This week’s theme for my 52 week project is A New Perspective. This week, I loaded up my four year old and we went scouting for a new location. We went out at 10am while his brother was at school and just played around a few new spots. I am not sure if I found the perfect location for a photoshoot, but I did find the windiest locations. I do not like to bribe my kids to take photos, but I actually felt so bad about making him stand in the coldest, windiest spots on earth (and smile about it) that I had to treat him to McDonald’s after our adventure.
Because I tend to be a creature of habit and shoot at the same few spots, this is my new perspective!

The theme this week is shadows. I typically avoid shadows in my portraits, so it was fun to play with some different lighting (natural light of course) and get some shadows on my subjects face. I think it definitely adds a mysterious, timeless feel to this basic portrait of my son. As much as I miss the warm weather and beautiful colors of the outdoors this time of year–I do love simple, indoor portraits. I think they really focus in on the subject’s personality and eyes.

The theme for week 4 of the 52 week project I am participating in is “hands”. I had a hard time narrowing down my recent hand photos, but in the end, a photo of my new nephew in his daddy’s hands was my pick!

For the 52 week project I am participating in, the theme for week three is Imagine. Although I have countless images of my boys using their imaginations to play around the house, I had to share this image from our trip to San Diego. Something about the vastness of the ocean, really makes one imagine all the possibility out in the world!

I can’t believe it is already the second week of the New Year! We just got back from Tucson, Arizona on Saturday, and so today feels like my New Year. I am busy archiving, editing, and ordering prints from 2011 and looking forward to capturing new and old clients in 2012. For the 52 week project I am participating in, the theme is Belly Laughs! Here is a capture from one of my Tucson sessions–mom tickled Emily and got a big laugh! Can’t wait to share the rest of this session!

Every year, I like to reflect a little on the past and then set some goals for the future! Last year was my first year in business as a photographer. Owning my own business has been more overwhelming (and rewarding) than I ever thought possible. This year was definitely filled with some highs and lows, and I learned many new things about photography, business, and myself. I am joining a 52 week project this year, to continue to challenge myself and grow. This week’s theme is mirrors. I thought this image from our car trip from Wyoming to San Diego perfectly reflects the journey I embarked on last year. I am excited to see where the road takes me this one.
This is a blog hop, please check out the other wonderful images!

Here we are at week 35 of the 52 week challenge that I am sharing with talented photographers from around the world! This week’s theme is glitter, sparkle, or shine. When I think of sparkle, I think of rhinestones and “bling”, which my closet is lacking (I blame it on being a mom of only boys). So I grabbed a quick snap of a friend’s pretty “bling” she wore for a special night out!
Check out more bling from Houston, Texas photographer Linsey Stuckey!

I took an accidental little break on my weekly project this summer, so for those who do not remember I am part of a group of amazing photographers who have decided to post images that represent a different theme each week. After you view my image, click on the link below and see what the others have to share! Past themes have been movement, favorite flower, and out of focus.
This week’s theme is connection: what connection in your life do you adore?
Next up from NJ, The Bugsmom Mommy with an adorable photo for Connection.

This post is part of the 52 week challenge I have joined with other photographers from around the world! After you look at my image, follow the links and see what everyone else has up this week! We are half way through this project, and some of my favorite themes so far have been movement, Memorial Day, and nature.
This week’s theme is tree. Here is my son climbing a tree, the same tree that myself and all my cousins climbed every summer when we would visit our grandparent’s ranch in Wyoming.
Now head on to see what Lynn of Bugsmom Photography in NJ has posted!

This has been a week full of movement! My boys are both signed up for a week long soccer camp, along with some of their best friends. In addition, James finished his last week of baseball, and I am so proud of their team for winning second place in the championship game! Plus, we are trying to squeeze in all the other summertime activities…movies with friends, water fights with neighbors, and a few photo sessions in this gorgeous warm weather.
I had planned to try a few things with a blurry, moving soccer ball at the end of soccer camp…but we got rained out! So I am just going to post a few of the images I took at soccer camp yesterday…
Now see what the talented Lucy, Adelaide Photographer, has posted this week!
