Week 35 - Old

This week is something "Old". My mom's wooden shoes. She wore these when I was younger and now they're mine. They may be old, but they've outlasted every other pair of shoes I've ever owned.


My Dad's images are of a leaning barn that looks like it is going to bite the dust at any moment.

Week 34 - Eyes

The eyes are the window to the soul and always seems to be the most captivating part of an image.  I love my boys light blue eyes and had fun trying to capture their soul this week.


Bridger's eyes were blue up until he was 2 years-old and then they changed to hazel.  Who is this masked man?



I took this cutie's picture last year, but his eyes are so striking and immediately came to my mind when thinking about eyes this week.



I took this picture a few months back too, but Sage's eyes came to mind as well.  Isn't she a beauty?


Week 33 - Photographer's Choice

In contrast to Hayden (with his Oscar-worthy dramatics) from last week, this boy is always obliging when I need a face to practice on.  In this picture, I told him to relax for a moment while I changed my settings and then sneaked this shot.


I love so many things about my Dad's image.  T

Week 32 - Green

Green.  My favorite color.  I kept my eyes peeled this past week for anything green that jumped out at me. Like any good boy scout, I was prepared by bringing my camera everywhere...just in case.  As I was driving my son to his orthodontist appointment, I passed an old train station with green doors.  Uuurrrrch.  Perfect!  I sweetly asked my son if he'd be in a few pictures.  THIS was his reaction to my request.  By his dramatic body language and pained expressions, you'd think I asked him to give away his beloved dog or something.  The emotions were REAL, people!






My dad's picture is full of green!  I love the close-up details of the dandelion. Aren't you just itching to blow it?
