Welcome!

Thank you for visiting my 365 blog!

{If you'd like to visit my portrait photography website, click here.}

I'm a mom of 2 kids and have been a photographer for over 4 years. I decided to task myself with doing a 365 {or rather 366} photo project for 2012. I will take a photograph every day, with my "big girl camera". It will mostly be about my life, portrayed artistically. I want to challenge myself creatively and try new things. I'm excited about where this project will take me and I hope you will follow the journey with me!

365 Project | Day 110 - 117 | Seattle Portrait Photographer

So much fun, so little time!  That's something I wish I could always write to describe my week.  It definitely was in this series of 365 photos, taken from April 19 - 26th.  Well, at least the first half.

The kids were out of school for spring break so we took a little family vacation to the Hood Canal the latter part of the week.  We stayed in a little town called Lilliwaup, about 5 minutes away from Hoodsport, the gateway to the Olympic mountains.  We took a ferry over and drove a little over an hour to get there.  We were right on the water and took advantage of the low tides.  The last two days were gorgeous, with 70 degree weather and calm water.  We touched star fish the size of dinner plates, went clamming, played games, relaxed in the hot tub, and observed our little friend, a baby seal whom Ella promptly named Spotty.  Can you guess why?  If you've never been over there, I strongly recommend going.  You'll have a great time!

The rest of the photos are from life back at home, which you'll hear about below.

Day 110 - Ella enjoying the ferry ride to Southworth, WA.

Day 111 - it was raining cats and dogs outside.  I know, very cliche to say, but true (btw - did you see the latest Office episode regarding this very thing?  Hilarious!)  Anyway, Isaac was working on a puzzle by the big front window (yes, beautiful light) and he was whistling.  Well, have you ever tried whistling when you're smiling?  Its pretty hard to do.  Isaac and I have this little inside joke when we try to whistle and smile, but this time I caught it on camera.  Had to post the series because its so cute!

Day 112 - Tim and I were up late hanging out.  This was our view out the window at 11:30pm.

Day 113 - Spotty paying us a visit on our last day.  I'll be posting more of these on my other blog shortly.

Day 114 - no, not on vacation anymore :).  Back home, and I'm dealing with my lifetime love/hate relationship with my hair and decided to capture its essence with a self-portrait.  I was looking forward to getting it cut the next day.

Day 115 - Isaac and Ella re-discovered the Cars stash on this rainy day.

Day 116- cherry blossom bouquet held by my beautiful girl

Day 117 - I met up with some photographer friends at the Roozengaarde tulip farm in Mount Vernon, WA.  Its absolutely gorgeous right now--if you have time, go check it out!  I'll be posting more of these photos on my other blog so be sure to check it out.

Happy shooting until next week,
Kim
