Life Stories Series: The Story of the Shopping | League City Childrens Photographer

Ever see a photographer who starts out with a 365 day project, or even a 52 week project and never finishes? Yeah, me too. Well, I recently joined a group of a few other busy photographers who decided to commit to a 12 month project! If we fail this, we'll be taking donations for a time management seminar. The best part is that it will be totally candid, lifestyle shots of each of our own families/lives. We don't even have to dredge up random people or make our kids pose for us. We're calling the series "The Story of ________" and we'll each be filling in our own blanks. At the end of this post is a link to another photographer who participated and she'll be linking to someone else. It's a whole big circle of stories in pictures. Click through and enjoy! 

Our weekly shopping trip - I have to say I was a chicken doing this.  I'd take my big ole huge camera out and take a quick shot and then put it back in my bag.  Wait until I got to another empty aisle and shoot a few more, but I'm so glad I did it.  What great memories!  And we actually made it out of the store with all our shoes.  Yep, that's a miracle.


So keep on clicking and see what story Taryn Chrapkowski of Taryn Lisa Photography has to tell this month.  Enjoy the circle. :)

    Love this Kathleen, yes I am surprised you made it out of the store without someone saying no cameras. That has happened to me. :)

    I can totally picture you slyly taking pictures and then hiding away your camera! That's a shopping trip I wish I could have done with you. Love these!

    This is just wonderful! I've wanted to take my camera into stores but always chicken out! Good for you for documenting one of those "everyday" things!
