, I just don't know. 

Anyway I had a friend send me some shots of her kids and she didn't like the way her little girl turned out. So, she sent me some alternates for the little gal.

This is what I ended with. Did it work? Hope so. I am not confident in my work but I do think it was better than what I started with. Wanna see what I started with? I know if you see it then you won't be able to look at the edited pictures the same. Oh well. Here it goes....

These are the two pictures I started with

Did I pull it off? Or was it just a sorry attempt?

Preggers

She is half way done being pregnant and aren't they a perfect couple. I cannot wait to take pictures when their little dude arrives. But for now I will practice with more and more maternity shots.... 

A good laugh

I needed a good laugh yesterday so I wasted my time and swapped some faces on the M family. It was hilarious and I am still laughing about it!! Don't look to close or else you will see that I didn't blend anything but tell me that isn't funny! I love it! 

Swapped faces

Original

I heart this cute family

Aren't they adorable!? Getting five kids and parents to look at the camera all at the same time is much easier said than done.

Picture Frame Photos

Tell me these are not fetchin' cute?! I dare ya. I love them! The possibilities are endless with this simply large picture frame! 

It does help that they were pretty photogenic but seriously love this frame and the shots we got. Can we try again in a field of tall weeds and in the snow. I love these pics they seriously turned out great and I am pleasantly surprised! 

Dancing Queen

This is my first attempt at changing the background. I don't love it because I feel like it looks to un-natural. Does it? That is what I hate about editing. It gets to the point where I can't tell if I am making it look better or worse.

Here is the shot straight out of the camera. 

Makes me smile

This little stinker makes me smile. Can't you just tell he is up to something he probably shouldn't be up to!
