My current favorite photo is one of my baby girl from about a month ago. She is two months old in the picture and her daddy is holding her up and she has a grin as big as her beautiful little face. Makes me smile everytime I look at it.

There are actually two that I am completely head over heals for right now.
The first is a photo from my wedding 4.5 years ago. The photographer caught a private moment between Tim and I when he was leaning down and kissing my temple. The way he composed the shot and caught the golden autumn light so perfectly just makes me swoon. That picture alone makes me so glad I spent the extra money to buy the rights to those photos - I would totally wallpaper our home in that photo if only Tim would let me :)
The other photo that I am crazy about right now is from a trip we took to California last spring. It is a photo of my 3 year old daughter stepping onto a beach for the first time and taking in the sight of the ocean. She has this expression of pure magic on her face. I could stare at that photo for hours.

My current favorite photo is one of those where you extend your arm out to include yourself in the photo and it's of two girlfriends and I taken on a night out of dinner and visiting. We have known each other for 13 plus years...we met in Lamaze class for our firstborns and there is nothing like knowing these women. I love having their friendship in my life. And I love that we finally got together and caught up on life again.

I have 2 kids just 21 months apart so my youngest doesnt have a lot of pictures of just him. The other day I took him to a playground and got a photo of him with a big smile.

my favorite photo right now is any of them consisting of my little boy (9mos.) getting into stuff. I can't pick just one. He loves to come out to my work area and pull everything off the shelves. I've had to do a lot of rearranging lately!!

My favorite photo at the moment is of my Mama. She had no idea of I was shooting pictures of her so it made for the perfect moment. I love it when she has no idea I am capturing her. She thinks she is not photogenic but I think my Mama is the most beautiful woman I know. She was standing next to our garage which made for the best background, unintentionally. I love mistakes or happy accidents!! Any back to the photo. Mama was laughing at the moment I captured her and to this day I know I probably will not be able to make this moment up every again and I am happy I took it and have it to enjoy forever. I love it laugh and this picture show it off!! :D

my current favourite photo is a photo of my niece i took this summer - she is holding out a flower in front of her...the flower is in focus and she is blurred...
i think what i love most about the picture is how i was feeling when i took it - we had just driving over 30 hours to get there and managed to surprise her...such a great moment!

My current favorite photo is of my 10 year old son sitting on a boat, smiling at the camera, wearing sunglasses and a life vest, on his way to his first half day fishing charter. I can tell how excited he is, and he had a fantastic time.
