Photo Hunters~ Self

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

Not too long ago a bloggy friend asked me for a photo of myself in my favorite sunglasses. Being that I am rarely in photos I had to go right home and snap some. As I went about setting up my tripod and camera, Sugar Bear asked me no less than 43 times, "whatcha doin' Mom?" I explained how I was setting up the camera to take some photos of mommy in her sunglasses, and she insisted on being in on the action.



After getting a few quick ones of myself using my handy dandy remote shutter, Sugar could no longer hold her excitement in, and insisted on trying it herself. So I let her have at it.





Then we had a little fun taking some together. We don't do this often enough. She was in charge of pressing the remote shutter, and I set up the shot, so this was a joint effort. :)







Oh, and it isn't a successful photoshoot until you say, "CHEESE!!!!"



Thank you for coming by my blog this week. I am giddy with excitement to see some of YOU! Have a wonderful weekend.

I love her expression in the last shot - I can just hear her!

Great photos! It is nice to see you!

Like you, I am rarely in any pictures because I am always the one taking pictures.

I love this sequence of photographs. They are all great and it's fun how they get increasingly expressive.

How lovely! There's such a sparkle to your prettiness...makes me think that if I ever met you I'd feel right at ease, if that makes any sense.

I love the second to last one- the way she is leaning on you says so much about the bond you share.

Ah, she's got an eye for knowing just when to click that shutter -- just like her talented mommy! :)

Happy Weekend

OMG. These are the Greatest. Photos. Ever.

I'm too bloody vain, but working up to posting something of myself. Anything of myself that doesn't meet my uber-rigid standards of vanity. I worry that Csilla won't even know if I existed. I'm always behind the camera. Thanks for inspiring me to get in front of it.

Colin Campbell said...

I marvel at how many pictures that are taken of this generation of kids. I am also usually the one behind the lens. Oh well.

CRIZ LAI said...

Wonderful shots of Mother and Daughter Corey. It's good to see everyone with a smiling face :)

My post in here Thanks

AnnD said...

OH MY GOSH!!! I seriously can't decide what is more special or moving, the story or the photos! I guess neither would exist without the other. You and Sugar Bear are beautiful! And you need to frame one of the photos of the two of you. They are just perfect.

Michele said...

You both are are very beautiful and I can see how happy you are. It shines through in these photos! Well done.

My favorite is the second to last. Wonderful. And I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE your masthead. I wish I knew how to make those!!!

Those are just beautiful pictures, Corey! I think my fav is the one of Sugar snuggled up against you. So sweet. I think I'd frame that one. And it's so nice to see pics of you. A beautiful girl and her beautiful Mama!

lynn said...

Great photos, you look like you both had such fun with it! I'm exactly like you, I'm always taking the photos and never in them.

holly said...

okay. lovin' the glasses. and nice werkin-the-camera. you gave it some love.

i couldn't get the thrower to sit on my lap like this unless there was the promise of ice cream on it. and i had better get the ice cream ready while he's making his way to my lap or there will be fits.

there are actually a lot of fits, because i don't give him the ice cream very much.

but it doesn't stop him asking. it's the word he says best.

queen of hearts? big camera freak. i have to promise her *no* ice cream. but i buy her almost any book she wants.

Amy said...

Those are just adorable!

I see where she gets her radiant beauty!!

Christina said...

How fun! It's great to get to see you. These are great, and it looks like Sugar is following in her mommy's footsteps as a great photographer!

Jules said...

Oh Corey:
As usual these are WAY too cute. Tell Sugar Bear that she takes the BEST photos, just like her mom. And you have new too adorable picture at the top, right? Or have I just been away too long?

Maude Lynn said...

I need to do this, too! I am NEVER in pictures!

Harajuku PearL said...

Now these are really lovely pictures and you both look sooo cute. I love the last picture too. You must frame this up..this is just so priceless

Oh, I love seeing you IN FRONT of the camera, Corey! That needs to happen more often. ;)

Michelle said...

She's really catching on fast! and what great pics of the two of you! I think I need to ask for a tripod and remote for my bday!

Those are adorable!

Jo Beaufoix said...

Corey, how did I get four behind? Blimey. I love these sweetie, especially the second to last shot. That one makes me go all squishy. Sighhh.

Deb said...

Those are wonderful, Corey! I love the ones of the two of you together, but Sugar's not a bad little photographer herself either. Must run in the family... :)

Anonymous said...

Now pics of Sugar are always great, and it's also nice to see ohotos of you but I absolutely adore the pics of the two of you together. You can just see the love and happiness radiating between you.

Gotta love the remote shutter, eh?
