February Photo Challenge

Monday, 10 February 2014

The photo challenge theme for February is "Lifestyle". Lifestyle photography is how I would describe my style of photography - capturing life's everyday moments.

This photo is one of my favourites - my son watching his dad shave. It's amazing to watch my little baby grow up and start to copy the things that we do. It's just a reminder that they don't stay little forever and before long he will be all grown up and shaving on his own!!!

But until that day, I will enjoy every moment.


 
 

January Photo Challenge

Monday, 20 January 2014

The best part about photography is that there is so much to learn. You could study and practice photography your whole life and would still never learn everything.

Another really important part of being a photographer is finding your own style. I am still struggling to find this - but loving every minute as I get there.

To keep myself motivated and challenged I have joined a group of photographers in a 365 Challenge where you have to take a photo every day. This forces me to keep my camera with me and to capture my daily life. It also pushes me to try things I might not otherwise think to try. I will share some of these images on my blog as I go.

Another challenge I am taking part in is the Rock the Shot Monthly Challenge. This month is Favourite Shot of 2013.

Picking my favourite shot of 2013 was a hard one. I knew that I wanted to use a photo from my personal collection... but which one! I am also bias when it comes to photos of my family because each one is so special to me and in my eyes they are all perfect.

I settled on this photo because not only is it of my most favourite person in the world, my son, but it also brings back memories from our recent trip to PEI.

... plus look at those eyes!!! (unedited... I swear!!)
