Day 2: Cold Weather Fun

We brought the heifers to their calving grounds today. The weather outside was beautiful, but the temperature was truly frightful! The steam coming off the heifers and horses was amazing!

365 Photo Project

I'm doing it again! Each day for this year, I will be posting a photo. I'm feeling like I'm in a huge creative slump and need something to help me get going again. I hope that you will join me on this amazing journey!!

Day 1: Magic in Books

There truly is something magical that happens when you open a book! I saw a similar picture on Pinterest and wanted to see if I could recreate it with my Christmas tree before we took it down. My three oldest girls were excited and had LOTS of ideas! My youngest didn't get too excited, as you can see, she's not in the picture. This shot was a lot harder than it looks! I'm hoping to revisit it again and again, learning more lighting techniques and positioning.

These cute boys were troopers today! It was freezing cold, but they still managed to give me some great smiles and poses! Being silly works magic on bringing out the best smiles!!

Black & White

There is something about side profiles of little kids in black and white that totally grabs me! I'm not sure why, but maybe it's the raw emotion shown on their little faces. I love this image! I think it's my favorite one out of all the pictures I took of this cute little guy! He didn't want to smile, and in this shot he was trying really hard not to!! But I love how this one turned out!
