The Purpose, the Journey, and the Fun along the way

Here we are, two moms who love our cameras and miss our college art classes and colleagues. With a family it can be difficult to find time for the creative process. Emily and I are using this blog as a way to have fun, work on our photography, keep each other accountable, and be creative!

Each Monday one of us will post a challenge for us both to complete and post a response to by Friday that week. Over the weekend, if time permits each of us will also critique the other's work.

We hope to use this blog as a way to grow together as photographers as we continue to grow as mothers.

If you happen to stumble upon our blog, and want to join in, feel free! Just post your response, with a link to your photos in the MckLinky link for that week. Challenges stay open for three weeks after they are posted.

Challenge #22

Good morning all! I would like to offer a warm and hearty welcome to our newest contributor, Bschwalbz! It's really exciting to have someone new joining in the fun.

Okay onto this week's challenge! As many of you know Wedding season is upon us, which is keeping me pretty busy on the weekends. Last night I had the pleasure of attending a wedding instead of shooting it. I thought today we'd do a wedding inspired challenge based on that old little rhyme that brides often stick to when planning the details of what they will wear. I'm sure you are all familiar with it:

Something Old,
Something New,
Something Borrowed,
Something Blue.

The Rules:
1.) Four images
2.) Let's steer away from images that actually have to do with weddings, use your imagination with this one. Let's get outside the box a little.
3.) B/w or colour
4.) Photo Submissions due by Sat. July 4th.

Have fun everyone and have a great week! It was so nice to see everyone's submissions this weekend!

  1. Hey! I know I'm SUPER early, but I'm going on a trip tomorrow so I figured I'd get it all done tonight before I go. Have a great week!

  2. Hi! I'm Emily's brother, Josh, and she introduced me to this photo challenge and blog spot, and since I am now living with her, I will likely be a regular to this challenge. So here's mine!
