Linked 52: Anger

Well this week’s theme had me stumped. I had NO idea what to shoot. But then as I was thinking about it more I started thinking about myself and how I deal with anger. I am not really a yelling mom, but I get upset. To me it’s almost that I get trapped in a bad mood and then struggle to get out of it. So I started thinking about how I get out of those feelings.

Baking something tasty always lifts my spirits. (and having fun photographing it!)

Taking my kids out to do something fun. Like Eli at the fire station.

This little boys smiles lift my heart.

Seeing my children interact lovingly.

A nice walk outside really makes me feel happy and alive and thankful.

Baby Jaxson

This is the third Elford baby I’ve taken pictures of…. And it gets a little more exciting every thing with all the characters Tisha and Scott have. They have their hands full:)

Congrats guys!

Read it. Loved it.

First up, if you haven’t entered yet, go enter my contest!!! Down two posts to here!

 

My friend Brooke links up articles that relate to photography each week and I really love it. I’ve thought about doing it for a while and well today I’m not just thinking about it, but doing it!

1. Love loved this lesson here about printing photos. SO true. In fact we got pictures taken when Eli was small and the DVD got lost and  then just recently found and guess what? It’s all scratched and it wouldn’t load in my computer. Totally makes me sad. I have some printed but I’d still love access to them!! Print your pictures!!’

2. Some great tips here about shooting selfies. Something totally scary and thrilling to me.

3.  Speaking of Brooke, she did a GREAT post about a topic I’ve thought a LOT about. I know I’ve taken some time off for my baby but I’ve thought about not shooting anything paid for a year. Taking a break from it all and just falling in love with photography. Saving the best for my family.

4. A free cheat sheet about family photography here.

5.  An interesting article about your about page, which made me think I need to change mine:)
