“A portrait of my daughter, once a week. every week, in 2014.”

Poet: doing her best at being angry. “Look at me mum, I so angry. You take picture. Oh-K?”
 
She’s started to show a genuine interest in being photographed but usually runs out of the frame and exclaims “I see! I see!” before I’ve even taken the photograph. But then somedays she’ll flat out refuse to have her photo taken and will turn her head with the utmost attitude and simply say “No”.
For a nice change we got our photo taken together this week (thanks, Luisa!). I’ll share some shots soon.
For those of you who may have missed my post earlier this week, I’d love to introduce you to my newest collaboration: Wholehearted. Pop over there to see what it’s all about (it’s had a great response!). If you would like to be featured in our weekly collective – a selection of user-submitted images – simply add #wholeheartedjournal to your photos on instagram. What photos? Any image that captures “motherhood”- the joy, exhaustion, delight, growth, challenge and love.
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………..
This week I discovered some new blogs via your links – such a treat. Clearly Fox in Socks is quite intriguing to sweet little Rowan / Kelli captures mood so well (baby feet, too) / I adore this portrait of a family and the landscape – because isn’t our environment such a big part of our lives / Bijou and Remy – happy and sad – both beauties / and finally, Stella and Theo – their mama always takes the most authentic, intimate photos. Love.

    Ha ha…if my little guy is aware that I am taking photos, he always wants to see too! His favourite is to take video selfies and watch them repeatedly!

    I love it – so funny when they announce things like that. My daughter can often be heard proclaiming loudly in the library "Mummy, I'm a bit shy today!", while hiding in my coat and then running around seeming anything but.
