This week I don't even know why I am entering. I Heart Faces is hosting a hard-core real-deal photography theme for Week 19 and my measly point-and-shoot and i don't have much to show for it. (Well, Picnik definitely helped me, too!) But, i love participating and can't help myself so here I am! It goes without saying that I am most definitely entering the Amateur category!
{PS You can see the making of the photo shoot, here}
{PPS You, too, can have this flower headband!}
you may need to click on it to see all of it...?
Little C is teething so her fingers would not leave her mouth for yesterday's photo shoot. Oh well!
{As her totally non-biased mommy, i still think she is cute!}I'm bummed that I had to add a black border around the picture but the edges got washed out due to my blog's white background. Since i'm giving up the Internet for a whole day (gasp!), i don't have time to monkey (get it? monkey? ah, at least I'm laughing) with it...oh well. The life as an amateur :-o
{Click here to see what it looks like, sans black border.}
As always, head on over to I Heart Faces to see more of the very best faces photographers have ever taken!

are you kidding? your picture is amazing! better than mine and you used a point and shoot - now that's impressive! :-)
I super love this photo! The fact that her fingers are in her mouth just makes it cuter. :)
This is beautiful! I love the perspective and the catchlights! not to mention the absolutely gorgeous model :)
Oh I love it! This is a great photo!
Don't forget that you made the top ten that one week and you said you didn't think you'd win then either!
I really do think this is a great picture! I'm still not sure which one i'm going to enter this week.
Who are you kidding? This is a BEAUTIFUL photo. I love how it captures the stage in your daughter's life. I love the light and crisp feeling of it. It is a wonderful, expressive, glorious photo.
Gorgeous!! wish mine came out that good ;)
Such a darling photo - love it!
A P&S? For real?? WOW!! Love the catchlights in her eyes! That is really hard to get with a P&S camera sometimes. Great shot!
Stop! This a great picture, really beautiful.
I only have a corny point and shoot as well lol, and oftentimes don't feel worthy of participating in such contents, but I love photography, and I put my heart into the pics I take, and that makes feel a professional hobbyist at least =)
Are you kidding me????You have captured pure beauty here. No flaws whatsoever. She is amazing. Love the color too. Great great job!
The crop is fantastic! Good luck!
This picture is beautiful. I am amazed and impressed that you captured it with a point and shoot. Great job.
Your daughter is beautiful and I love the touch of pink.
This photo is great, you really captured the lights in her eyes. What a gorgeous baby.
What an awesome shot! Gorgeous!! And the fingers in the mouth is mega cute.
Beautiful capture! What a doll.
This is beautiful. I would have never thought a you took it with a point and shoot. You little one is beautiful, love the flower.
Great shot. Love the perspective! She is definately a cutie! The headband is so sweet too!
Great shot... love the angle & the hat & the baby... (it really is a great shot!)
I only have a point and shoot also and feel exactly like you. But every week I enter anyways- it's to much fun! (Plus it takes the pressure off for winning) That being said, this is gorgeous, and you have a definite shot at winning! Pun intended.
oh my! What a beautiful picture :) Such a sweet little girl.
Um, it must be true what they say about the photographer making the shot and not the camera because yours is beautiful. To be honest, I couldn't decide whether or not to enter this week and was randomly clicking on entries and when I ended up at your blog I thought something like, "with photos like this, what is the point?" Then I decided that I could enter for fun and excitement, don't have to be in it to win it ;)
That is just beautiful!! Love jhow you edited it from the original and the other photos in the set!!

As her totally unbiased non-mommy - I think she's supercute too!!! One of my all time favorite photos of my little Beauty (and one I entered for no flash week) is of her teething when she wouldn't take her hands out of her mouth. Teething shots can still be cute, as you've proven here today!
so cute. great crop!
Great shot, she's a cutie!
She is so cute! What a wonderful photo!
That's a beautiful picture!

I love the composition and the lighting....everything about this shot!
That picture is with a point and shoot? Just beautiful!!
I love the photo. The fingers in the mouth...and the cuteness of your little one...make the picture!

great picture, I love the fingers in her mouth, she is beautiful....
Please tell me you're joking about just having a pointnshoot? This shot is amazing and I'm just going to go away firmly believing that you are secretly a professional....
I love her eyes. The editing is gorgeous! Good job.
BEAUTIFUL!!!
For not having a very nice camera you sure know how to make it work for you! This is totally gorgeous. I love it.
That is an amazing shot especially with a Point and Shoot. It is an amazing one even with a nice camera/lens. Great job and good luck
What a doll!
Love this, and especially since it's with a point and shoot! And you gotta love Picnik! Great job!
This is gorgeous! The crop is fantastic, almost as though she is peeking around the edge of the frame. And to think it was all done with a point and shoot camera!
I adore your photo. She is such a little doll. I really like the crop, the flower, and those fingers in her mouth. ♥
this is a great photo, I love the composition and the colors are fab!!!
She is so beautiful. Great, amazing shot!!
Oh wow, she is the sweetest! That is super cute! Surely a winner! Great shot!!!
I love the crop on this photo and that flower is fabulous (so is your baby!).
I think this is an amazing photo! You really did this with a point and click?
Fabulous shot! Beautiful baby!
Beautiful. Just goes to show, it's the photographer with the skills, not the camera.
Oh, she is adorable!!!!
Her eyes are just gorgeous!!!
And, I love the headband too!!
