i didn’t jump on any 365/52 or whatever trendy bandwagon photographers start January 1st to motivate themselves to take more pictures at home. i love the idea of taking creative photos of my own children, and just shooting for myself in general, but let’s get real. the LAST thing i need to add to my schedule is an additional stess and a fictional deadline to make me feel accomplished, or more likely, a failure. for all those photogs and momtogs who are keeping up with your annual picture-a-day challenge, that is truly awesome and i admire you. it just ain’t for me. so when i do bust out my camera in the presence of my rugrats, it’s an event in itself to celebrate. today was one of those days. i just took a couple snaps at bathtime with my little old backup camera, a canon rebel, using my nifty fifty (50mm 1.8) and a speedlite. and i kind of love the results. simple and sweet moments of my favorite boys in the whole world.

      So sweet! I'd try this with my dog, but she doesn't look quite as adorable in the tub 😉
