Mckenna swings, 5:35pm.
I wonder when I WON’T be excited to see the submissions every week. I LOVE THIS. And the challenge is working, I have already taken more film or DSLR photos of my kids this month than I did in the whole of 2012.
Also, this is the week I drop off my film! Don’t let me flake out.

the ears. i melt.
I see more intrigue in children like Mckenna. No expression except for the eyes piercing a hidden coded message to my soul – it touches me. It speaks more than laughter.
My daughter is often expressionless because of her autism. Asking her to smile makes her smile but its not a happiness smile. So I make do with her lost little face and accept this as her happiness. On the very rare occasion that she does smile naturally, I never have my camera to hand or if I do, she never holds it naturally long enough to capture it.
Its taken me a long time to accept that. Its so precious to me now.
Aahhh, I just love this. Those ears are too much….especially with the yellow boots! I am feeling very inspired.
I love these Tara! So sweet.
it’s working for me, too :) love these, tara!
I love this and thankyou for being a part of this group, so that we get to look inside the beautiful images that you all see!very inspiring!
LOVING how you played with the dark in that first shot. I really feel like that’s the next step for me. Can’t wait to see the film results! I seriously need to renew my Costco membership so I can get my couple rolls developed too.
she is awesome. reminds me of my sweet alexa
Thank you for sharing this look into your life with us. As always I’m inspired, and LOVE your work!
I see you in her in that second shot! And man, is she growing up!
LOVE this project!
I love this new series…I was so happy to see ryan’s work again too!! : )
there’s a lovely tenderness to these photos. i’m really enjoying your ‘you are my wild’ series.
so . . . did you drop off your film?? :)
Love the ears. And oh how I wish I had been a photographer when my progeny were little….well I will just have to concentrate on the grandchildren when they finally show up.
I think Mckenna and Kennedy are kindred spirits. That first shot reminds me of the silhouetted shot I got of Ken in her Mickey ears. Love it.
