A photographer friend of mine recently came up with a really great concept to blog about something important to her on Sundays that she calls “Simply Sunday“. I love the idea and I plan to join her in the adventure as often as I can. I know I won’t be able to do it every week, but I’m not going to worry about that either! I hope that you will consider joining us in this effort to. Whether you post something on your own blog, on Facebook, on Flickr, or somewhere else that is convenient to you, please just show it off. It doesn’t matter what you show, or why you love it, just tell us a little about it. Hit us in the comments below to tell us what you’ve shared…
These images are of my daughter Melanie. I’ve obviously got lots of picture frames and mattes lying around and I’ve often looked at them and thought I should do something a little more creative with them. When I saw Melanie looking very cute this morning, and I knew that I had some wonderful light streaming in the window, I just had to put it all together. I asked her to stick her head in the frame and just be herself. She’s very used to being in front of the camera and always feels like she needs to ham it up (see the images at the end of the post). So I love it when I can create a portrait that’s just her being her (like the one up top). My family and my children are very important to me, and fortunately I love to make pictures of them. I’m glad they are always willing to go along with me when I have an idea!
So this is my contribution to Simply Sunday. What do you have that you can share?

Melanie you are a cutie! Love the personality that shines through ~ I bet you are the perfect helper! 
Beautiful shots! Definitely memories for Simply Sunday.
Melanie is adorable! I love how she is helping and a part of your process.
She’s a great help! Her little brother is too, although he didn’t feel like taking part in this one. Maybe next time?
