A Year In The Life...

Back in 2008, I embarked on an adventure. I took 365 self portraits! A full year of getting in front of the camera every day.

As a photographer, I spend most of my time BEHIND the camera, so the project forced me to have a few shots of myself. I loved the project, but it was a bit tough trying to figure out a new way to take a photo of myself every day.



Which brings me to the real reason for this post.

November 15, 2009 I took a photo of Skyler. I'd intended it to be for our Christmas cards, but it ended up kicking off a 2nd year of insanity! This time, it was more a project to document my life for a year. Our family.



So I've completed my year. 365 consecutive photographs. And I thought I'd share a few of my favorites with you :)  (It is kind of fun to see how much Skyler has changed and grown in the past year! )



Day 44, I got this beautiful photo of Skyler. (No real story behind it, she's just too cute!)

Day 51 we brought home Presephone from the local humane society.


Day 112, I turned 28. My Great Grandmother Celebrated her 100th birthday!

Day 212 I returned to Camp Kitaki for the first time in almost a decade!


Day 217, Skyler turned 2!

Day 293 we surprised Ryan's Parents with a 40th Anniversary Party!



We also had some not so happy moments in the year, but I feel they are worth mentioning because they are part of what helps us grow and move forward.

Day 19 I came home to find that our house had been broken into.


Day 72, Skyler had her first Ear Infection.
