What a beautiful and dreamy photo. I am devouring your techniques and advice. I wish I was every bit the expert you are! I am LOUSY at editing having never learned how. I only have photoshop elements 3. I am only a novice but I have such passion for photography but not sure how to direct it or edit. Did you learn all these techniques from a book? Or a class? It would be so much appreciated if you could email me and let me know how or where you learned these amazing techniques. Blessings
