Project 2012 -- Week 44

Project 2012 -- Week 44

October 28 - November 3

Welcome to my Project 2012 weekly post!  This is my time to look back over the past week, 
choose seven favorite images I've taken, and share them here with you.  
If you have a project you're working on, please leave a comment 
so I can visit your blog and see what you're up to!

Ellie took a nice, long rest this week.  I've been pretty busy with homeschooling, creating photo books, streamlining my business, planning for next year's state homeschool convention (the special needs portion), and general day-to-day stuff.  So, that's my personal life, and now here are my images.  :)

These are pretty random, just images I took when I felt like picking Ellie up and capturing something.  I wasn't too inspired by anything in particular, but I did enjoy shooting anyway.

[302] Bananas

[303] Dried oregano

I purchased these letters, and plan on staining them for an upcoming photo shoot with four-month-old twin girls.  I'm very excited about that!

[304] M and J

I've been pondering the upcoming election, and the first verse below kept coming to mind.  It's good to know the Lord is in control.

[305] Wise words

I still have tomatoes from my garden!  These tomatoes below are completing their ripening in a bowl in front of my living room window.

[306] Autumn tomatoes

Here are a couple of books I want to read through someday, when I have time.  (Yeah, right, but I'm still hoping!)

[307] Good reading

This past weekend, I decided to turn my bread dough into garlic rolls.  I rolled it out on the counter, then spread butter and fresh minced garlic over it.  I cut it up into 24 squares (this is two loaves' worth of dough), and formed haphazard balls.  They turned out excellent, and my house smelled wonderful all afternoon!

[308] Garlic rolls

Next week will be more inspiring, especially with a Littles Session!  These twin girls are guaranteed to be adorable and I can't wait to work with them.  I hope you've had a great week!

365 Project -- #302-308

This is the time in my week when I look back at the images I've captured

throughout the previous week, and choose my seven favorites.

These seven--one for each day of the week--are featured below.

October 29 - November 4

A couple of lost images.  Yummy food.  A tea party.  A Bible and some music.  And a teenager with a driver's license.  My images from last week run the gamut!

I discovered these two "lost" images when I was going through my Lightroom "October" album.  The honeybee shots turned out great, and this one below is my favorite.

[302] Honeybee on dandelion

The sun turned the leaves on this tree to gold.  It was really cool framed in my window.

 [303] Through an autumn window

For a family get-together, we decided on "Breakfast at Dinner."  My sister-in-law Charlotte made the below, which were the hit of the evening.

 [304] Maple-brown butter glazed waffles

I took the below for a past and future client; I shot their Mother/Daughter Encouragement Weekend this past year, and I get to fly out to Georgia next February to shoot next year's event!  (I'm so very excited about it.)  They needed some teacup images to promote next year's mother/daughter event, and I was happy to oblige them.  I love tea.  :)

 [305] Rose teacup

My "son" Caleb was thumbing through Proverbs, and I got this shot.  (I called him "son" one day, and he started calling me "Mom."  Kinda nice.)

 [306] Proverbs

And one potential client!  This talented young man is looking forward to a career in music.  I had fun taking these images and experimenting with the light (which was very dim, yuck).  Hopefully the images I captured will give him a good idea of what I can offer.  Although I must say--I can't wait to hold a session with him (and the rest of his musical group) outdoors in good light!

 [307] Sing your heart out

Another one leaves the nest...in our Suburban.  Danny got his driver's license, and two hours later he drove off to class.  I can't tell you how freeing it is, even after just a few days, that I don't have to drive him to college classes any more.  I get to be home and spend more time with Thomas and Joseph.  I am thrilled to be a full-time at-home mom again!

[308] Another one drives away

And so ends my week of images.  Hope you captured some fine memories, too!


Capturing the moments of life.
