365 PORTRAIT CHALLENGE | 3 OF 365 | Caleb being Caleb

We are on Day 3 of the 365 portrait challenge that we put on ourselves and it has been a great experience already. So far I have gotten both of my kids in the portraits already and today we should be going outside of the house to get a portrait.

The portrait for Day 3 is of our son Caleb. We already know that he is going to be one of the funny kids in school. He loves to make people laugh and he can't sit in front of the camera and look into it without making some goofy face.

This is our son being our son...

The more I thought of this challenge, the more I started to think that this could be a "Humans of New York" type of project. I don't know if we will get to that level, but it definitely will reach a number of different people that cross our paths. I know there will be some duplicates of people throughout this process, but the more we step out of our comfort zone and ask people for photos, the more fun this project can get.

Part of this challenge will be to take photos of as many different people as we can. Let's see how far we can reach!

365 PORTRAIT CHALLENGE | 2 OF 365 | Sarai and Peanut Butter

We are doing a portrait challenge where we want to take a portrait every day for the next 365 days. We are on day 2 and I already have had my daughter on both the photos from Day 1 and Day 2! I better find some new subjects or this will be a 365 challenge of Sarai. I did take a few photos on the day, but this was still my favorite of the bunch.

Sarai LOVES grabbing a "stoop" of peanut butter in a spoon and chomping down. She also is very camera aware. When you combine the two, we get something like this!

What a freaking cute kid. While we do this challenge, we might just end up with a ton of photos of our fam and kids, but that is never going to be a bad thing!

The reason why we are photographers is to capture lives. If we didn't do it for our own family, then we would be doing it wrong! We capture amazing photos for people all the time and we better make sure to capture the amazing moments with our own family.

This portrait challenge is going to be fun. We will definitely be getting more subjects for the photos, but we know that we will have plenty of our kids in the mix.
