    Fun! I'll be following along with yours!

    I'm doing a 365 project on Instagram, not necessarily to improve photography skills as I'll be using my phone, but I'm trying to focus on taking photos of something every day that I'm grateful for/makes me happy. Just trying to appreciate the little things more. I'm @loverenovations on Instagram.

    @Espion: Totally with you on weekly vs daily. I figure I'm going to aim for daily, but I won't beat myself up if it ends up being not quite as daily as I expect.

    @Mrs. Garland: Oh, I'll follow you over there!

    I started a little blog for my pics. I don't know if I'm allowed to post it here, so I'll just add it to my profile if anyone wants to follow along!

    I have a personal blog, which is basically the E show, so I can't imagine people outside of my mother and grandparents would be that interested, lol! I'll definitely put the pics on there, but does anyone use anything different that is relatively private? (I don't instagram, I forget why, but I found their whole set up annoying for some reason and deleted it off my phone.)

    @Espion: I'm on board for weekly photos too with my DSLR. The plan for now is a weekly portrait of my two LOs.

    Haven't decided if I will post them to IG or my blog, which has been dormant for quite some time. I need to hurry up and get this week's pics taken!

    @Mrs. Confetti: I just bookmarked your blog on my phone & iPad and will be following daily! Your pictures are so nice!!! I want to use my DSLR more often instead of my iPhone so don't know how often I will post those pics to Instagram. Once a week seems like an attainable number. What is your Instagram name?

  11. Espion

    pomegranate / 3577 posts

    I'll wall anyone my blog who wants it, just keep in mind that it is nothing fancy and maintained basically for the grandparents!

    @lamariniere: @Kimberlybee: I'm thinking of using Sunday as my cut-off each week. I figure that it at least gives me some latitude to choose a good picture each week!

    @marionberry: I would love your IG
    @Espion: wall me your blog!
    @jetsa: following
    @Kimberlybee: my IG is _rachelclicks_ but I only use it for silly nonsense from my phone camera. Wall me yours if you use it for your 365

  13. jetsa

    @Espion: wall me your blog. Mine is just a basic tumblr for the same reason

    @jetsa: Let me know if you get it! It looks like I can tag it as a private wall post, but I'm not sure if the gold thing is a two way street or not. (Would seem weird if you couldn't see it since it gave me the option.) If you can't see it, I'll just post it as non-private. Not *that* big of a deal. Does your tumblr have any pictures on it, or am I not putting in the address correct?

    I think I'm going to try a once a week pic with my DSLR. I really want to use it more. I have been lately, and it's been fun taking pics of my daughter. She is easy since she isn't mobile yet... my toddler on the other hand. (sigh). I think I'll post it on IG. I better get moving on this weeks pic!!

    My IG is katiekc if anyone wants to follow me.

    @lamariniere: Your pictures are amazing! Definitely one of my favorite Instagram feeds. I can't believe some of those are not taken on a DSLR. Thanks for sharing!

    @Espion: That sounds like a good plan for Sunday cut off! I would love to follow your blog. I will wall you in a bit.

    @Espion: yes, I think Sunday will be my cut off each week too. Gotta get down to business today!

    @Kimberlybee: thanks! Some of the pics I post on IG are DSLR, and I usually note it. The vast majority are iPhone pics though.

    @mrskc: haha, I miss those days of having a non-mobile child to photograph.

    I am doing one! What do you do when you miss a day? Just carry on and pretend you didn't?

    @Mrs. Lion: if I have a picture but just forgot to record it I go back and fill in blanks!

    blogger / grapefruit / 4836 posts

    @T.H.O.U.: I don't even have a picture! Maybe I will just try to do 7 per week haha. I am already missing one on day 3. Whoops.

    blogger / pomegranate / 3491 posts

    @Mrs. Lion: I say just take two the next day. That is my plan for days I miss

    @Mrs. Lion: I'm not worrying about I figure as others as said I'll end up with way more than I would've this way so I'll be happy with that

    Aaaaaand my camera broke.

    I am really bummed, because it is an expensive camera (I've only had it two years!) and it was perfect for a fast moving kid. But the lens won't come out any more and the shutter won't open. I'll have to try for an iPhone pic or look to see if I managed any good ones before my beloved camera bit the dust.

    Four days in, so far I've been successful! I'll be posting photos on my personal blog which is in my profile if anyone's curious. Although I'll prob wait till I have at least a weeks worth of photos before writing a project 365 post.

    @Espion: Oh no, sorry about your camera. Hope you can get it fixed at a reasonable price,

    Late to the game but I started my 365 and finally put together my blog to go with it (I am part of a few facebook groups through my photography forum so been sharing there but wanted a place to share outside of FB) Nobody needs to follow or anything just thought Id share

    How do you find good pictures of the kiddos every day when your kids go to daycare all day? I haven't gotten any decent pictures in the last 2 days that C has been gone

    @Mrs. Lion: I struggle with this, too. So far, I've managed to get a photo every day but I fear I'm going to end up with a lot of messy-faced dinner photos and/or bathtub photos because that's basically all the time we have in the evenings. I'm going to try to get some morning shots here and there, it's just really hard to find an extra two minutes in the morning. I might also do some occasional shots of her toys or other "remains of the day". And, since I'm not doing a pure 365, I'm not going to stress if there are days I can't fit a photo in. It's hard but what else can you do?

    @Mrs. Lion: It is part of the reason why I'm doing one a week! If I was doing a photo a day, I would document things that you might think are mundane, but truly represent your LO's day/interests. Like E on the changing table flipping the wipe warmer lid up and down. Not exactly an award winning photograph, but I know I would look back on it and smile, because the kid is obsessed with lids.
