Seen From a Different Angle a Weekly Photo Prompt – Sweet| #wpmyview

Posted inFor Photographers,Inspiration,Seen From Another Angle

As spring melts into summer (can you believe it’s only a month away – crazy I know), and schools are counting down the days ’til summer vacation – I’m getting excited for popsicles, ice cream sandwiches, root beer floats, carmel sundaes and all delicious warm weather sweets. So I thought we’d kick off the road to summer sweetness. Find all things that are sweet to you. It may not even be a food item.

When you are sampling the fresh juicy strawberries at the farmers market, or getting the biggest hug from your littlest family member take a photo and then share it with us on Instagram with hashtag #wpmyview. Also know that all photos that are tagged are collected together into this gallery. So pop over and check it out.

If you want to see what sweet things I’m finding this week, follow me on twitter and Instagram (@shuttershelly). If you don’t want to wait until next week for the next photo prompt, check out the past prompts to inspire you.

Seen From a Different Angle a Weekly Photo Prompt – Waiting | #wpmyview

Posted inFor Photographers,Seen From Another Angle

We wait, and wait and wait for things. It’s a daily routine that I think we are numb to. We wait for traffic lights to change, we wait in line for our morning coffee, we wait for the ATM, we wait to board planes, trains and buses, we even wait to cross the street. As Dr. Seuss wrote about in Oh the Place You Will Go – there is a waiting place and that’s what we are capturing this week. When you’re standing around, take notice, take a photo – because you’re waiting for something, and then share it with us on Instagram with hashtag #wpmyview.

If you want to see what I’m waiting for this week follow me on twitter and Instagram (@shuttershelly). Also know that all photos that are tagged are collected together into this gallery. So pop over and check it out. If you don’t want to wait until next week for the next photo prompt, check out the past prompts to inspire you.

Ode to Motherhood | Maternity Session Los Angeles

Posted inMaternity

I can’t think of a more appropriate way to celebrate mother’s day then sharing this recent maternity session with my brother, sister-in-law and niece (remember when she was one?). That’s right – I’m going to be an auntie again. Now I realize that’s not remotely close to being a mom, but as an aunt you hold a special place. My relationship with my Aunt Gerrie growing up – was that of having a second mom. She lived around the corner from me throughout my childhood and my brother and I found ourselves over there for all kinds of reasons. To play with our cousins, for art projects and to swim. I hope Audrey and the new little bundle will fondly look back on their childhood and think of all the wonderful times we spent together.

Here’s to all the mothers and those with a mothering spirit. Let today be a reminder of how much you’re loved and appreciated.

Seen From a Different Angle a Weekly Photo Prompt – Blue | #wpmyview

Posted inFor Photographers,Inspiration,Seen From Another Angle

This week we turn our attention to capturing all things blue. That could be a feeling or a color. Maybe it’s your favorite pair of blue jeans or your prom dress or the hue of the sky. Be creative and think beyond the obvious. Do you have a pet named Blue? Is there a restaurant or a favorite shop in town that decor is blue or maybe its a blues club?

Well, get out of the wishing-spring-would-come-blues for all my Midwest friend, and get to picture taking. As we all want to see what things you’ll find this week.

Remember to share your picks on Instagram pics with the hashtag #wpmyview. Photos that are tagged are collected into this gallery. Go on … check it out. Want to see what I find this week, follow me on twitter and Instagram (@shuttershelly) and check in with Waldman Photography on our Facebook fan page too.

To get you in the mood here’s a fun panoramic of Catalina harbor, where I was over the weekend.

Happy shooting!
