The ALMIGHTY Pug

So what do you do when you get a DSLR camera worth hundreds of dollars for Christmas?!?

You take pictures of your dog.... obviously!

There will be more to come. I LOVE playing with this thing. I even had the bf playing around with it today too.

old blue

Since I've been taking pictures at my parent's house lately (due to lack of space at my own) I've enlisted some new help. Introducing Old Blue, one of my new photography partners.

Old Blue rather enjoys traveling and small, non-boxy objects. He's really given some nice character to some otherwise dull shoe pictures ;)

i donut know

Just try and tell me you don't like this picture. I mean, what's not to like?

Let's just say this is another one of my kiddos photo projects {alternative portrait}.

Some possible titles?

"I told you stop playing with your food"

"You are what you eat"

"In your face!"

Come up with your own folks!

turn your back on me.

My students just finished a short photography project today. They had 4 options to choose from and I'd like to show some more of their work in the future.

This particular option was the "alternative portrait" in which they could take the idea of a traditional portrait and tweak it per say. I thought this idea was one of the best in the class.

All I hope is that you enjoy the fact that some kiddos are still going strong in the creativity department.

Blueberry Behind the Scenes

Where there's a picture, there's a Blueberry! She was there all weekend to help my with my photographs.  However, she was quite tired and this is right before she decided to take a nap. I know there are many other Etsians out there who have the pets by their side!

Photos on the Mind

I'm starting this photography project tomorrow and my head is spinning as to how I want to do this. I taught a photo class a couple of years ago and the projects turned out nicely. Now I just have to tweak the lesson to suit stubborn 8th grade personalities.

Flex Your Lens

My kiddos at school earned some outside free time. So I sent them on a "compositional" photography scavenger hunt. They had a lot of fun with it. Here are some of my favorite pictures of the day. Considering I spent maybe 5 minutes going over these composition techniques, I'm blown away at how good they actually turned out.
