melissa t - Thanks for this blog. I’ve been creating diptychs a different way – via creating a new doc and copying and pasting over. I had to mathematically know the pixel numbers before creating too.

I went through all of your steps up until the last section where you add a border. I have Elements 6 and do not have a stroke feature. :( I also had to improvise in the canvas section.

Bryanna and Spencer hired me for two hours on their wedding day to capture them as they came out of the Boise LDS Temple, the family formals, and a few of Spencer and Bryanna by themselves.  Despite the fact that the day was FREEZING and extremely windy, Spencer and Bryanna were so happy and excited…

Life Thru the Macro: Traditions…

The sweet man that married Nate and I gave us quite a wonderful list of marital advice; I wished that we could have written everything down. One thing in particular has stuck in my mind: he told us that now is the time for us to start writing our own “books”… with our own traditions,…
