Ever see a photographer who starts out with a 365 day project, or even a 52 week project and never finishes? Yeah, me too. Well, I recently joined a group of a few other busy photographers who decided to commit to a 12 month project! If we fail this, we’ll be taking donations for a time management seminar. The best part is that it will be candid, lifestyle shots of each of our own families/lives. We don’t even have to dredge up random people or make our kids pose for us. We’re calling the series “The Story of ________” and we’ll each be filling in our own blanks. At the end of this post is a link to another photographer who participated and she’ll be linking to someone else. It’s a whole big circle of stories in pictures. Click through and enjoy!
The story of Homework
homework is a new big deal around here… my son is in grade one and he is getting a lot of homework this year.. big change from kindergarten!!!! lots of reading and writing i can believe how much he’s progressed in the last two months of being in grade 1. Surprisingly he doesn’t protest too much about doing it…though there are days he gets frustrated… especially when we leave it to the last minute and we need to rush!!
i would love for you to follow through the circle of photographers with me and see their take on the life story series?? take a moment and head on over to nancy wilkins’ blog and take a look… then continue on through the circle of photographers!!!

These are so great, Amy!!! I love the pride at the end and the crayon shot is my fave!! Great set!!!
Oh my word. These are beautiful! You’ve taken homework and made it beautiful. That’s a GIFT!
These are so cute… what a handsome guy he is.
I love that you have captured his concentration and all the little details! These are lovely, Amy!
As an educator – I LOVE this!
Aw, this is fantastic!
Good job little dude. Homework can be very tough sometimes. Great story Amy!
Great job with these Amy! He is so adorable.
I love these, he’s so proud of himself in the last one!
Wonderful! I love his look of concentration!
These are great!
LOVE these!! You will treasure these always- great idea for storytelling!!
These are fantastic Amy! What a great memory to have and look back on – a time where he enjoyed his homework haha!
Homework is such a huge part of being a school kid. I love how nicely you documented it. He’s such a cutie. Love his concentration in that first one, and that last one is like “HURRAY! I’m DONE!”
Love these Amy. Love his work. To cute.
Love!!!!!!!!!
Love these Amy! I especially love the ones where he is holding the pencil and the crayon. Someday, when he’s bigger and holding the pencil the “proper” way, you’ll look back at these and remember how little he was and how when he first started writing he held the pencil the “wrong” way!
ugh i know right! i’ve tried so many times to get him to hold his pencil properly and he won’t do it even bought him one of those grippy things for his pencil and he still holds it wrong lol
Adorable! Love the look of pride on his face in the last one!
Love this project!!! ANd hurrah for your little scholar! Thanks for sharing!
