i {heart} faces "Innocent Wonder"

I also think of this picture as "Love At First Sight."

This week's i♥faces challenge is Innocent Wonder and this picture absolutely captures that for me. This was when my eldest boy very first laid eyes on his newest baby brother. He was captivated with awe and full of love and tenderness.

Winter Wonderland | Landscape Photography

Between Christmas and New Year's we visited my family in Spokane, WA. We had a great time and I enjoyed one morning taking pictures of everything freshly turned to a winter wonderland. Since it rarely snows like this in Salem, I was more than happy to take advantage of this timely snowstorm!

Here are several pictures from my morning photographing the snowscapes and some from our drive home the next day.

i {heart} faces "Smile"

I'm shocked at how long it's been since I last participated in an i♥faces challenge! Not for not wanting to, I've actually had pictures prepared for some of the missed themes and even a draft ready to publish for "sillhouette" but somehow Monday and Tuesday come along and I'm swamped and it just doesn't happen!

Finally, I have a post for this week's theme, Smile. This is definitely one of my favorite smile photos. It makes me want to laugh right along with him!

O Family | Sublimity OR Family Photography

I knew I would have fun with this family when Sarah first contacted me. They were having an early Christmas with her in-laws and wanted to surprise them with a photoshoot that day for their Christmas present! Such a fun gift idea! We met up that afternoon and the rain even (mostly) cooperated!
