Passion is defined as "any powerful or compelling emotion or feeling". Photography is just that for me- it moves me, inspires me, and challenges me continually. I am so thankful for this gift that I received just a few short years ago. It has literally transformed the way that I see the world. It makes me excited to get out of bed each day and it fills my creative soul like nothing else. Thank you for following along on my journey.

 Thanks to the following sponsors for partnering with us to bring you these fabulous deals; created exclusively for Poetic Winter Photo Challenge participants and valid throughout the month of February. Click on the images to be taken directly to their sites.





I’m teaming up with Rebecca of Bumbles and Light, Kristi of Live and Love Out Loud and Faith of Sweet Violet for the Poetic Winter Photography Challenge – an inspiring 4-week photo challenge aimed at capturing the poetic beauty of winter through photography.

Just a few details:
All are welcome regardless of skill level, time commitment and geographic location.

Each Friday, we'll have freebies, discounts to some of the hottest photography resources, photography tips and inspirational quotes or poems to get your creative photography juices flowing.

Share your favorite images inspired by the weekly prompt. The linky will remain open from 9am Friday – 9am Thursday CST. Link directly to your Poetic Winter blog post or Flickr photo, not your blog’s home page or Flickr Photostream.

Feel free to share your photos in our Poetic Winter Flickr Group as well and don’t forget to visit and comment on the previous entry in the linky list.

This time around, we'll be pinning our favorite photos to the Poetic Winter Pinterest Board. Not on Pinterest and need an invite? Let me know in the comments section and I'll be more than happy to send you one.

And last, but not least, don't forget to grab our lovely button.



Next week’s prompt will be calm. For more details, head on over to the Poetic Winter Challenge Page.

Make sure to stop by Sweet Violet where Faith has a freebie collage template and a short tutorial for ya.

  4. Love the shots - especially the one with the tree limb "going through" the polaroid shot!

    Just curious - is that a multi-use bulb on the flash attachment, or have you managed to find a supply of the single-use flash bulbs?

  8. Some great shots & quotes! I really like the photo hanging in the trees with the middle cut out, it's really cool looking! You must have an awesome partner that goes with you to take pictures of you, unless you're using a timer? =)

    TGIF!
