I enjoyed the opportunity to photograph this assignment with my sister and her newborn son! There are SO many ways that “motherhood” can be pictured – my photos are just one of many options. Here are some favorites from my submissions.

Thank you, @lenspirationlydia, for getting this assignment prepared as I took paternal leave for the birth of precious, little Mordecai!

Hello! Here are five of my favorite shots for this assignment. I am wondering which others think looks best, as I have not yet learned how to pick. I am thanking the Lord for beautiful sunshine and ladybugs!

So cute! I really like the ones that show the subject highlighted in sunlight with the background falling into shadow! I’d say “Ladybug-in-sun-2-RESIZED.jpg” is my favorite of the bunch.

Hi James, I was wondering, is it ok to submit pictures of animals for this assignment if they reflect motherhood?

[Grace Galdamez]

I have thought the same! since I have more photos of animals than people hehe.

[James Staddon]

Hi @jerrell and @grace-galdamez, I’m so sorry I didn’t check this thread earlier! No, I don’t think animal photos would have a very high chance of winning. “Family Conferences” is who we are photographing for, so photos with animals would be a little out of place. However, you could photograph objects and scenes without people that obviously relate to motherhood, and I think those would go over well. Feel free to submit the animal photos in addition to others, though, in the low chance that they actually might be useable.

Here some of my shoots for this assignment!

I had a lot of fun shooting for this assignment! I needed to get back to doing some photography, as I haven’t been doing a lot for a while because of other things getting in the way, so this was perfect timing!

I’m thankful our daffodils started blooming this week. Just in time to provide a pretty feminine subject.

I have an editing question. How can you tell if an image is a natural looking “warmth” by using the red/green/blue numbers? I keep getting confused because there’s no number for yellow.

These two I took the day after the previous ones- when more flowers had bloomed!
