Thank you Amy and Angie for inviting me to be a new CONTRIBUTOR!! I am humbled, terribly flattered, and not all that sure I qualify…but I’ll give it a whirl! And have to give a HUGE thanks to my photography group for teaching me all I know. I would be lost without them! Make sure you check out some of their work, Michelle (KK), Donna, April, Cyndi, Jennie…they are A*MAZING, true photographers with huge hearts!
OK, now, onto the PHOTOGRAPHY part of the post, which is why we’re all here:
My kids entry:
My handsome birthday boy in his FIRST swim meet!
My adult entry:
(OK, yes, I’m aware you should enter ONE or the other, not BOTH…yes, it’s my FIRST entry as a contributor and I’m already breaking the rules…sad huh? Cry for me….but HOW could I choose between the 2??)
I do not qualify to enter the contests, I just play along now for fun! Please check out the rest of the entries though!




















Ooh congratulatulations contributor
Nice to see the seriously best competition out of the way… hahaha!
And of course you get to showcase two fab “entries”, I too was torn between 2 photos, the rugby shot and my three year old running the Fancy Dress Race in a ladies hat complete with handbag and spectacles.
Nope – not sure I could have chosen between those two either – they are both fabulous – as always!!
Congrats Contributor! And these are both incredible, I’m glad you broke the rules!
Great entries and congrats on being a contributor. Love the swim meet photo! The wrestling photo looks, well, painful….
It’s okay to break the rules sometimes, right?
I am so excited that you’re a contributor… you’re a perfect fit for I Heart Faces. Great shots, as always… I know to expect the bar to be set really high over here, and I love it!
I love, love, love the swim photo.
Congrats on being asked to be a contributor.
both are so fantastic. you have great talent!
Glad to see Amy and Angie snatched you up as a contributor! Your photos are always wonderful.
Love the adult selection.
I love the description of you at I heart Faces, “child wrangler”! I too am a child wrangler! Lovely shots!

Those are both great pictures…I don’t know how I would choose either. Congrats on becoming a contributer!
Beautiful shots…both of them. What an awesome honor to be part of the I heart faces team. Yeah you!
These are both so awesome, really well done! Many happy congrats on becoming a contributor!!
Wow- both are fantastic! And congrats on the invite- by the looks of these photos, you’ve definetly earned it!
Have you been taking lessons from Boybarian Dad? I tell ya. Become a contributor and it goes straight to your head.
You’re right. These are both so great, who could choose? And since contributor’s can’t win, you might as well go rogue and share both!
Congrats! And like I say every time… is this at least ONE TEENY WEENY step closer to making you realize that you have a God-given talent that you should keep using???
And it came just a week early, eh? Cuz I thought that diving pic was a winner for sure!
And how come you didn’t use that “what are they doing, Mommy?” shot for the karate one?
bwaahaahaa! love ya
Congrats. on becoming a contributor! Both shots are wonderful. The bottom one looks painful–lol.
How exciting that you are now a contributor!! Congrats on a well-deserved honor. Your photos are always so amazing!
