Since doing PL for the first time last year, I love candid photos so much now. I always thought you had to have everyone looking at the camera smiling nicely. Not so anymore. I love capturing someone in the middle of what they are doing. Thanks for a chance to win. I'm all signed up but would welcome a reimbursement!!

My favorite everyday photo is one of me as a baby with my father. He was on leave from Vietnam (unfortunately to help my mom after the unexpected death of her father when I was 6 weeks old), and it was the first time he had seen me. He's eating ice cream on the couch while looking at me sitting next to him. He is wearing these shorts that he probably wore until they started falling apart. Thanks for the chance to win. I am all signed up too--I have a full library of Ella books, in fact!

My favorite photo is one of my husband and three daughters all gathered around him as he flips through his "Father of the Year" photo book that we made for him. Such moments of pure family togetherness make my heart swoon!

My favorite photo is one of all my boys with their arms around each other at my youngest son's graduation - actually, just about any photo of my guys is my favorite! =) Thank you for the great giveaway!

I'm excited to participate in the Take Twelve. I think my favorite pictures are just little snapshots of Kennedy doing his crazy things during the day. Either that or pics of the two Boston Terriers we have. LOL.
Congrats on getting to be part of the team!

My favorite everyday shot...is out my back door...to the gardens, deer, the meditation garden my husband built for me, my gardeners (husband and daughter), etc.
I read about the giveaway on OLW board and I'd like to get more involved with these online classes and projects.

Popped over from PBC Twelve. Congrats on the design team. How fun! 12 photos could be challenging, but I think that the kit will help. My favorite everyday photos are when you use them to create a series (shoes, food, views from the window...).

My favorite everyday photo is my feather baby in a bowl of fruit loops.

I'm not sure if I have a favorite "everyday" photo ... but I did this last year -- only I took 11 photos on the 11th in 2011 {and then scrapped them on 8.5 x ELEVEN paper! lol.} I love those papges! It would be so much fun to win this! Thanks for the chance!
Posted by: Pidgen | January 11, 2012 at 07:38
Love it! So this year will you be using 12x12 paper? :)

Favorite everyday photo: my second son, when he was four, working intensely with some legos behind the couch, kneeling on the floor, top of his head resting against the back of the couch, so focused and in his own world . . . sunlight making his t-shirt and hair gleam. :) I love candid/non-posed shots! Here's hoping we win . . . thanks so much!
