you capture :: something new

in you capture

Beth. I don’t know if it’s because you’re pregnant, but you constantly challenge us, and I’m exhausted from having to think. Don’t you know that I just want to sit and let my brain turn to mush when I’m not playing with Emma? Come on, now!

*wink wink*

This week’s challenge was to shoot something we’ve never shot before. I could have just taken pictures of Emma and been like, “I’ve never taken a picture of my 28 month and 13 day old kid,” and then, “I’ve never taken a picture of my 28 month and 14 day old kid.” Etc.

But I did try to get out and take pictures of things I’ve never shot before.

You always do such an amazing job, Keli. For real. Can you come to my house and teach me to be as cool as you are? Pretty please? Bring Emma, too, because I think she’s adorable and I’m sure she’d fall in love with BJ and then we could eventually have some great wedding photos of our tow heads.

Anyway, a girl can dream, right?

p.s. Did that apple fall from a tree in your yard? So jealous.

These are so amazing. I love them all. The apple is so peaceful and autumn like. The carousal has GORGEOUS bokeh. LOVE the bird on the head.

You are so awesome.
