I posted this photo on our Kiwi Krossings missionary blog, but thought I'd post it here as well, since I rarely post family photos:
Here we are ready to go to a fancy
dress ball put on by our stake. Missionaries, however, rarely bring
ball gowns on a mission (haha), so the best we could do was for me to
wear a black suit and for Jeff to wear what he wears every day,
(although I thought the kiwi tie was a nice touch). I haven't taken
many photos of us together so I thought I'd take a quick one before our
guests, (fellow missionary couples), came to dinner prior to the
dance.
For those of you interested: I set
my camera on a tripod, (with a diffuser on my flash to soften the
light), and we stood in front of a plain gray wall. I tweaked the
white balance to make the color 'warmer' and then I added a textured
background so it wasn't quite so boring. A few other tweaks and in 2-3
minutes I was done. I kinda like the color wash look.

Karen, a wonderful portrait of you two!
Nice to see you!
Karen this is a fantastic photo of both of you and I also like the color wash look. I smiled when I seen this photo, I thought of the one you posted where you were in your sweat pants and a nice top on and Jeff was in shorts or something like that with is suit jacket and tie... I LOVED that one!
Have a fantastic week!
You are both so good looking! Thanks for sharing this photo. I'll bet it will be among your most treasured memories over time.
Very nice. Another to add to your great collection.
