project: blogging - photography

{that's me}

Yes, that is me. I took the photo too and I over tweaked it on PicMonkey. I really should update it though for my blog. Just first I have to dye my hair, find something to wear, find a good background, wait for a sunny day, loose a few pounds... you know. Oh well, in the mean time check out what these bloggers have to say about shooting self-portraits:

I know, when I think of gettiing my picture taken - my list piles up. That's why I have one and it's 4 years old... =) Good post idea.

I'm going to have to check these out! I'm terrible about getting in the pictures with my family.

I like your photo! I'm the one that needs a new photo in a serious kind of way! It's terrible resolution, and the subject matter needs a few pick-me-ups I think ;-) Have a great weekend, Heather! Is the sun shining down your way?

You are too cute, you sound just like me. I think your photo is fab.

I simply won't do it. Being a photographer ...... I have a friend that is also a photographer and he is my "go to person" for pics of me. Which NEVER happens. I applaud those that can take pics of themselves, you my dear are one of those.
