A—The start of the A to Z Challenge with the letter A for …
Today begins the 26 day, A to Z challenge. What is this? It’s a 26 day blog challenge. That means, for 26 days, in April, I will be blogging.
I’ve chosen a theme of photography because, as most of my fans, friends and family know, I’ve been a professional photographer for about 7 years. But … like the old saying ‘the cobbler’s kids have no shoes’, the professional photographer rarely seems to take time to just shoot for fun.
So that’s what I’m going to do. On top of that, in creating images for this little project, I spent a lot of time with my kids, getting their help picking out stuff that works for each letter of the alphabet. Processing and preparing and finishing them was all on me, including whatever crazy/simple/fun frame I used—again, something I haven’t done in ages.
In all honesty, just playing with my camera, practicing settings and finding ways to use flash held by my 8 year olds hasn’t been something I’ve done. So no, these aren’t photos to sell or put up in a gallery or museum, but just … for fun.
So to start … the letter ‘A’ otherwise known as ‘the girl named after Abby Lockhart from ER’. 🙂
Tomorrow … the letter B!
But before then, join in the A to Z giveaway!
What a great pic! I remember holding my shirt up … er down like that when I was a kid.
Thanks! I had to do the same!
I’m really excited that the Photography Challenge has started! It is so great to find other Photography bloggers. Great picture! Happy April.
Oh what a great idea for your theme Aimee! I’m doing the challenge too but decided to go theme-less. Unless random counts as a theme 🙂
Great photo by the way. Looks like yall were having a blast!

Hehehehe, even when hanging upside down, I swear that girl still looks like she’s plotting her next big scheme and how NOT to take the fall for it. 😉
Always plotting. Always. 😀
What a fun photograph! I’m also taking photographs for the A-Z challenge but with no theme, well it will be related to me in some way..I shall be following your A-Z challenge! Happy A-Zing!
I remember those care free days. Love the picture.
Care free … that’s right! Thanks!
Love the pic! Funny thing, I remember doing the same thing and having to hold my shirt up (or is that down).
I think we’ve ALL done that! LOL
Oh, last year my theme for the A-Z challenge was photography. I LOVE your photo

Getting into a writing pattern everyday and writing better is my motivation.
