This week in pictures: Family fun and wintry weather

25 February 2012 Mothership Photography

I took a LOT of pictures this week. I had every intention of writing a separate blog post about at least two days’ worth of these photos, but it’s just been so busy that I didn’t have the chance to get to my keyboard. So be warned – this is going to be long! On [...]

This week in pictures: Melty, gassy and flashy

18 February 2012 Project 365

Wow, I wish I’d realized a year or three ago how much easier it is to take a photograph each day when you’re relying on your iPhone instead of your camera! There’s something a little bit more playful about the pictures I’m finding with my iPhone, and the fact that I’m using a lot of [...]

This week in pictures: “The camera is an instrument that teaches people how to see without a camera.”

11 February 2012 Project 365

I‘ve still been taking more pictures with my iPhone than with my camera this week, partly for convenience but largely just because I am a sucker for the shiny new toy. I like the way I can go and revisit some favourite places and shots and get something a little different from them, like this [...]

Portraits for your loved ones?

7 February 2012 Mothership Photography

You know what would make a really great Valentine’s Day gift? A gift certificate for a family portrait! To celebrate love and families, I’m happy to offer this time-limited deal: a custom porch-portrait mini-session at last year’s price of just $100. (Yes, prices will be going up this spring.) So what’s a mini-session? Here’s what [...]

This week in pictures: “We have only this moment, sparkling like a star in our hand-and melting like a snowflake…”

4 February 2012 Project 365

It’s a little bit ironic that now that I have a more comfortable versatile carrying strap for my Nikon, I’ve fallen in love with taking pictures with my easily-pocketable and much less bulky iPhone — no carrying strap required! My parents got me the Black Rapid camera strap I’d requested for Christmas. It took me [...]

Is there anything more adorable than newborn twins?

29 January 2012 Mothership Photography

As I mentioned earlier, I had the chance last week to help out during a portrait session for adorable nine-day-old twin baby boys with Ottawa photographer Christine Denis. I finally had the time to sort through my pictures and pick out a few more favourites. One of the best parts of working with Christine (aside [...]

This week in pictures: The one with the newborn twins!

28 January 2012 Project 365

Oops, has it really been a week since I’ve put up a new blog post? That has to be a new record for me. Sorry about that, I’ve been knocked on my keister by a cold and a migraine and kindergarten registrations and the preparations for birthday season, which begins here this weekend. I did [...]

This week in pictures: in which I am the icon of the downfall of modern photography (no, really!)

21 January 2012 Project 365

My friend Heather thinks I owe you a retraction. Remember this post, where I congratulated myself for my level-headedness and maturity in managing to pull myself out of a frenzy of consumeristic covetousness and NOT impulse-buy a new iPhone 4S? She thinks I owe you a retraction because I went out and actually did buy [...]

20 January 2012 Meta-blogging

Mommyblogger, a photo by Dani_Girl on Flickr. Cuz yanno, sometimes a picture does say it so much better than a thousand words could.
