It’s all in the Details

Photobucket

I found myself in a photo rut.  I used to be the queen of pictures, and had scrapbooks of all of my kids up to date and perfectly organized.  It’s funny how a photo business, 3 kids, a pregnancy, and just life in general seems to change all of that.  I was reading one of my favorite photography blogs, and it inspired me to see what I might consider mundane, or repetitive things around my house as beautiful.  Davina takes a picture a day, and occasionally shares them on her blog.  She doesn’t line up her 4 kids in front of the pretty rose bush in the backyard and ask them to smile pretty.  Instead she looks around her home at what is already there, and documents it.  It might be her daughter yawning in the morning, or the breakfast table all dirty after everyone has eaten.  I’m going to try hard to do something similar, although I already know it won’t be everyday.  Our lives are so full, and sometimes I think we miss out on seeing what is all around us.
