This is what I saw when I woke up this morning. It was difficult to get a good shot because it was so dark and the flash kept making Charlie cringe. I was trying to get my body and arm to frame the side and bottom of the photo, while shooting it to look like it was coming from my point of view.
I went back to bed after reading scriptures and this is what I woke up to the second time. I was initially trying to get a shot of me and Charlie together, but Joseph was so excited to see Charlie that I started taking pictures of them instead and I got this one. I don't like the grainy-ness, but I think it's because of the lighting situation as well as movement, on their part and mine. They are so adorable together, though!
This is just a simple shot of how randomly I get distracted at my computer. I was researching maps of Panem when I was supposed to be getting everyone their cereal for breakfast. I like the way that I framed it around the computer, and I feel like the clutter on my desk helps create a story, where there really doesn't seem to be one, rather than distracting the eye.
Annabelle eating her yogurt with two spoons. I love the way that she is slightly off-center and the yogurt is sitting in the corner, but my messy house really distracts in this photo. It can be hard to get clean, un-distracting photos in my house...
I went to an essential oils class last night and the kids wanted me to put some on them this morning. I took extra time to make sure everything on the floor was moved out of the shot for this and I told Annabelle how to position and hold her feet. I like the way this came out a lot.
Waiting in the car for Mitchell. I just liked the look of the rain on the windshield.
Another shot of waiting in the car. I like that I was actually able to get the camera to focus on Smith's and not the raindrops.
Kids and umbrellas in front of Best Buy. I love the way the are having fun in this, I just wish I'd gotten all of Joseph's umbrella in the photo. It's so hard when they move so much, though!
Researching cameras at Staples. For a boring store photo, this came out pretty nicely.
We went to Barnes and Noble, too, and I decided to get a shot as we were driving away. I think the sunlight coming from behind the store actually worked out great.
Playing with Baby Charlie. He was having tummy time on my chest, so I held the camera right in front of my face. I love the close up of this, and I was able to keep all the background clutter out by being so close.
After a lot of afternoon/evening stress, ending my day with my first Xanax in nearly a month. I thought about having the bottle tipped and the pills poring out, but then I was worried people would think I'm overdosing or something. So I decided to only have one out of the bottle because that's all I took. I cleaned my desk so that I could get a very clean and simple shot. And I think it came out alright.
Tomorrow I might see about putting Photoshop on my computer and trying some stuff out with that.
