Could he BE any cuter???  I’ve photographed him 4 times now.  The first was when his Mom was pregnant with him.  He wasn’t always too keen on the camera, but that didn’t stop us from getting lots of good images.  Those blue eyes are such a treat!

Thanks Janice and Jason!  Your gallery is coming soon!

This one had me giggling.  It looks like he is trying to read my logo.

Love how he is hanging onto Dad’s shirt.

I’m going through our 2008 photos to make a family album.   Came across this one.  I love everything about this . . . the sky, the shadow, her ponytail, and that bandaid that won’t stick to her knee anymore because of the sand.  She insisted on the bandaid.  Makes me smile to see it flapping in the wind.

She’s been telling me lately that I’m her BEST friend and she wants to keep me.  Makes my heart flutter.  She’s 3 and so sweet and lovey.  I will never tire of her hugs and kisses.

My sweet girl.

My daughter humored me one Sunday not long ago.  The weather was wonderful . . . sunny and in the 40s!  We still had a beautiful blanket of snow so I asked her to please, please let me take pictures of her playing in the woods.  She had worn her Matilda Jane skirt to church (they had a sale and I couldn’t resist) and I really wanted to get a few images of her wearing it.  She reluctantly agreed.  These were taken near where we live.   Once we got there she hopped out of the van and started running and exploring.  At one point I heard her say she was traveling back from the center of the earth.  🙂  After we were done I asked her if it was as bad as she thought it was going to be.  She said no and told me she had a lot of fun!  And that made me very happy.

Here is the finished wall of pictures.  You have no idea how many times those pictures have been rearranged.  My husband would catch me staring at them and he KNEW that meant there was a change a brewin’.  They have been this way for weeks.  So I think it is safe to say they will remain like this for awhile.  Each image is 12×12 mounted on 2mm styrene, sprayed for protection and then framed without glass.  Framing without glass cuts down on glare and really allows the pictures to pop.  Love that!

You can see this wall as soon as you walk in the front door.  It really makes a statement.  And it really helps to cure the winter blahs that can easily set in this time of year.

I copied got the idea from Tara Whitney.  Hey!  I used different images!  😉

This is the other wall in the living room, just to the left of the wall of images.   This is how it looked right after I finished it.  Neat and tidy.

This is how it looks now.  A little more stuff, but not too bad.
