This week’s challenge at I ♥ faces is “Dramatic Black and White”, and if you have a daughter, you’re well aware just how much drama they bring into your life! Mine is 5 years old, and most likely a super-hero(!) She is always full of drama, and getting her to play model for me is usually a huge struggle. The other day I finally begged and pleaded enough to get her to agree, and promised a fun location to boot! Off we went to the beach, where she cooperated for about 3 minutes, then wanted to run and play and throw rocks. Now, I love that part of her, but I had a very specific vision in mind for this shoot…needless to say I only partially captured it. I’m sure you’ll all agree that just the look on my Amelia-mazing’s face makes this picture ‘moody’, but I also love all the different shades of gray in this image, and the way her face is shadowed by the hat.

What a wonderful location to shoot! She is awfully adorable grumpy. I'm loving the lines of the scarf.
great composition with the water & beach in the background. love her grumpy face.
and thanks for the nice comment on my entry!
