Day 42 - Natasha King Photography - Project 365

Hooray! We are finally in our new house. And no you aren't getting any pictures until I get a chance to unpack and decorate. So here is one area of the house that I am not happy with, the closet in my son's room. The bar in the closet might be 2ft across. What am I supposed to do with this thing? My son has more clothes than I do, and his closet is expanding more rapidly than mine. Guess I'll be making a trip to my local Lowe's to figure out something to triple the size of this closet.

Day 41 - Natasha King Photography - Project 365

I hate diapers. Hate. Hate. Hate. My biggest joy about moving into my new house will be switching back to cloth diapers. Every time I have to spend $18 on a box of diapers (that the bigger they get the fewer diapers you get for your money!) I just want to cry. So here is (hopefully) the last box of Huggies that I will have to buy for a long time. He does wear disposable diapers at daycare but we only go through about one box every month and a half at home. Counting down the days....

Day 40 - Natasha King Photography - Project 365

Here is my confession. When my husband and I first started dating I used to wear heels all the time. All.the.time. That carried on well into our marriage. It got so bad that my husband would insist that I take a pair of flats with me "in case I needed to run". So that was my thing. And then I got pregnant and demoted myself to "Mommy shoes". All my shoes were either flip flops, tennis shoes, or flat boots. Chasing after a two year old just seems easier that way. So when my husband told me to go buy some heels for myself I jumped at the chance. Don't know where I will wear these, but I am in love with them none the less.

Thanks for your patience.

I am in the final stages of my move. And unfortunately I will be without internet until Monday. So once again, no more updates until Tuesday.

Day 39 - Natasha King Photography - Project 365

So if you are like me an indulged in the tv show Desperate Housewives of Atlanta, then you should know Derek Blanks. If you don't, he is the guy who does those AWESOME alter ego shoots which combines two pictures of the same person into one. I am thinking about doing "Mom Alter Egos" for my thesis and have started using myself as the guinea pig. Here is my first combined shot. The lighting is super awful but it was more about being able to combine the two images seamlessly. Now that part I rocked!

Day 38 - Natasha King Photography - Project 365

Sometimes a camera phone is all I have. If I was rocking one of those hot new Ephiphanie camera bags I would always have my Nikon handy. But I digress. So this was a quick trip into Toys R' Us. Or at least it was supposed to be. I had done the classic Mom trick... you know you say you're going to leave them and you turn the corner waiting for them to come running after you. Well I turned the corner and waited, and waited, and waited. So I had no choice but to go back and see what is keeping him from joining me. Well it looks like he found his own ride home.

Day 37 - Natasha King Photography - Project 365

So this is one of the images that I have been working on for my thesis. I have been working for the last semester on images of trees and power lines. There is a powerful narrative between the chaotic lines of trees mixed with the straight power lines made by man. Don't know if I will stick with this for my thesis once the leaves come back but it sure has been fun.
