Where is the most beautiful place you have ever been? Did you snap a high-quality photo or two while you were there? Well, you may already have some prime material for this month’s assignment! Or perhaps there’s a picturesque spot nearby you’ve always wanted to photograph, but never had a good reason to visit at […]
When I first found out what the theme would be for the photo assignment we would be shooting for Homeschool Summits in April, I got a wild idea in my head for what to photograph. However, I had a very difficult time figuring out how I would actually go about shooting my idea! Finally, after […]
Photographing something so broad as “Prayer” might seem kinda boring. However, when I got to thinking about how I would photograph it, I started getting excited! Instead of being limited to a certain subject, style, or location, I could take the assignment wherever I wanted. I could make it my own! What is special about […]
Julianna and I enjoyed cooking Thanksgiving dinner together two weeks ago! You’ll have to watch the video to find out why we were having a Thanksgiving dinner so early. These are my favorite shots from the photo shoot. If anyone wants to submit photos for this assignment, feel free to do so here!
