I Heart Faces Best Faces of 2016 Challenge

I love this boy of mine.  He is the calmest of my 3 boys (hallelujah!) and when I want to practice with my camera, he is always willing and patient.  This image of him captures his zen personality perfectly. Here is my submission for the Best Faces of 2016 Challenge from at I Heart Faces.

Week 8 - Change of Scenery

I never shoot in my kitchen because I've always found more pleasing light in other areas of my house.  But today, some pears and I tried to find the light on my kitchen counter.

Week 7 - Photographer's Choice

Week 6 - Relax

Relaxing for me usually means quiet, but with a house full of active boys, this seldom happens.  My sister, Kaisa, gave me this coloring book for my birthday and I love it.  What's even better is all of my boys love it too and are blissfully quiet as they color.  Logically, I had to get one for each of them.  I literally sigh with relief as they settle in for a coloring session and I relax for a few minutes before the mayhem begins again.

Week 5 - Find The Light

Since starting this project last year, I've learned to spot good light a little better.  My problem though, is knowing what to do with it once I find it!  Lots of trial and error.  Here is Bridger, taking a break from a jam session. ;)

Week 4 - The Four Seasons - Part 1

Finley usually loves the snow, but this morning was a blizzard with snow blowing everywhere and he absolutely refused to go outside.  He spent most of the morning glaring out the window until I finally pushed him out the door so he could take care of his business.

Week 3 - Favorite Thing
