iheartfaces Scenic Black and White Challenge



The ladies at iheartfaces are changing it up a bit this week with a "scenic" theme that does not have to feature a face. I thought of this picture of Sari and Abi from VA. They were out watching this horse in the pasture with rapt fascination. Too cute!

Holiday Photos- Yates Family


It's not too early to think about holiday photos, although it may seem a little strange to pick a pumpkin patch as the venue. But this family is from abroad, and pumpkin patches are not common where they hail from, so they wanted to have their pictures taken there to send to all their relatives.

Many families like to update their children's photos each year. Here are Marie's two sons at a local nature preserve on a photo shoot for their birthdays.















And here's one with all three kids :-)

iheartfaces Vroom, Vroom Challenge


Vroom, Vroom is this week's theme over at iheartfaces. I immediately thought of some pictures I took at an antique car gathering in our little city. There were all these old, amazing cars that had been totally restored. Some of them even displayed the matching Matchbox car that was modelled on their classic. And then there was this guy...


His presence there spoke volumes to me. I didn't get to actually speak to him, but I'm confident he was the "real deal" and I'm sure he had some war stories to tell. I admired him for being here- the genuine article with a story to tell- among all the others with their "hobby" cars.

Photovision's Amazing DVD Deal


Photovision DVDs are THE BEST. If you are a professional photographer, wanna-be, or just someone with a camera and a desire to learn more, you will be amazed at how much these DVDs will teach you. I first learned about them on a photography group I am part of, and figured for the money I couldn't go wrong. But they are a treasure. Real shoots with real (amazing) professional photographers sharing what they know with YOU. I've gleaned SO much. It's like going to an expensive professional photographers' conference, except you control what you learn/watch and when you watch it.

There is a special right now- 6 two hour long DVDs (one mailed to you every other month for a year) for just $39. I have two years worth, and each and every one of them is worth more than $39 individually, but you get all 6 for $39. Go HERE to check them out. There is a money back guarantee, but you won't need it, because you will LOVE these DVDs.

Legal Disclaimer: If enough people use my link to purchase the DVDs, I can win free products from Photovision, but the endorsement I offer is truly based on my own personal experience with these DVDs, which I paid for and LOVE.

iheartfaces Beach Challenge

This week's challenge was, well, a challenge for me. We just got back from Sanibel a few weeks ago, but I really was playing the role of "mom with a camera" than "professional photographer". Don't get me wrong, I got some amazing shots...but few that met the iheartfaces criteria of having a human face in them (lots of gorgeous sunsets, kids silhouetted in those sunsets, sea creatures, and sea gulls with their prey) :-). Of the ones that actually showed a face, I chose this one because I love that the kids found a sand dollar. That may be common place in some areas, but we've never found a live one on Sanibel before, and Mimi, as you can see was radiant.
