Day 36


I was going to use a picture from today's moving day (not us, we were helpers) but then we went to Plutos for dinner & walked under this power line structure & it looked cool.

Day 35


Wow! Two month end days in a row I actually made it out of the apt. I'm branching out finally! ;-)
I took a walk around the apt complex just because I felt like I needed to and it was loud in the apt.. I was heading back home when I stumbled upon this little guy. He seemed friendly but wasn't too fond of my camera & the sounds it made so he kept his distance.
Not the greatest picture, all of them were out of focus (should've brought my flash) but I tried to make this one work.

Day 34


This was inspired on my way home when I was thinking of the state that my best friend is moving to :-D
Hey I made it out on month end! Sort of :-P

Day 33


I asked Justin for ideas for today's picture & he said food. So here's some ginger snaps. I liked it better with crumbs in the frame.

Day 31


Quick picture! These are the potstickers in the freezer that I will not get to eat at Tim's "nerd night" :-( So sad

Day 30


Garlic knot & strawberry yogurt for brunch. I decided to spend some time in editing to try out some new things. This is supposed to have a sepia background.
My sis would be proud that I bought organic yogurt. But she wouldn't be proud that I only ate a few bites of it ;-)

Day 29


I decided not to use any Eiffel Tower pics & to go with a different subject, but once I saw them on the computer, I liked the shadow. I should've taken it from the base level though so it looked more real ;-) Well.. besides the backdrop I made

Day 28


I figured I'd get a picture of Casper today since I've done one of the other two already. Now I can't do any of the three for a while :-P So yeah, this is Casper eating. A little off focus (focused behind his eye instead of his beak) but oh well.

Day 27


Oops, almost forgot to post this. I was trying to figure out, once again, what to take a picture of, then I was giving Grey some food so I took a pic..... Grey's not liking yellow this week, just FYI.

Day 26


Last min pic! I JUST remembered about the project so I took some quick random pics, didn't like them, starting walking around the apt and then remembered I need to water my plants! Oops. Anywhere, here's one of the off shoots of my awesome spider plant. I got a hanging pot for it so it's not all over our kitchen sink anymore. Good night!

I had the famous cheese skirt for the first time today. I was kind of afraid, but it was interesting!

Day 24


I went into the spare room looking for something to take a picture of. Then this little guy said he'd pose for me. Did some dodging & burning and here we are.

Day 23


Ok, so I guess I didn't get out this weekend. I was coming up towards the end of the day today with no picture, so I grabbed my camera & took it with my on my way to drop something in the mail thinking I'd find a bug or flower or something. Nothing really interested me so, here's my pic for today :-P

Day 21

Publish Post

I made Greyson a toy today because he's been really antsy and bored. I moved all his toys around & put it in his cage and then he came out of the cage to try and chew on it through the bars. Silly bird.

Day 20


Bleh, I really need to get out of the apt & work to take pictures... maybe this weekend. So I spent all evening tying ribbons for part of the invites.

Day 19


Uh, yeah, busy day I guess, that's why this is so late :-P So this is our patio. When I took the photos I didn't think I wanted the grill in the pic but I guess it helps the picture!

Day 17


"Bye bye to the phone!!" So I was contemplating what to take a picture of while I was trying to text today. But my phone is now a piece of crap so the 3 different ways I can get to the messaging part kept going to the facebook app so I had to restart. My phone also randomly shuts off. Usually while I'm on the browser or trying to upload a picture. Today during the middle of a call! So I got a creative idea & took some slow shutter shots of me "banging" it with a hammer. They didn't turn out quite as I wanted so I thought of taking a picture of me holding it over the balcony but I didn't want people to think I was crazy. Then I looked at Greyson & so yeah, here's Grey "destroying" my phone :-)

Day 16


I was trying to take a picture of a tiny spider on our stairway but... I think I need some better equipment for something that tiny :-P So I turned around to see if there were any of these flowers bloomed and there was one!

Day 15


For a few weeks I kept seeing a bird fly out from the awning pole next to my car every time I got close to it. Then maybe two days ago, I hear some baby birds so I tried to take some pictures of them but it was hard because they were so far to the back. Then I went to my car today and saw them close to the edge so I caught a picture. Aren't they so cute?! I wanna grab one and take it home! Don't worry, I won't... I know it's not the greatest picture, not quite in focus, and I'm surprised there's not camera shake since it was 1/45 sec, but it's all I got today. I really need to get out!

Day 14


I didn't feel like taking pictures today after work. So I finally decided to just post this picture I took this morning on my way to work. We've had nothing but boring blue skies lately so I was happy to see clouds today.

Day 13


So I kind of forgot about the project today until big sis reminded me with her picture! So tonight I was cutting ribbon for our invitations and I was burning the edges so they don't fray. Then I looked at the candle and "hey! picture!" So here you go.

Day 12 x2

I couldn't figure out which to post so I'm posting both. No rules against that, right?! Well not in my project ;-)


My office went to the river today for a potluck & we saw some geese/ducks. I kind of liked how this picture turned out because the goose is faced one way while the ducks are the other, the beak of the duck in front is parallel with the goose's back, and the duck on the right looks like he's peaking his head in the picture.

Just a pic of coworkers playing Rummy. No, she wasn't smiling at the camera, that's just her.

Day 10



Went to the Folsom Lake today. I know, it's nothing exciting, we were playing/ soaking in the rays in the sun around the corner there. I went in chase of a goose here but the pictures weren't very exciting.

Day 9


I was planning for today's picture to be something like fireworks or a flag or something. But plans keep changing so I don't know what we're doing. So I just decided to do my picture for the day before we leave. I'm just about ready to get our invitations put together. With the help of a bridesmaid today, I'm there a lot quicker!

Day 8


So I decided today that I'd take pictures of our dinner (BBQ ribs & I made guac for the first time) but they didn't turn out well. So I took some of Bentley :-)

Day 7


Well, I photographed my first wedding reception by myself tonight. I found this pic as the easiest one to edit so that's why I'm choosing it for today's picture because I'm tired now & I wanted to do it quickly. This is the top cake on a cupcake stand, by the way. Just pointing that out incase it looks as if it's floating.

Late post - I washed my car today and took it for a photo shoot in a vacant shopping center parking lot.
