I♥Faces – Pets

Posted on June 29, 2010

I love pet week at i♥faces. If my memory serves me right, last years pet week was the first time I entered into one of their weekly contests.





If you know me personally, you know I am an animal lover. Ahh, shucks. You might as well call me the cat lady….it’s been said a time or two :) I have Tango my orange tabby boy, Zoe is our Siamese Princess, Rajah is my sensitive Bengal boy, and then there is Leo. Leo is no stranger to my camera or my blog. He came to me as a foster through Bengal Rescue Network, but I just couldn’t let him go. He is a very special cat and was the perfect addition to even out our cat family.

I♥Faces – Play

Posted on June 9, 2010

This weeks theme is “Play”, which can be interpreted in so many ways. I chose a picture I took last weekend at the i♥faces photo walk across America. This couple was fabulous. They were so in love and it showed in every picture taken of them throughout the day. :)

I♥Faces – Yellow

Posted on May 24, 2010

This weeks contest theme is Yellow. I was very excited when I found out about it, as I knew which one I was going to enter. I did not take this for the challenge, but it fits perfectly. Say hello to my very beautiful and talented little sister, Jamie. She let me take her downtown for a little practice senior session. This fantastic yellow brick wall was in the parking garage, and was my most favorite capture of the day.

i ♥ faces photo challenge: Smiles!

Posted on April 27, 2010

The challenge this week at i ♥ faces is all about Smiles! Although I have a ton of great smile pictures of my daughter and many other beautiful little ones, I immediately knew which photo would be my entry for this week. 14 day old baby Jayden was my very first newborn shoot, and was the perfect little model for me. He gave me no trouble at all, and at the end of our session he gave me his thanks with a smile. I must say, I did a little happy dance right after capturing this photo. I think his parents might have thought I was a little crazy. hehe

Head on over to i ♥ faces to see more beautiful smiles!

i ♥ faces photo challenge: Dramatic Black and White

Posted on March 30, 2010

This weeks theme at I♥Faces is “Dramatic B&W”. I was fortunate enough to be able to take my sister out shooting again this weekend, and this time we wanted to hit up the city. I was most excited about shooting in and around the parking garage, crazy as it sounds. And that parking garage didn’t disappoint! It was my favorite location of the day, and this was one of the first photos we took right after getting out of the car. It was fantastic dramatic lighting and my sister rocked it. Thanks for being my model again, Jamie. ♥

i ♥ faces photo challenge: Focusing on Angles

Posted on March 23, 2010

The theme this week at iheartfaces is “Focusing on Angles” and for the first time I actually took the picture for the theme, rather than finding a picture already taken after the theme was announced. I love to see different angles in photography and although it may not come naturally to me, it is something I have been trying to work very hard on. My daughter is not so willing to pose these days, and to get just a few moments of cooperation is sure to cost me 30 extra minutes before bed or maybe a chocolate ice cream bar. Even then it’s slim pickings. I usually end up with expressions like this.
(which I love BTW, don’t get me wrong) ;)

Are we done yet?!? Because this is like the third picture you’ve taken already! geeze.

i ♥ faces photo challenge: Bundled Up

Posted on March 16, 2010


The theme this week at i♥faces is “Bundled Up”. On the way home from work today I remembered a photo I took that I thought would be appropriate. I forget if posting animals is allowed when it’s not pet week, but you can’t miss Leo’s handsome “face” peeking out from behind the covers he loves to sleep under……when we are not looking of course. ;)

Don’t forget to stop by i♥faces to check out some more “Bundled Up” photos.

Jump for Joy!

Posted on March 8, 2010

I originally added these photos to the iheartfaces challenge, but needed to edit it down to just one. But I wanted to repost these as it seems most everyone that stopped by so far enjoyed them. Cali was being super helpful and allowing me to practice shutter priority mode last fall, which turned out to be about an hour of fun a giggles. :)

i ♥ faces photo challenge: Jump for Joy!

Posted on March 8, 2010

The Challenge at i♥faces is “Jump for Joy.” I have some fun jumping pictures from when I was practicing shutter priority mode last fall. It ended up being a really fun time for myself and my daughter. We laughed so much and she caught on quick that the dramatic facial expressions made for better jumping shots. We had to look at every one after every jump, of course. :)

Don’t forget to stop by i♥faces to see more amazing Jump for Joy photos.

***edited to add, there was a typo at iheartfaces and it orginally said we could enter 5 photos. But it is really supposed to be only one. I have edited my post to include only one shot, but I also made a new blog post to show the sequence you may see being mentioned in the comments. Click on blog home to see those***
