So, I’ve been on a bit of a quest lately to find out my style of photography. What I’m realizing is I LOVE to capture “real” moments, hence the name Captured Moments by Mel. It’s been right in front of me the whole time. So as I was doing what another photographer, Brooke Snow, suggested, I went looking back through my photos. These beach photos jumped out at me. We went the weekend before school started (this was the first and only time all summer). I asked myself what it was I liked most about these. I had captured the girls enjoying themselves at the beach. “Real” moments with genuine emotion.
Some of these I used both actions and textures, and some I used only actions. I’ll list where both came from at the bottom of this post.
Textures and actions were used on the ones above. Textures were from Jessica Drossin Textures. http://www.jessicadrossintextures.blogspot.com/ and actions from MCP Actions. (Link below)

Mel…these are such gorgeous shots of the girls. Your photography has certainly taken a huge leap forward into artsy. I can tell you have found your soul in these…even the one of the bird. That one’s adorable.
Thanks Geni!! I appreciate that! 🙂 That little guy was soooo cute!
