"A portrait of my child, once a week, every week, in 2013."

Elizabeth on my childhood bed. We went to visit my mum and dad this week. It was so lovely. There's something about my parents house that I find very relaxing. A few days in their company was just what the doctor ordered. Plus they have a really plush living room carpet - perfect for rolling and tumbling about on. My dad spent hours on all fours trying to teach E to roll in a line. It was priceless and I wish I'd caught it on camera. Next time Dad...

When I started this project I was adamant I would use my DSLR for every portrait, but the odd iphone photo has snuck in, this is one of them. I travelled to my folks on the train and I just couldn't manage my camera on top of the rest of the baby ephemera E now requires. There's something quite spontaneous about iPhone pics though, isn't there?

  3. What a sweetie! You're so right about the phone pics vs DSLR - I think I tend to get the funny/silly moments captured on my phone, as it's generally what's to hand when my little one is doing something comedic!x

  4. Aw. Love the simplicity of this shot. So sweet.

    (and I planned to use the opportunity of this project to learn how to use our camera and have managed a grand total of ...0 non-iPhone shots so far. Opps)
