Flower Children & Self Portrait

As some may know I participate in a 365 day challenge. My goal was to get back to my love, my camera, and capture more family memories. In order to do this effectively I need to practice, hence the photo a day challenge. Today's prompt is "With Flowers." It is meant as a self portrait challenge and to force the photographer out in front of the camera as we tend to shy away and hide behind the lens.

Self Portrait

I set up shop with my two very eager helpers and we went to work. I fumbled around until I figured out a few poses and I had Arabella helping me by looking through the view finder with my camera on the tripod, and she made sure I was in frame, to the best of her abilities. Then I used my remote to snap off more than enough rounds. In the end I wound up with several photos I really liked. We of course had to get the helpers in on the photos too. ;)

This morning Grandmama and myself were invited to enjoy "Muffins With Mom." As usual Mrs. Gann was a gracious host. The kiddos were adorable as were the gifts they made the Mommy's.

Indoor Light Practice

Since starting up another 365 project I've really been forcing myself to work with the kids indoors using natural light. Outdoors, I'm golden. Indoors...irks me. It's hit or miss for me and I like to blame the lack of window light we get, but you can't improve if you don't practice. I present to you "random photos of the kids playing and getting along."
