Portraits of a (Moody) Princess (Who Wears Too Much Lipstick)

Portrait of a (Moody) Princess

Portrait of a (Moody) Princess

This year I plan on spending more time with a camera in my hand. And I plan to post more of the photos that I do take here on this blog.

Ideally, the photos will be accompanied with words, but not always.

I also plan on posting menus of what I ate for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

It's going to be EXCITING HERE in 2010, is what I'm trying to tell you.

(I was kidding about posting menus. But not kidding about photography.)

Actually, Y, I wouldn't mind finding out what you are eating. I was diagnosed with PCOS and soon followed by being diagnosed with diabetes. I have tried and tried (okay maybe not tried hard enough) to lose weight and I'm struggling. What do you eat in a typical day? By the way, you take fantastic photos!

Your photos are beautiful. But I'm a little disapointed that you were joking about posting menus. I'm trying to improve my diet and need all the ideas I can find!

we could all use a tiara like that some days...yes? Lovely!

Darn. I was looking forward to the menus too. I never know what to make for lunch.

The princess will have to do for now. Too cute!!

OK, so I don't think I've ever commented before.

I quite thoroughly enjoy your writing and I follow you on twitter. Don't ever question it...I've been reading you for a long time, and have been too intimidated to write (that's good for you---I mean that because you are amazing).

Just thought you needed to hear from someone who lurks too much and comments too little. I'll do better.

You need to go into the photog business already. For real. You would do very well. Maybe as a family portrait photographer or something. I think weddings would be stressful, but you definitely have an eye for capturing people. And I'm not just saying this as someone who doesn't know anything. You got it, girl. ;-)

Good! I like your photographs! You have a good eye, don't doubt yourself!

Heeeeey, I would also love to read your menus! You are an inspiration and a beacon of tenacity, IMHO. I would love to know what foods you eat that keep up your great spirit, sense of humor and that fuel your mighty camera lens! (Long time reader; infrequent commenter here.) Pretty please with pink lipstick on top?

These photos are amazing!!!!! Can you come to ny again and take kick ass pics of my girls? Pretty please?

Posted by: maya at January 7, 2010 11:19 AM

Not gonna lie, the menus would be pretty cool too.

Lovely pics. Am getting the shutterbug bug myself. If I could just figure out how to post them correctly . . .

Looks to me like portrait of a girl with a mom that lets her try.

So lush these memories will be. Beautiful, mama. And, also, beautiful mama :)

    About Y
    My name is Y, but you can call me "Jesse's girl." I am an Aerobic Dancer and have mastered many moves, but the one I am the most proud of is "The Monkey." I have three kids. ALL FROM THE SAME DAD (Because, did you know someone actually asked me that question?) A 16 year old son, a 12 year old son and a 4 year old daughter who was not planned but who is loved more than words could ever express. I am addicted to Starbucks, reality TV and to getting really good deals through coupons and "club member" savings (Please, respect The Costco Card.) I am extremely competive and if you don't believe me, just ask my husband about the time I sold him out to win a game of Taboo. If you're waiting for the part where I speak of my love for walks on the beach or slow dancing in the rain, you're going to be disappointed because my idea of a good time usually involves things like "burping contests" and "doing The Worm".
