Week 36 - Sept 14th - Contemplative

It's a new week which means another challenge from I ♥ Faces. This week the theme was "contemplative". After looking through a lot of my pictures, I decided to go with this one. I really love the different facial expressions each of my nieces and nephew are making. To me they all appear to be in different stages of the thought process, from deep to natural. They crack me up, I can sit here all day and just try to imagine what they were thinking at the time I took this. It will never get old!!

Make sure you head over to I ♥ Faces for some really cool "contemplative" photos!

Week 33, Nostalgia Photo Challenge

This week at iheartfaces the challenge theme is "Nostalgia". I don't know about you guys but I was kinda like, 'what does that word mean again'? Yeah, I know, I'm a dork! I had a pretty good idea, but of course looked it up just to be sure. Once I got all that taken care of, I knew immediately which photo I wanted to enter. This is a picture I took of my niece in her daddy's duffle bag. For me this picture brings back memories of my Grandpa who was a marine, but for her and her family, this picture is both a happy memory and exciting reminder of their dad who should be coming home from Iraq in the next couple of months.

Week 32 - “Bubbles” Photo Challenge!

It's another Monday photo challenge at iHeartFaces. (I love participating in these) The boys and I headed outside, bubbles in hand, to take some pictures. But because we live in Phoenix, it was a little too hot for the boys to wait around until I got a picture I liked. We didn't get much, but I really like the clarity of the bubbles on this picture, especially the one popping on his fingers. Hope you like!

"Crazy, Funny, Silly Faces"

I ♥ Faces "Crazy, Funny, Silly Faces"

If you have noticed, I have really began taking pictures a lot!! Every chance I get, I pull out the camera and snap little moments in time. I know I have a long way to go, but I am really enjoying myself as I search new angles and get different ideas of where and what to shoot. I have really began following this site, I ♥ Faces, since I came across it on another blog that takes really good pictures (thanks Lori). Anyway, they have weekly contests, and this week they are asking for "crazy, funny, silly faces". This picture, one of the many I came across, just makes me laugh. This is the same face I get from my little one every time I try to take his picture outside. It doesn't matter if we are in the shade or in the sun, his little nose scrunches up, telling me it is to way too bright outside for him. Hope you enjoy it as much as I do.
