exploring & smiling.

April 19, 2012

We took a little nature walk yesterday, investigated some pinecones and smiled a bit for the camera.

What child doesn’t love a lollipop? Mine certainly do!  While Jackson enjoyed a Tootsie pop today, I snapped some images of my little boy.

Each and every time I take photos with my Lensbaby, I fall more in love with it.  There is a magical, ethereal quality that it gives to images that I just find so lovely. Here is my littlest holding some flowers…swoon.

It goes without saying that I LOVE my children, that I ADORE them, that I cannot get enough of them (well, sometimes I can), but when it comes to this guy, he is my go-to muse for practicing out a photography-related idea. He might complain a little bit, but I know that deep down he loves that I ask to take his photo. He knows that I rely on him because he will sit still and be goofy and wear props and give life to my ideas. And for that reason, I sat him down today before the last light of the day vanished and I just grabbed a few shots. I {heart} him so much.

Of course, Christmas is all about spending time with family and cherishing moments together so our theme for this last week in December is family. I decided to take a lighthearted approach to this theme and share some outtakes of our Christmas card shoot back in November. I think the outtakes tell the story so much better. I have decided that next year, I am going to have a filmstrip of outtakes posted on the back of my card.

And sometimes playing superheroes with your brother is really the best fun of all!

Happy Halloween wishes from a hippie, Hulk Hogan, a blue monster, and a witch!

Hope you have a boo-tiful day!

I seem to be obsessed, as of late, with fake glasses. I have seen them all over fashion ads lately and apparently I’m jumping on the bandwagon.  They’re fun!

This was an impromptu photo shoot the other day. My little guy was wearing his favorite shirt and when I handed him these silly glasses, I couldn’t resist snapping a few photos.

Sigh….I just love this boy.
