Nothing like last minute, my daughters friends came over last night needing a picture for gifts. They wanted a Christmas type border and the words & date on it. They are giving them to parents (both sides) & grandparents for gifts in 5x7 size with frames. They bought their own frames. I took the pictures, they picked the one they wanted edited and told me they wanted a Christmas-y border, date and Merry Christmas on it, then promptly left (so the framing & font's were my choice). They are picking up prints today. I forgot to mention, it's a freebie (they paid for an ink cartridge so I could print them at home). So, does it look OK?

eta the picture...

Very creative - nice shot of the couple, and I particularly like the layersing. When you put this into the frame it will be a "frame in a frame in a frame" look. Nice job.

Thanks Penny! I've been doubting my ability to take a decent picture lately.

I noticed the same thing. It's like she's glowing, but the guy is sitting in the shadows.

Well Kelli, I for one think it's a fantastic photo you have done a great job on such short notice. They should be very grateful to you and your talents as a photographer.

If I were to add anything it would be a Santa and his sleigh along with the reindeer oh and some snow flakes and maybe Frosty the snowman and then finish it off with the one and only Grinch.

MAX!

Did you mention to her that as a 'thank you' for your efforts, she needs to do some modelling for you ?
