]]>I ♥ Faces Weekly Photo Challenge-Week 28http://ltphotography.squarespace.com/blog/2009/7/21/i-faces-weekly-photo-challenge-week-28.htmlLisa Turner Photography2009-07-21T20:55:11Z2009-07-21T20:55:11Z   

I Heart Faces is a great photo website with tons of tutorials and fun contests like this. Anyone, pro or amateur can enter.  Check them out here!

Theme:  Feet Week!  So instead of the usual "faces"-we are entering photos of FEET.  I love feet.  Puppy feet (paws) and little kid feet especially.  These feet are my daughter Sara's, and this image was taken at the height of her sparkly shoe wearing phase, when she was 2 1/2.  We wore them every. single. day.  The sparklies were all over my house and the shoes made her feet smell like something out of a horror movie.  BUT-I can look back now and think fondly on those days...when the most important thing to her was wearing those shoes.

Getting back into the swing of things here...school starts in 8.27 days!!!  Changes coming...new blog and website!! Yay me!

And a whole lot of this:

And my mother-in-law was here, and then we were in Vail, and don't even get me started on the puppy.  But sessions continue...and I will post some new images soon!  For now, enjoy your summer....

This is a "Just for Fun" category...so it can really be anything.  But the other category was "Wedding Bells" and we all know I don't do weddings.  So there are no winners this week in "Just for Fun" but hey, why not.  I really wanted to do last week's "Let's Hear it for the Boys" (and now that song will be in your head ALL day) but my internet was being cranky...and I missed the deadline.  But now we are up and running thanks to my wonderful new Apple Time Capsule!  Anyone can enter the contest!  Check them out here!

This is my daughter Sara last spring...who did NOT want to have her picture taken.  Can't you tell?

And I can't stop looking at it!  2nd time photographing this little one and she is cuter than ever! Gorgeous, gorgeous eyes!

]]>just beat ithttp://ltphotography.squarespace.com/blog/2009/6/30/just-beat-it.htmlLisa Turner Photography2009-06-30T14:24:59Z2009-06-30T14:24:59ZYes I know I need to post some new pics!  But first, we need to discuss this:

Ok, ok, I know that everyone says they are MJ's #1 Fan.  But really, I am.  Anyone who knows me knows I love me some Michael Jackson.  Not crazy, weird looking, androgynous Michael but Off the Wall Thriller Michael. My bedroom walls were covered in his posters.  I performed a dance routine to "Billie Jean" in the 7th grade talent show.  I went to the Jacksons Victory Tour (a VERY big deal for Jacksonville, FL in 1983) wearing earrings that were a glove in one ear, and a rhinestone in the other.  I planned my entire days around the premiere of his videos.  No tivo people...you had to BE IN FRONT OF THE TV WHEN IT AIRED!!!!  And you had to see the WORLD PREMIERE on mtv!  Any good party DJ knows that to really get the party started you have to play Michael Jackson Thriller, Song 1-"Wanna Be Starting Something."  Always, always a crowd pleaser.

On Saturday night some good friends came over and we played my MJ playlist on my ipod over and over...in tribute.  We will miss you, Michael Jackson.  But your music lives on...

This little guy wakes me up at 5:30am EVERY DAY!  And anyone who knows me, knows I must really love this dog to get up that early.  Because I am NOT, I repeat NOT, a morning person.  7am is too early, if we really get down to it.  And now I would be ecstatic for 7am.  There are messes, and more messes, and chewing...but isn't he worth it?

Check them out at: iheartfaces.blogspot.com

This week there is a kids and adult category, and the theme is Sepia Tone. Well, I hardly ever photograph any adults (without their kids!) and in the interest of getting this done before the deadline, I will just enter a kids photo.  Those who read this blog have seen this one before...but when I saw sepia this image popped into my head.

Kids Entry:

Didn't that turn out great?
