30 pictures in 30 days

When Spence and I got married, my older and much the wiser sister, Jessica, made us a photo slideshow to play at our wedding luncheon and reception. (Sidenote: Thanks Jessica for being so talented!) Spence and I dated for two years before we got married. We did loads of fun things (and a few stupid things). We were together nearly every single day. Yet when it came time to do our photo slideshow we had a measly little stack of about 16 pictures to hand over to Jessica. Sixteen pictures. IN TWO YEARS! I have more than sixteen pictures of my 4-H Dairy Heifers. And I HATED them!! So in a conscious effort to improve my ways I am going to resolve to take more pictures. And to make myself accountable I am going to post a picture a day for the entire month of April. That means 30 pictures in 30 days. Just a few things before I get started: One. I am a self-proclaimed “Queen of Good Intentions”. Thirty days is a long time. We’ll see how I do. Two. I must disclose that I am a highly trained and educated photographer. And by that I mean that I know that you should try to capture the object in the little digital screeny thingamajig (yes, that is the technical term) and then push the button on top of the camera. If I don’t cut off heads and you can see the image somewhat clearly I consider it a good photo shoot. ‘Nuff said! Three. If anybody would like to play along by posting a daily (or weekly, or Wednesday, or whatever) picture on your blog I would love the company. It will be like one of those home business parties but without the awkward feeling that you have to buy something to appease the hostess. Okay, so it would be nothing like a home party. But it would be fun nonetheless. So, here’s to taking more pictures.

I have that professional picture you took of Jace, if you wanted to use that. It really shows off your skills (:

Oh and fun idea, I should do that sometime (though commiting to the 12 days of christmas back in December almost did me in. Everyday is quite a challange). Good luck!

Hmmm.....I might join in on the fun but I have to think about it.

I may be older (when I saw Brad to day he stared at me for a full minute and then said your hair is going gray!!! Nice huh!!) but I am definately not wiser!

Have you seen the shot-a-day blog I sometimes (key word there) post on? It's a lot of fun to look at your day through a possibility of pictures. You're going to love doing this.
