Remember ... a self portrait is just a representation of you. It doesn't have to be amazing and you don't have to look your absolute best. We're leaving a photo diary here for our families so they can see us as we are.
What are some of your ideas? I'd love to see them below in the comments. I'm sure they're inspire the rest of us! 🙂
Such a wonderful idea! You are right, life isn’t always perfect and neither are we. Capturing life is beautiful!
Thanks Lisa! I hope you can join in.
An interesting way of looking at self portraits. I do like the fact that others can look back at us, most times, the photographer, whether professional or amateur, is never in those memorable family photos. Thanks for sharing your ideas Carolyn. 🙂
Thanks Debra … and you’re welcome! You’re joining in, right?
I’ll do my best!!
Sounds good! It’s just once a month. 🙂
That’s doable. ?
