Parents, if you want wonderful pictures of your children, never teach them to say "cheese"! Please learn from my mistake or you will have thousands of photos just like mine - squinted eyes, scrunched up noses, clenched teeth, and an image that just screams "say cheez!!!". Join me while I search for that one perfect shot that doesn't conjure up images of dairy products. Oh, and unless you like that *messy* look, you'll probably want to clean their faces before you snap away. I never seem to remember myself.

An imporant sidenote is to make sure you document your life! Recording the little details of the who, what, where, when, & why makes for wonderful stories and captures your life for years to come. Because if you are like me, you'll forget it all 5 minutes later!

POTD Week 25: Windows

She can make my heart stop in a second. She can drive me to the brink of insanity and then instantly fill me with joy. She can warm the coldest day. She can quickly remind me of what is important in life. She can easily amaze me with her carefree innocence. She can melt my heart with just a look. She is everything to me, and then more.

She is the window into my soul.

I like your windows to the soul theme--I had the same idea, but haven't decided yet what my "window" will be. Love the coloring on the last two shots--very unique and golden, goes perfectly with her hair!

She is a real spirit. I love the vintage effect in the last one. It really lends itself to the photo and the emotion.
