Project 365: Days 325-333

11/27/2015

The last of the {combination light}. I can't believe we only have one more month of {finding the light} in the year. One more month of my 365 project. Another month passes, and my little one grows and grows. To see her go from a non-walking baby in footie jammies to a little girl who can scale anything and loves to explore has been incredible. I feel so privileged to have captured it all and to be able to see the images as proof of how much she's grown and changed.

325.365 Mommy took all of the sheets off her bed, and you thought it was amazing to be able to jump on the big, empty bed. And then you made this adorable face, and my heart melted. {window light} {side light} {spot light}
Picture
326.365 A late night snack before bed to help you grow. Just look how small your jammies are getting. {low light} {side light}
Picture
327.365 Mommy snuck into the shot for this one. With Baby Girl #2 on the way, I waned to capture one of just us. ♥ {window light} {side light} {spotlight}
Picture
328.365 We bought a new couch where there was previously a bare spot. You think it's awesome because you can reach the light now. Turning lights off and on is a new game. {low light} {spot light} {side light}
Picture
329.365 Getting ready to run some errands, but not before I spotted you cuddling with your ducky. {window light} {side light}
Picture
330.365 Lying on the floor, I lifted you in the air on my knees because you love to "schlip." I love this view of your pretty little face. {window light} {diffused light}
Picture
331.365 Mommy let you sit on the kitchen counter, and of course, you just wanted to play in the water. You tried squeezing it in your hands, but you thought it was even more fun that it squirted everywhere instead. {window light} {hard light} {side light}
Picture
332.365 Wakey wakey, little one. You've been waking two hours before your normal time, and we're all having a little trouble adjusting. {window light} {diffused light}
Picture
333.365 Daddy put out the nice crystal dish with candy, and you're pretty good about not just trying to get a piece on your own, but I see it happening soon. {window light} {side light}

Another week of combo light. I'm loving this month because it provides such artistic liberty and real discernment of which types of light are involved.
Picture
318.365 I was making the bed and had all of the sheets off when you hopped up there with your sock monkey and started jumping and laughing and rolling around. My little monkey jumping on the bed. {window light} {side light}
Picture
319.365 "Shlip! Shlip!" you tell me. That means flip. {window light} {side light}
Picture
320.365 After looking back through the photos and videos from Halloween, I realized how very little you are, and you were absolutely adorable dressed as a sock monkey. You had the trick-or-treat thing down pat, running as quickly as you could from house to house, even the ones without lights on. And when we had to leave, you screamed and cried, and I wished we could have continued trick-or-treating because you loved it so much. {last light} {diffused light}
Picture
321.365 You and Daniel Tiger, wandering in the field on one of the last warmer days of the year. {back light} {rim light} {last light}
Picture
322.365 The early morning sun was hazy and beautiful as it poured into the kitchen, and your photog mommy just couldn't resist breaking the rules and letting you sit on the kitchen counter to eat your breakfast. You didn't seem to mind. {window light} {back light} {first light}
Picture
323.365 I took so many self portraits when I was pregnant with you, and your little sister has very few. So here we are, the three girls. {window light} {diffused light}
Picture
324.365 Your daddy insisted on this hat, and it fits your personality to a "t." When we placed it on your head, you immediately transformed into a crazy child, running wildly through the yard and making crazy faces. {subtle rim light} {last light} {back light}

1st Birthday Party 2014

11/16/2015

Being a photographer who is also a mom (aka momtog) can be overwhelming sometimes because you can get reaaaalllly behind on your own family's photos. At this point, I still have all of 2014 and 2015 to edit and *hopefully* get into albums. My goal is to get it all done before baby arrives in February....yikes! So I've buckled down, and I finally got our daughter's 1st birthday party from last year edited. She's already had her 2nd birthday party, and even though they were in the same location, I'm kind of embarrassed by the quality of last year's photos. But the memories were what really count.

We had an Alice in Wonderland theme, and my very talented grandmother sewed her dress to look identical to the one in the movie. We had a royal tea party, and my husband the Mad Hatter performed magic tricks for the kids. And since Little One's birthday is just before Halloween, we made it a costume party, which turned out awesome! What a lucky girl to have so many people in her life who love her. We appreciated everyone who came to celebrate her first crazy year of life, and what a joy to celebrate her health after a bumpy ride.

I can't believe what a baby she was just one short year ago. It makes me want to hold onto her a little tighter for fear that she'll grow before my very eyes.
