Week Seven | Everyday Photographer

With Valentine’s Day this week I had to get on the whole valentine card project for the boys:-) SO of course I got out a few props and had an impromptu session:-) They LOVE having their picture taken. That’s good because I wanted them to HAM IT UP!

Missing these girls this week too. I learned so much there, but am honestly struggling with how to integrate what I learned there, with our life here.

Week Five | Everyday Photographer

I rented some lenses, one of them a MACRO lens:-) I LOVE it, but boy my rings are BEAT up! I guess thats what almost 12 years of marriage gets you:-) I’ll take it!

28/365

These rings are my boys names, on the other side their birthdates:-) I LOVE these, I wear them everyday. They remind me to pray always for them and be thankful always for the gifts that they are:-)

Trying out my flash with my niece MJ:-)

More practice with the macro:-) This is my birthstone, my parents got it for me when I graduated Cal Poly. I LOVE it! I don’t wear a lot of jewelry but the little I do wear I wear everyday, it just feels like me:-)

THIS smile melts my heart EVERYTIME!

Nothing says “it’s been a good day” better than a bonfire and a SUPER dirty boy. Yes he has freckles, but most of what you see here are NOT freckles:-) I put them both right in the bath when we got home!

Week One | Everyday Photographer

In the interest of simplicity, I am going to switch to a weekly post of my everyday images. Once a week is an improvement in my regular posting, and it isn’t SO overwhelming to sit down and pick my favorite images from the week:-)

4/365

This week we did some cooking, I LOVE cooking and trying new recipes, but I am terrible at photographing said recipes, SO this is my excuse to work on my food photography as well. This is a favorite recipe in our house! I was actually trying to salvage this beer. I bought it because long ago I had an amazing pumpkin beer and I am trying to find something that compares, but let’s just say…this one DOES NOT! But luckily it added what was needed to the bread and didn’t ruin it:-)

This was a new recipe, SO yummy! Whole Wheat Banana Chocolate muffins! A definite repeat!
