Growing up with my dad as a photographer, I love canvas photos. I think it’s wonderful that a picture you’ve taken can be blown up and put on canvas to look like artwork you might see in a museum. It’s the perfect way to turn a cherished memory into a beautiful keepsake. Recently I had [...]
My dad has recently retired and would love to turn his passion for photography into a successful business. Needless to say, over the years he’s taken tens of thousands of photos. A good percentage of them are of our family, including the grandkids. That’s why a couple of years ago when he had a technical [...]
Question: When does a Gila Monster look corn on the cob? Answer: When seen through the eyes of a four-year-old looking at Curious Critters by David FitzSimmons. And I have to admit he is right. Mr. FitzSimmons took wonderful, up close photographs of 25 creatures of the wild including: mammals, insects, amphibians, and birds. Each animal is photographed [...]
I wrote earlier on about the fascinating experiment Samsung did throughout the month of June. They put four friends in an Airstream bus and had them travel across the country, documenting their trip and the people they met with a Samsung SH100 camera. I thought this was an incredible way to see the country and [...]
Samsung is currently running a fun promotion called the Coast to Coast Photo Post. A group of four friends are traveling in an Airstream across the country from Los Angeles to New York City on a month-long road trip. While on the trip, they are snapping photos with the SH100 of all the interesting people [...]
My daughter recently received a digital camera for her birthday. So I was happy to have a chance to review Photography for Kids!: A Fun Guide to Digital Photography by Michael Ebert & Sandra Abend. The book begins with technical concepts that are easy for children to understand. It covers Zoom, Focus, Flash, and Macro [...]
Growing up with a father who is a photography enthusiast, I have to say it has rubbed off on me. I love taking, reviewing, editing, and displaying photographs. I’ve always loved the look of Canvas Pictures, but have found them to be too pricey and not a fit for our budget. Thankfully, there’s now a [...]
As an avid photographer, who aspires to turn my hobby into a business once I retire, I have more than one camera. I often find myself juggling my multiple cameras, my Flip cam, my laptop for work, and my cellphone. Having all of these devices is wonderful for capturing my grandkids on the spur of [...]
Mother’s Day gift ideas are always a little tough. There are the standard flowers, candy, and cards. Gifts that are quick and easy, but usually don’t have a personal touch. That’s where CVS Photo Books can help. I adore making photo books and giving them as gifts. Mother’s Day is the perfect opportunity to put [...]
I’m addicted to photo books. Many moms scrapbook as a hobby, but I prefer creating photo books. They are not only keepsakes for our family, but I love giving them as gifts too. I made my first photo books for our niece and nephew’s 1st birthdays. I spent so much time on them: picking out [...]
Travel. It’s a big part of our lives here in the 2 Wired 2 Tired household. Since I’m originally from Michigan, most of my side of the family lives there and we head up there as often as we can. We also enjoy taking weekend trips once a month or so and, when possible, a [...]
I love how quickly and easily toddlers and preschoolers absorb information. Kora & Logan enjoy watching Dora, Diego, and Handy Manny and have picked up quite a bit of Spanish from these shows – so much so they’ve been able to teach Tired Dad Dave and I a couple of words and phrases. I’ve been [...]
