Spring Photo Challenge

Uncategorized

I am really excited to announce a new monthly feature here on Bower Power.  I have been calling them Photo Challenges in my head but that might be the most unoriginal title ever…so I am open to suggestions.

Basically the gist of the photo challenge is this…every month we get a new challenge theme…this month it is SPRING.  You take photos of stuff related to the theme (your kid in a field of flowers, your car covered in pollen, your allergy meds, etc.) and you link up to your favorite photo that you have posted for that month.  This is for all you wanna-be-or-pro-photographers out there!  Sometimes just knowing other people are gonna see my pictures helps me snap better…so this is for us to improve our camera skills and to add to our own portfolio.  I’m gonna guarantee you right now that 99% of my photos will be of my kids…just consider yourself warned.

And after we shoot till our little hearts are content, we share via linky party right here!  That’s it!  So next Wednesday we have the last day of April and that will be our first picture party…so SPRING to it friends!  Grab those cameras and go!

  1. Great idea! I’m excited! How about calling it a pic-link party or picture party (since it’s a link up).

  3. This is such a good idea! I just got my first DSLR with our tax refund (thanks, Uncle Sam!) and I am having so much fun trying to get comfortable with it! Plus, this will be good to get us outside more enjoying this gorgeous spring 🙂

  12. I love this idea! I’m really interested in improving my photography, so hopefully this will help! Will be a challenge since I don’t have cute kids or a pet, and live in the desert with minimal signs of spring life haha. I’ll see what I can come up with though!

  13. I will post my Spring photo and the linky party on the last day of the month (next Wednesday). Hope you join the fun!

  14. What a greta idea! I’ve never participated in something like this before and at the risk of sounding like an idiot, do I have to have a blog to participate in this?? how do we share the photos with you??

  16. Great idea! I’ve been looking for opportunities to improve my skills. Thanks for the inspiration.

  19. I LOVE this!! I always love a photo challenge but I just started a blog this month and I have been looking for link up parties to start going to, can’t wait!! Yay!!!

  20. No way! Any photo sharing site will work too – so feel free to link up to any photo that is yours and is online!

  21. Interested peeps should also check out the I Heart Faces website as they’ve been doing this there for years.

  22. Yes indeed! That site is a great resource but I have found that their contest is definitely not for beginners…the ‘winners’ are usually professionals and this challenge is more for non-pros who are seeking a little direction. So I definitely encourage check out the I Heart Faces contests and add them to your reader if you are interested in more of a challenge!

  26. Hey! That’s my Kingsley-Girl with that dandelion! 🙂

    Hope you’re doing well, Katie. We still love all the photos that you took for us last year. Don’t you want to go to Destin this summer and take some more of us while you’re there? Be a sport! 😉

  28. Well, should you decide to go, let me know! We shack up with the in-laws for about three weeks over the summer, and I’m actively looking for a photographer to do portraits on the beach. I just can’t find anyone whose photos just jump out at me. Do it!!
