my lovely pixie

I rather fell in love with some of the photos that the my friend Hannah posted a few days ago, and decided that I needed to do a similar shoot with a certain little sister of mine.

So, today Megan sweetly agreed to become a pixie and pose for me.
A few things I learned from the experience?

1.  I'm not (not, not, not, not, not) meant to be a make-up artist.  It must have taken me about an hour to get her eyes the way they are.  And the way they are is far from amazing.

 2.  Next time I do this, I probably shouldn't put her make-up outside.  The result?  Shortly into the session I have a hot, sweaty, and rather cranky gal on my hands.  *Sigh...*
and 3.  Megan is quite the little pixie.  I am absolutely loving some of these...

which is your favourite?

  4. Emily,

    I have a Canon Rebel T2i. I also use the "eye brighten" Picnik Premium effect, which works like magic;)

    Thank you for the sweet comments, lovelies!
