Through the Lens Thursday: Sign

A sign: A sign that, after a week or so of nice weather, winter is returning: A sign that I’m in denial about that: A sign that my friends love and know me well: A sign that my kids will do anything to delay getting ready […]

Through the Lens Thursday: Delicious (Happy birthday, Mom!)

I’m not a foodie, or a baker, and I don’t take particularly good photos of food or baked goods.

But, I think I’ve grown into a pretty good daughter (if you don’t count my high school years against me).

Today is my mom’s birthday, and it’s a pretty big milestone. The kids […]

Through the Lens Thursday: Colorful

 

The weather has been really cold this week, but the sunsets and sunrises have been amazing and full of vibrant colors (maybe that’s the consolation prize for how miserable it is to be outside?).

I always see the best skies when I’m driving though, and by the time I get home […]

Through the Lens Thursday: New

Happy New Year! I drank Moscato Spumanti Champagne (or something) last night and was asleep by 11. So I’m just assuming it’s 2015 now!

Christmas, new presents, new new new.

I have a lot to say about the new year, and the old one. But I’m also the old one and headed […]

Through The Lens Thursday: Lights

Merry Christmas! I can’t believe this is the last TTLT of the year….we made it! Without further ado…LIGHTS. We went to see family this weekend and T and I stayed with my brother and sister-in-law. This was from below the light fixture in their kitchen. And these were after […]

Through the Lens Thursday 2015!

At the beginning of this year, I wrote this: I want to be confident each time I pick up my Nikon, and use my brand new Lightroom software to edit smartly, thoughtfully, easily. In 2014, I want to be better at photography. I want to pick up my camera and […]

Through the Lens Thursday: Loud

I told the kids that they could yell and scream this week, specifically for this prompt, and I think the results show a little bit of the chaos that is our house. And this is totally fuzzy, but I love it because basically, this is my […]

Through the Lens Thursday: Pair

This past weekend, we paired Christmas music on the radio with a Playmobil Santa’s workshop set* (when I ordered it, I thought it was an advent calendar, but it turned out to be just a kit you build…which was good, because I was about four days late getting it out). […]

Through the Lens Thursday: Close Up

It feels strange to not have written anything this week after posting every day in November. But also, I’ve not had any inclination to write here this week. Moving on. Through The Lens Thursday is a self-improvement photography project that Alison of Writing, Wishing and I […]

Through The Lens Thursday: Clear

The holiday week, NaBloPoMo, and the stress of hosting Thanksgiving had me all messed up, so this is a day late. It’s clear that my kids have VERY different Christmas wish list styles. The girls’ (AKA start in October, cutting out all of the things we want and tape them […]
