Birthday Planning: Theme

Aaron will be ONE on Apr. 27th!!! That means I have 2-3 months to start planning!!

I have been waiting for this!!! First step in my planning is a birthday theme. At first I wanted to do a dinosaur theme because I noticed the little guy was attracted to the color green but then my sister gave me an awesome idea:

SUPERHERO'S!!!!! DUH!!! I don't know why I didn't think of this, Aaron is after all, a SUPER BABY!!! My husband is in love! you see, not only is a shoe collector, but he reads comics, and is a toy "collector", yup, I married a NERD! at least he's good looking! :b

Like Father, Like Son

My husband is a shoe collector! what is that?

Well he has over 200 pairs of mostly Nike Shoes: Jordan's, Lebron's, etc....
He has been starting a little collection for the little guy too and even though this habit annoys me sometimes, it is sooo cute to see their shoes together!

Lebrons

By the way I took that pic!!! on semi-manual mode!!! Manual Focus Baby!!! I am getting better at using my camera. I had the blinds all the way open to bring the sun in and that just made it easy! so note to self, let in all light for great pics!

the joy of LOVE: Day 2

Day 2 of this fun project is to photograph your subject & how they look.

Subject: My 9 month old
Look: Peek a Boo

I got down on the floor for this one and hid behind the kitchen counter, I popped out to say Peek A Boo and this was the look I got!!! :)

This pic is SOOC (Straight out of camera)

 

the joy of LOVE: Day 1

Day one's assignment was to photograph the one you love doing what they DO!

Subject: My 9 month old.
What he does: EATS

Took the pic on my canon rebel and I won't lie I took the easy way out and shot the pic on automatic, I hang my head in shame!! :(

But I did use Pioneer Woman's warmer action to help liven the pic up a little.

Without further ado:

 

To all the lovely ladies out there...

My little guy says HEY!!!!

It's February!!!! I can not wait for Valentine's Day!

Stretching my Photography Skills (or lack of)

I am so excited! Ever since getting my Canon Rebel in the fall, I have been obsessed with learning how to really use it & take great pics of my family. I still plan to use professional photography for special occasions but at times budget just doesn't permit that.

Anywho, I came across Willette Photography & More when looking for tutorials & tips and saw that she is hosting a workshop called the joy of LOVE. The purpose is to take pics of the ones you love while learning more about photography. I will get daily assignments and will be sharing my progress. Can't Wait!!! It starts tomorrow!!!

What's Sexier than this????!!!!!

NADA!!! NOTHING!!!! THOSE ARE MY LOVES!!! MY LITTLE FAMILY!!!!
