self portraits

I am not very good at self portraits... I would rather be the person behind the lens instead of in front of it.  But, I also realized that its important for my kids to have pictures of their parents.  Frank is not big on pictures either.  I have to catch him when he is not looking. 

I love to look at the soulful website ShutterSisters, The beautiful women there often talk about doing self portraits - to show yourself as you are.  My plan is to take one pictures of myself a month.  I am not one to stand in front of mirror or turn my camera phone to myself but, I am going to try.  The picture below was taken by one of my girls about a year and a half ago.  We were on top of a parking garage in downtown Albuquerque.  They were actually getting their head shots done and we all decided to be a little playful.




My girls are sooo Pretty
