Since I’ve been doing documentary family work, I’ve entered two contests sponsored by two different organizations. I love each one for very different reasons. I sooooo wish there were some way they could merge their awesomeness. That might be one of the coolest things ever. Let me explain.

Have you ever seen those amazing, mythical photographers that complete 365 projects? No? Me either! While I’ve known of many who have started or been in the midst of them, I can count on one hand the number I know who have finished them! For those of you who don’t know, a 365 project is where you take a photo every single day for a year and share it. I’ve been wanting to do one for awhile now, to document my childrens’ lives (they grow and change so fast). It sounds simple enough, but man is it HARD
Highlights from a full DITL with this family of six – from homemade chocolate chip pancakes in the morning, to story time before bed – scroll through for a glimpse of their jam-packed day!
I posted this photo on my personal facebook page the other day with the caption, “self-portrait from today.” A friend commented: Awwww…..that’s a great pic! Love it! Wait……Self portrait? How’s that reasonably possible? So I chuckled and explained how I did it, but let’s rewind a bit before I get into that.
My short list 😉
