The photo challenge this week is the best face of May.
I am barely getting this one in, but it is my favorite from this month.
We were going for a period shot and went to an 1800’s farm to do it. Their mom provided the awesome dresses (one from her childhood and the other sewed by hand). My step-daughters were completely convincing in setting and scene. I didn’t even need the farm.
This is why I love photography.
My entry did not make the top 100. Sorry everyone, I thought it was people’s choice for all, but it’s only the selected 100. A lot of great entries displayed if you’d like to vote for them!
what a neat idea!

Awesome. They are not quite as stern looking as some of the “period” photos I have seen, but they are not smiling BIG like usual.
This is awesome.
Good luck. I think voting is on a specific day so remind us.

Thanks Terre! I’ll remind you, and yes, I agree, they are too sweet to be stern old 1800’s ladies. 😀

Ellen- The girls mom brought their shoes with them too. I’m hoping she can get a canvas made of one of the portraits. They really love Little House on the Prairie and I wanted to get a keepsake photo for her.

Thanks Suzicate! It was nice working together, although a little more difficult at times, because they were looking at her and not me. LOL. Just love the park and the farm though. I have a lot more pics not posted anywhere yet. I can’t wait until I get time to tweak them.
