I heart faces-people's choice

This week's challenge is people choice with an image taken this summer. I just love this picture of my friend. The saying "happy girls are the prettiest" is very true. I think she is gorgeous. Be sure to check out the other amazing entries at I Heart Faces.

I heart faces-touch of sun

This week's challenge is touch of sun. I just loved the effect of the sun on this picture. Sun flare can be so scary at first, but I have learned to love it. Be sure to check out the other amazing entries at iheartfaces.

Cultivating Confidence-An encouraging word



I am playing catch up at home. I have been away on vacation and am getting back to taking pictures and catching up on the blog. I asked a few friends about getting their picture taken for my blog series and they were all feeling a little blah, which I totally understand. A lot of my friends are moms and work. It is hard to strike a balance between all the things you think you have to do and taking care of yourself is usually last on the list. I just wanted to tell you this--I know I am not perfect, I know I am not the smartest person, I know I am not the best photographer, I know I am no supermodel. I am finally learning to be okay with that. I try my best to better myself and learn more and hope to encourage others along the way. We all have something to contribute. It's up to you to use what you have been given.
