I did however take a photo for it.
Photo Info:100mm f/2.8 • ISO 6400 •1/200

This week{Week 11} the theme was a photo representing a song or a line in a song. The first thing that came to mind was “Let them be little” by Rascal Flatts. I LOVE that song. It brings tears to my eyes. I think about my children and letting them be little, letting them sleep in the middle. I love them so much and I don’t want them to grow up. So if you have little ones… remember to let them be little.

I’m so sorry I have gotten sidetracked and have left you all hanging. I did do these, I just didn’t blog them. I have been spending lots of time with family. You see my husband will be leaving again in less than a month for 3 months. We want to spend as much time with him as we can since we just got him back and it hasn’t been enough time for us. *Joy Of Love had to be dropped because I just didn’t have time.

xoxo Kristi

I MUST have my Diet Coke first thing in the morning! I drink it all the time…. you could say I’m having a long term love affair with Diet Coke. It’s so cool and refreshing. I love the way it fizzes in my mouth. ;) It’s my cure-all. MMmmm Don’t Hate…

I had so many ideas for this week but the weather was either crappy or I just didn’t have time. This morning was super nice so I quickly did what I could… STOP MOTION. I don’t know if this makes sense to anyone but myself, but if it does then WAHOO! Enjoy until next week. Stay Classy world… ;)

We had to take a photo of a complete stranger. This was a GREAT assignment for me. You see, I am shy and not very brave when it comes to people I don’t know. I know I know.. I photograph strangers a lot, but the difference is, is that I have emailed or spoke on the phone with my clients. On one of the most beautiful days we have had in a while I talked my neighbor who is not so shy into taking a walk with me and the kids and find a stranger. We headed out and almost immediately found a subject I wanted  to photograph…. wasn’t brave enough to ask. Not even a minute later  much better stranger…. asked…NO NO NO she said because of her wrinkles. These wrinkles were AMAZING… so timeless. Oh how I wish I could have photographed her. As we kept walking I stopped to do some Macrolicious fun. My daughter fell down and this Japanese lady came out screaming at us telling us “DON’T TOUCH MY HOUSE” ” GO ON GET OUT OF HERE” ” BUNCH OF JAPANESE WORDS”. funny thing is.. we weren’t touching her house, just walking past on the sidewalk. That was interesting to say the least. Moving on…. got shot down a couple more times and then this gentleman ALMOST declined, I finally got him to agree.  I don’t know his story, but it looks like he has had better days.  I wasn’t sure if this was THE photo I wanted to use so we continued on. At the end of our journey was a cute little bakery with the sweetest ladies there. Yep I got a photo of one. They even gave the kids free Japanese donuts. The kids felt so special and we thought it was pretty cool too. Well as it turns out the gentleman’s photo WAS THE photo I felt had a wonderful story behind those eyes. For fun enjoy a few other shots from our journey!


There is a story behind those eyes!


See isn’t she cute!

My silly son

My daughter concentrating
My beautiful daughter in concentration.

My friends daughter!

And this is where the crazy lady chased us....

And that my friends was my Project 52 Week 3 Adventure! Until next time <3

At the last minute last night I remembered and went through several ideas, but either couldn’t do it in the dark or the house or just couldn’t get it to look right.  Now I love my family , that’s obvious so I didn’t incorporate that in this week. I did however photograph 2 things I cannot live without : my camera and diet coke! <3

I’m participating with a bunch of other photographers through PROJECT 52 with
Sandi Bradshaw! She is one of my inspirations I have had for a long time. When she announced she wanted other photographers to join her I was all over that since I was going to do it on my own anyway. This way is much more fun and will keep me accountable for them. This week’s theme (yes were a week behind)  is a self portrait.
