A few months ago I got to join in on a photography group. We met at Powell's Bookstore downtown, had coffee and talked about all things photography. It was great! The group decided to do a fun assignment - take 24 shots in 24 hours and post them. Well, I've been really bad about it! I keep trying and keep failing!
As I read Ann Voskamp's book One Thousand Gifts I was inspired to snap little photos throughout my day of things I was thankful for. I thought it would be fun to do my "24 shots in 24 hours" and post those things I snapped throughout my day. Well, I managed to snap 10 in 24 hours. :) Then I felt I needed to start over the next day to not break rules... ahhh, my self-imposed anxiety over the rules was turning this fun activity into something I couldn't ever complete! So tonight I decided I'd just post my 10 shots... but I'll still try again after Christmas and get those 24 in 24! :) Is anyone else out there this crazy? Please say yes.
So here are 10 little things I spotted one day, a couple weeks ago, that I was thankful for...
And I'm thankful for all of you too!!
Have a wonderful Christmas with your families!!
xo,
Bethany

I think 10 in 24 hours still captures the spirit of the assignment!! Yea for capturing these 10 :)) I love your varying angles and your "thankful" theme. The "comfort" angle and focus is really appealling, I love the "chubby thighs" and the "cheerful light" is so inviting! I hope you have a very Merry Christmas with your family!!
Beautiful! I keep trying(and failing) as well. This inspires me to work on it again! Merry Christmas!
Oh, I LOVE this! What a great idea...and I love that you used the thankful theme. I may have to try 24 in 24, too! Merry Christmas!
Beautiful pictures! I love the light and the feelings they convey. The photography club sounds like fun...makes me wish Portland was a little closer :) Also love the pictures of Benjamin's birthday! So many great ones. Love the one of him with the candle lit in front of him and his smile in all of them! Merry Christmas!
Bethany, I love these, especially the 'thankful' theme! I too have yet to complete the 'assignment' but you and Amber have provided the motivation I need. :)
With baby boy due to arrive any day, I have a feeling my '24 in 24' will primarily be composed of sweet baby boy pictures, coming in the very near future. :)
