project 52 week 8

Well the Theme this week was "The View From Here". For this one I had so many ideas and couldn't completely decide which one I wanted to use, so I went with one of my first photos from this week.  I just love this little guy, him and his 4 brother make me smile every time I see them.  This was at his brother's birthday party.  I think the view from here, if pretty wonderful.

Pondering the last throw

project 52 week 7

Well I finally got my picture done for this week. I am thinking it is my favorite of the three weeks I have done. The theme this week was "Open your Heart". As soon as I read the them, this is the word that popped in my head, I just had to figure out a way to put it in print.  Adoption is something that God had for our family open our heart to, and we will never ever be the same. Our hearts have gained so much love that we never knew we were capable of having. We are so thankful that this is what He has for us, because how could I ever imagine never seeing those sweet little toes.

Would love to know what you think, and what comes to mind when you hear the phrase "Open your Heart".

What a great way to share your engagement pictures with all of your wedding guests

This is a beautiful treasure you will cherish for years to come, with all your wedding guests sharing their love and support on the pages throughout the book.

Words

This weeks theme was WORDS. The one word that kept coming to mind all week when I was trying to think of a picture was BELIEVE, so I knew I had to find something that went with that for my picture this week.  There is a verse that I knew was the perfect thing for it, Acts 16:31, I just had to find a way to mix all of that together.  So this is it, I would love to know what you think.

Project 52

So I decided the first week of the year that I really wanted to do the Project 52 this year. Project 52 is taking 1 picture a week, for myself and not for a photo shoot,  that goes along with a theme and then posting it to the group. Well I knew I really wanted to do it, but knew that I was going to have to start it late, since I had a lot going on. I am starting this week and I am going to post them on my blog as well as on the group, that way my friends, family and customers can see what I am shooting in my off time.   I also want to do this because it is going to challenge me so that I don't get stuck in a rut, and end up being bored with my pictures.
This weeks theme was Muse.  Well the one thing that has continually inspired me to take pictures over the last year in a half is what I decided was the best choice for this week.

Yep she loves being on the tractor, but she loves for people to be paying attention to her the most (waving into the grandstands and smiling the whole time)

I would love to read your comments each week and know what you think of my version of the theme, as well as your thoughts on the pictures I post.

December Wedding

Well I know I haven't posted in a while, but with Christmas, New Years and company over the last month, I haven't had time. So I will be playing catch up over the next few weeks.
This is a peek into a wedding I shot in December. What a beautiful Couple, I had so much fun with them.

Thank you so very much for letting me share in your day.
