Shoot & Edit week 3: Good Night

Every night was have almost the same routine. We get a bath (well every other night for that) then we get in out pjs, we pick out a book and we sit in the rocking chair in Addison's room and read her book and rock for 15 minutes before it is time to get zipped up in her sleep blanket and go to bed.  Nothing says good night to me more than this. Especially now that she is more interested in the books and has learned to turn the pages.



SOOC:
Canon Rebel XTi with EFS 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 II
f/3.5     1/50    ISO 800

I was suppose to have my new lens (50mm f/1.8) by now, but the company I ordered it from sent me an email telling me it was shipped and then when I looked on their website the day it was suppose to be delivered it had been changed to back ordered and I had not gotten notification. So I canceled that order and ordered it directly from the manufacturer so it should be here this week. Annoyed does not even describe it, I want my lens!! Patience is not one of my best virtues. I just thought I would throw that in to explain why the picture is so dark. Plus it is night and Addison's room is really dark and we don't have a good lamp in there, (it helps her sleep). Otherwise I really like the picture, it defiantly captures our night.

I love reading with the kids before bed, though I can't wait for the day they stop ripping the books out of my hands and running away with them! Ha! Thank you for sharing!

We had almost the exact same routine when my kids were little. Same book too.

I'm looking forward to seeing what you do with the darkness. The lighting in my kids' rooms is dark too.

@Mrs MissyThanks!

@KarlyLuckily she can't run away with them yet but she does take them away and try to eat them!

@jillconyersYeah, I am hoping Ashley can help me with that, I just got a new lens that should help some with the darkness in my pictures!
