A portrait of my children, once a week, every week, in 2013

Well, I’ve had a week of complete indecision. After wrapping up Project 366 I really couldn’t face continuing this blog and was pretty certain that the end of the project would see the end of the blog. The daily grind of capturing, uploading, editing and finally blogging wore pretty thin come the end of December and the thought of keeping the blog up really wasn’t sounding that appealing when the new year rang in.

As the week went on I kept taking photos each day (Yes even on Jan 1- seriously what’s up with that?) and knew that I wanted to complete another project this year. Good lord not a photo a day but something that I could manage and that would keep my interest in photography and my compulsion to document our family life going. So, Project 52 it is. One portrait of each of my children, once a week, every week, in 2013. 104 photographs for the year. I can do that.

Today after thinking about how I am going to sustain this project (and a little encouragement from family and friends) I decided that I would blog this project. I need accountability. I need something that will make me get those many, many images off my camera. Posting the photos once a week will help me stick to an editing pattern and hopefully encourage me to aim a little higher with my photos and learn a few new techniques along the way.

So here I am again. Wise descision? Well, we'll see.....

 

The B-sides (because two photos seems a little minimalist for me…)
