Project 365 - Day 6 - June 24, 2014
This. This face. This is the face of a guilty dog! She knows what she did, that's why she's giving me these eyes. Begging me not to take another look at the "surprise" she left on the bathroom floor (you missed the toilet, dog!)...she knows what she did was wrong. She knows she's a naughty dog! But....she also knows that I love her and that her punishment for pooping on my rug won't be too severe ;)...

Project 365 - I'm back!!!
So...I've realized that I haven't posted since May, and we're already almost completely through June...I know, I know, I suck!! I think I have good reason though (maybe?)...We celebrated my husband's 25th birthday on May 31st and then I've had a few photo sessions this month (June)...a newborn session, a couples session and then I'm finishing the edits from a past family session (it took them a little while to pick their favorites for printing!) so as you can see, I've been a little busy!
Today for my project 365 photo I was actually planning on doing a self-portrait (I did my makeup, attempted my hair, and wore something "nice") but no matter what I did, I just couldn't seem to capture the essence of me...
That's when I realized that "me" isn't getting all dressed up with my hair and makeup done. I don't do it on a regular basis (these days it's just on Sundays for church and Thursdays for "date night" with my husband) so when trying to really capture my essence, why would I get all "gussied up" if it's not something I do every day?!...With that being said, I AM a professional makeup artist (learned from the best in Hollywood!) as well as a licensed cosmetologist, so I really DO have a love and passion for hair and makeup, however, right now I'm also a mom to 2 sweet little girls who deserve my love and attention a little bit more than my hair and face (I DO think it's important to take care of your hair and skin, even if you're not making yourself up lol)...
Anyway...I changed out of those "nice" clothes and instead put on a shirt that I probably wear once a week due to comfort, as well as some of my workout pants and pulled my hair up into it's usual ponytail...Then, instead of "posing" I grabbed my 10 month old daughter (my 2 1/2 year old was off running errands with her dad, otherwise she'd be in these photos too!) and let the camera shoot away while on it's timer...Now THIS is ME. Mom who doesn't always have everything put together, whose house is usually a mess, with dinner being late to get to the table (if at all!) but who loves her children more than anything! This is ME.
I may try again in the future, to get a nice self-portrait, but for now, this will do. :)
