First Ever Self Portrait
I don’t DARE post the original ‘before’ version!
I was setting up and testing the lights for my next portrait of Fred, and had to use myself as a temporary stand in.
The pose was nice and I liked the lighting, so I decided to tackle the impossible.
This is how I would have liked to look…even 20 years ago.
Needless to say, I don’t actually look anything like this.
Thanks, Photoshop!

My husband Fred & I own Zion Cycles, a bicycle shop in Springdale, Utah - just outside of Zion National Park.
I live, eat, breath, sleep & dream about Photoshop. Sick...I know.
