Mother's day super special

4/23/2018

I bet you love your mother like nothing else. Mothers are miraculous women who through the toughest challenges they are able to overcome with a smile on their face and love in their hearts. They sacrifice so much for our well being, our growth, our health, our education, our future, our spirituality and so much more. So we celebrate a special day, Mother's day.
And you want to do something special and different for her. Something that you don't see people giving as gifts. I think a special photo of her will truly make her heart soar, eyes twinkle, smile from ear to ear, and followed by a huge hug for you.....

Photography tips by kat

You're here because you are enjoying your DSLR camera and taking photos of your family but perhaps when you look at your photos something seems off.

The trick to making a great magically enhanced photo art is to start with good and eye candy photography.

photo call ad for brides to retouch to host on katphotomagic.com

Greetings to the brides new and seasoned. I want to help make your dream come true. When I got married, it all happened so fast that I didn't have an idea on what I wanted for a wedding and how I wanted my photos to come out. I realized that I should have done my homework when it came to photography. I was really disappointed in my wedding photos. I do remember how I felt during my wedding and the memories but, I can't get past the lack of magic my photos had. If you feel the same about your photos, then I'm glad you found me because I'm here to help you feel so much better with a little magic. Read more to find out how...

Photo tutorial - shooting with the sun behind subject

You're with your family outside during a gorgeous sunset and trying to take a group picture.

The idea that if shooting a subject in front of a sunset would result in really dark subjects. Yes and no.. Here is how I angle myself to capture glorious and magical photos......

Photo Restoration for flood victims

About KAT

My philosophy is that photography should lighten up the heart and the eyes with vibrant color, light and Majesty as memories flood back into the mind and soul.
I'm a stay at home mom of our little girl! I LOVE editing photos, especially meticulous details. I am a clone master. Photo editing has always been my passion since it came to be back in the 1990's. When I'm not editing I take care of my little girl, my husband, follow God and spend time with His people. All while listening to music all the time. ;-) I also enjoy playing the piano, learning to sew, eat Thai food, eating healthy, lifting weights, singing hymns and trying to make my house a home.
