“A portrait of my daughter, once a week, every week, in 2015.”

Poet: she’s seemed so big of late and just like that I’m reminded; she fits in the laundry basket…she’s still little. 

Shot on a Canon 5D mkiii with a 50mm 1.4 lens – ISO125, f1.6, 1/640
 

I was taking washing off the line when I looked over and noticed that she had set up camp. As subtly as I could, I dashed inside to get the camera and managed to take this before she noticed me. Lucky.This week I was enamoured with this magical window scene / a little one catching snowflakes on her tongue / these b+w portraits (a theme for the entire year – inspiring).

    Oh she's so sweet – my girls love playing boats with our baskets, I'll be a little sad when they're too big to fit anymore!

    It looks like a great spot to lay around and gaze at the sky! My portraits are always better when they don't notice me snapping away.

    Oh this captures the essence of summer time home life.

    Is that an orange tree I spy amongst the confetti of frangipani flowers?

    Sweet. They do seem so big sometimes, and then you catch a glimpse of them all tiny and vulnerable, and remember they are still so small. Lovely capture. And, are those oranges on the bush behind? Wow 🙂

    Love this, the best pictures are always caught with them unaware. Another reason to keep the camera at the door (without a fiddly case).

    Beautiful. You are such a talented artist. My son is a blur in most of his photos. I take hundreds of them just trying to capture that one moment when he is sitting still or the blur actually works well. A nearly impossible feat 😉

    Jodi, I have been reading your blog for over a year now, one of those mainly silent readers who us bloggers never really know exist until they pop up a comment but I just wanted to say that this is my favourite 52 photo to date. It touches the 39 year old-about-to-turn 40 year old, mother who will now be having any more children. Just lovely.
