Happy Birthday to I Heart Faces

by Sharon on January 11, 2010

Over at I ? Faces they are having a BIG OL’ BIRTHDAY PARTAY celebrating one year of photography awesomeness.

I have to give a big hip hip hooray for this great site, since I’ve learned more about photography in the last 5 months than I ever dreamed of, due in large part to these terrific folks.

And in celebration, they’ve asked photographers to submit their favorite photo since December 2009.

Now keeping in mind that I’m a mom not a photographer, I probably don’t really have what it takes to play along…

But I also didn’t want to miss out on the fun…. and what good is a party if you don’t have a few crashers?!

So in the spirit of what have I got to lose anyway? I present you with my hands down best, probably should print out and hang on my wall, LIFE magazine will be calling any moment now, favorite picture of the last two months…

Your little man looks like he is ready for another round of sledding! Huge mittens and all! I love his expression!

I LOVE your picture. Love. Love! LOVE it! I think you are a fabulous Mommy PHOTOGRAPHER! Isn't that the joy of I Heart Faces. You don't have to be a super star to enter or WIN : ). I love when people just like you and me win the contests because there is lots of talent out there. Clearly you have a great dose of talent! Awesome picture. PS Maybe you should call Time and submit your picture!

Even if LIFE magazine forgets to call, you should still hang this on your wall! What a great picture…and I just love his casual body language like sledding is something he's been doing for 'years' ;D

Are you kidding me? I think what I LOVE about I heart faces is that the majority of us on here are Mommy Photogs, and I love, love, love seeing pics of everyones kids. Your little guy looks so peaceful and content here. I can see why this is one of your faves of the season!
