52 week challenge | week 1 – Action {windsor ontario photographer}

Sunday, January 9th, 2011

some of you may remember last year i was doing the 52 week challenge with a bunch of photographer friends. Basically each week we get a theme and have to take a picture to represent that theme. well i failed miserably last year. I lasted a couple months and then got behind and eventually just stopped. So i’m going to try again this year. i’m already a day late. i’m also going about it a bit differently. i think part of my failure was the feeling that i had to put up this amazingly thought out image that was perfect. this year i’m not going to worry to much about it. i’m going to use this project to document the everyday. and hopefully a really great thought out portrait sprinkled in here and there.

this weekend my husband took the boys out to see a monster truck show and my daughter and i had our own girls night. which included a trip to the movies to see Tangled!! it was really good if you haven’t seen it yet you should go!!

So here is my crappy cell phone picture of this weeks theme “action”

Weekly Challenge{weeks 6,7,8,9}

Friday, July 23rd, 2010

ok so i’m behind on these and just got a little reminder. i’ve been taking the pics but not posting them. so here are my last three weeks…another one is due today but i haven’t done it yet…i should be caught up by next week.
WEEK 6 ~ water
my boy learning to swim….water wing free!!! he’s part fish i tell ya!

WEEK 7~ money
i took this late…we were at camp..i’ll talk about that more in my week 8 intro.. this was taken at the “tuck shop” where you can buy candy and snacks and drinks.

WEEK 8~ shoes
This week we were up at my parents cottage!! so much fun i love it there!!! here are my son’s shoes left down at the water…again.. we were packing up to leave and couldn’t find them..i should of known.

WEEK 9~hats
So like i mentioned in week 6 we were at a childrens camp this week i was volunteering as the nurse and my daughter was attending the camp as a camper…and the boys were just causing trouble .lol Actually we were at this camp I love it there…i spent most of my teen years there.  if you want to send your child to camp..you should really consider sending them here.  so the theme for the week that i was there “High sea Adventures”  and the campers got to decorate sailor hats!!

Chairs 5/52

Monday, June 21st, 2010

oops missed fridays day of posting for the weekly challenge..it’s been a busy week.  won’t bore you with the details but believe me it was busy and i totally forgot about this challenge.  so today during our father’s day celebration  i was watching my youngest son sit in this chair and watch his big brother swim.  i thought it was so cute and then the lightbulb went off…CHAIRS!!..  no swimming for this little guy he broke his finger earlier in the week…

52/4 {desserts/sweets}

Friday, June 11th, 2010

i like ice cream. Yes i do!!
Once scoop for me?
No! Make it two!
Hmmmm two scoops of ice cream,
I want more
how about three?
No, make that four?
1,2,3,4,
Splat, “oh no! It’s on the floor!”

my kids definitely got their sweet tooth from me. i wish that wasn’t the case but it is.  my youngest probably craves the sweet stuff the most. candy was in the top 10 of his first words. he would eat it for breakfast lunch and dinner if i let him.  So for this weeks challenge i thought of what he has been asking for a lot lately and that is ice cream.  He loves it!!! we don’t usually have it in the house so i took him and his older sister to get some so i could take some pictures… of course they both wanted nothing to do with my planned ice cream shoot and the ice cream parlor was packed. so we went outside and i just let them be and snapped a few of the youngest.  my daughter ended up dropping hers so the above poem was totally fitting.


52/3 {books}

Friday, June 4th, 2010

so it’s week 3 of the 52 week challenge…and this week’s theme is books.  i used to read a lot more then i do now.  most of the books i read now a days are childrens books. but i do get a real novel in once in a while. usually only when i’m away on vaction.  i think my favorite book would have to be Little Women. love that one!!  Anyways i had a few ideas of what i would do for this weeks theme. i’m using my first attempt cause well the others didn’t ever happen.  The flu or something has entered my house yesterday. yuck!!  think i might hide in my room with a good book! ha!

52/2 trees

Saturday, May 29th, 2010

week 2 of the 52 week challenge…have no clue what i’m talking about then read here so this week was tough…i was totally uninspired..hmm much like last week.  i really wanted to cheat and post an old picture…i’ve had some recent clients..that liked trees…..or liked climbing them anyways… so i really wanted to post this one…

or maybe this one…

then there is always this one

but that would be cheating…so i am posting this pic i took tonight. my little man who didn’t want his picture taken…he was patiently putting up with me cause he knew the next stop was to get popsicles!!! looking forward to next weeks challenge…books…i already know what i’m gonna do!!

52 week challenge – week 1 {time}

Friday, May 21st, 2010

some photog friends kate and whitley decided to start doing a weekly photography challenge. click on their names if you want to read about it.  basically there is a theme for each week and we take one picture that represents that theme. some upcoming themes are going to be: trees, books, candy/treats/desserts, chair….

so the theme this week is time.  i had trouble thinking of what to do but then i thought of this song. it’s one i’ve always loved.  i had something totally different pictured in my head for the image but it didn’t happen. still love this shot though…

I am a flower quickly fading,
Here today and gone tomorrow,
A wave tossed in the ocean,
A vapor in the wind.
Still you hear me when I’m calling,
Lord, you catch me when I’m falling,
And you’ve told me who I am.
I am yours.
