Day 1: Up

Howdy all!

Did you guys catch this over at fat mum slim?

The March Photo Challenge is on and, well, if it involves picture taking...

I.
am.
in.

And I have so much in my archives that would LOVE to be seen by someone other than me so what a great excuse.

Here we go...

Day 1: Up



Catch the prompts and join in...this should be fun!

Theater Head-Shots

Sooooooo behind!
Not that I'm doing anything nowadays as far as photo sessions go.
I don't want to miss a minute with my ever growing children, so until they're all in school I'm thinking this hobby/obsession of mine will just have to be put on into a more permanent hiatus status.
That is as far as people sessions go.
I honestly don't think I could go 1 day without snapping at least 1 photo.

Impossible!

My camera is literally apart of me, like my right arm.

So basically all of my pictures are of the adorableness that is my munchkins, or exciting things that catch my eye the few times I venture out (I loathe winter).

I did however take 1.5 minutes to do some head shots for a dear dear friend and her son.
This lady has done so much to help me.
I recently underwent back surgery and she must have brought us 10 meals, countless cookies and treats, flowers, sat and visited with me on my bed many days to cheer me up, cleaned my home...I can't even remember how many times, did my laundry...
The list goes on in counting the steps on her path to "angel on earth" status.
So when she asked if I could spare 30 seconds to take 1 pic of each of them (no crazy bending for artistic-y shots)...
Please!
It's the LEAST I could do to repay her for all she's done for our family.

Best part...

She tells me beforehand that she's never seen a picture of her that she's liked.
Ever.

Sad.

After I snap the pic, I show it to her,

She loves it.

Sometimes you just have to see yourself how others see you to find true beauty.



And I don't think this guy could ever take a bad picture.

Heroism

Boy Howdy!

I have so many pictures archived, it's almost overwhelming.

Don't let my over abundance of recent pics fool you, I'm still on hiatus from scheduling any shoots.

And to be honest don't know if I'll ever return while my babies are little.

Right now I'm just enjoying every moment with my gorgeous children and photo documenting the amazing things that come across me in every day life.

I'm over obsessed with the old and forgotten.

Stay tuned for more on that.

In the meantime, enjoy some of my favorite recent shots.
