Nel gruppo di Clique International, The Clique, abbiamo un nuovo favoloso challenge : il mese di Aprile è dedicato al “Re-Focusing”, vi daremo cioè tanti nuovi spunti per scattare tante foto e trovare modi nuovi di documentare i vostri ricordi. Il primo prompt è “Great Candids” e vi invita a non mettere in posa i vostri soggetti, ma bensì a cercare di coglierli di sorpresa mentre giocano, lavorano, per fotografare la loro vera essenza. Il mio layout per questo prompt è un layout shaker, con una taschina in tulle bianco ripiena di paillettes e farfalle e circondata da una ghirlanda di farfalle e rametti ritagliati da una meravigliosa patterned. Le foto che ho scelto sono state scattate l’altro giorno al parco, quando Isabella ha iniziato ad abbracciare tutti gli alberi che vedeva
. Ho usato il kit “nature lover”, che è davvero stupendo!! Trovate altri dettagli nel blog Clique, e come sempre vi aspetto nel gruppo per giocare con noi e vincere un favoloso premio!

Today I have a new layout for you, to introduce April Clique Kits challenge; April month is all about “Re-Focusing”, we are sharing with you some tips to use photography in different ways to document our memories. The first prompt is “Great Candids”: let’s try to not pose our subject, to shoot pictures while they are working, or playing, from different angles, in a sequence. I chose this prompt because, having a 2 years old daughter, is so funny to capture her real essence by shooting pictures while she is having fun, exploring… Like these I took at a park near our home: she started hugging all the trees, so I grabbed my phone and took a sequence of pictures capturing my sweet little tree hugger! I was really, really inspired by “Nature Lover” kit, that features Prima Marketing Inc. collection, especially by the butterfly paper and the packs of butterflies ephemera and sequins included in the kit! I decided to make a shaker layout! I fussy cut all the butterflies and golden branches and arranged them as a wreath. I used a piece of tulle to create a shaker layout: the tulle is “the pocket” for my sequins and butterflies ephemera, sorrounded by the wreath. You can find more details on Clique blog. I hope you will play with us this month in The Clique FB group!
