WOW, I love this, Paola!!! Exceptional work on this, my friend!!! Too cute!!! #5518829paola A. Jofre February 20, 2008
Wow!! thank you so much everyone :) I'm really glad that you like this one. I have struggled with this one because of the photo of my daughter ( resolutiong issues :) ). I took this shot when she was around two and I had a not so hot camera. I had to work on her to make her as clear as the other images in the piece. Because it was taking forever I strayed from it numerous times out of frustration :) This piece has 10 images. The poster in the background I made with other shots I had of her in the same outfit. For the overall look I used mainly two filters. Currently I am now working on my fourth vaude image, this time I will be using a current shot so my workflow will be less frustrating :) Once again thank you everyone !! :)#5520947

Wonderful image Paola.. all your hard work and ps skills has paid off ~ well done! #5522997Jodie Goodison February 20, 2008
very cool..I'd love a tutorial. Do you sell any of the elements used? Would love to do this..very well done. :) #5524421paola A. Jofre February 21, 2008
Thank you Very much Erika, Susie and Jodie!! :) I think I walked away from this one at least 5 times. Everytime I opened it up I kept doubting my daughters image,but i'm glad I stuck with it. Ireland loves this piece, she did however wonder why I did not put in a dog like her brothers. :) Maybe next time.Jodie, Some of the elments I create in ps. Sometimes if I have too I buy images. Like the floor. When the warmer weather comes I will be venturing out to photograph inside of abandoned houses for floors and walls. This way I am using only my images.
The response to share my technique has been wonderful and I am now in the process of making an instructional DVD. :)
