Every year we make toffee! Here is a portion of this years supply. It’s our gift to family and friends. A labor of love.

We were out playing in the Tree House and I had to go check on something and J was waiting for me to come back for the snack she had prepared. I liked the view through window as she was looking out the window!

Seahorse Lamp

I have no idea how long we’ve owned this lamp, but this is the first time I’ve tried to photograph it. I liked the textures and shapes.

My son helped me with today’s photo. I thought it was a snow plow, I know I live in the desert. It is not a snow plow, it’s a grader. I now have to head to the store and purchase more salt!

Portrait after the Christmas Program

My Son wasn’t happy about this portrait, but I was able to grab a fun one, nonetheless!

My son doesn’t like wearing a sweater and tie but he does look cute when he does!

Fun Portrait with Bokeh!

Photo a Day 343/366

My daughter sat for a few portraits in front of the tree! This was mid afternoon with a decent amount of daylight coming in the window at camera right… I added a bit of fill flash from my flash unit angled towards the wall on the camera left..  I did shoot this wide open at 2.8 to ensure fun bokeh in the background! I don’t usually shoot portraits wide open but I think this one worked…
