It’s going to be a fun week at I ? Faces… this is the week Angie and I will be the judges! Everyone will be entering one (and only one) photo that will be considered to be in our I ? Faces Blurb Book! This will be tough one, because I have a hard time making decisions! I’m a Libra, I like balance and want everyone to win:-)
Since I can’t make decisions, maybe you can help me decide about the photo I would choose.
This first one is of my little girl. I so want one of my kids to be in our book! I love her expression, the color and I think this is a fun shot.
This one is probably one of the best face shots I’ve taken. But, it’s not anyone I know and I didn’t get a “model release.” So might not be a good choice. Although she was in character and apparently fairies don’t talk, so maybe she wouldn’t mind if I used her photo?
I’m thinking we might need more adult shots in the book. So maybe this self portrait?
Okay, so what photo would you choose??
Since I’m the judge and co-founder, I’ll just add mine later. I like making the rules and breaking them:-)
Good luck to all who enter!!! I can’t wait to see your entries!
Visit I ? Faces to find out more details about our Blurb Book contest to find out how you can enter.
Those are some great shots. I would pick the one of your daughter for nastalga’s sake!

I like the one of your daughter the best. It is really cool and something about it really grabs and holds my attention.

Darn it! I can’t decide because these are all great shots. I’ve ALWAYS loved your fairy shot, but the one of your daughter is so great too! And your self portrait is gorgeous. So… I guess I’m no help other than to say that I don’t think there is a wrong choice. I do think that they may need more adult pics though. Hmmmm…. Sorry I’m no help.

I would definitely say the one of your little cutie
But i had the same problem. I think I should just break the rules and add mine later too 
haha
I love all of them – you’re one talented chica!
thanks for doing this – I know I’ve told you this before but you are awesome!

Oh heck, you make the rule, go with all three. They are all amazing, but I really LOVE your self portrait, so so soft and beautiful.

I vote for the self portrait. Your right, not many adult entries. Lots of cute kids, though. Good luck sorting through them all!

Amy – go for your daughter’s picture!! It’s absolutely adorable and like someone above said, years down the road that is the one you will enjoy seeing in the book!

You always have such amazing photos! But the “fairy” one is one of my favorites of yours as well.

I definitely love the one of your little girl. How fun to have your child featured in the book.

Oh no Amy, do I need a model release? Gees…I’m so new.
I vote for your little girl.

Sheesh…are you kidding? Is this what it is going to be like for you to pick winners this week? OK, although I agree with you that you may need more adult shots this week and both adult shots are wonderful, plus the fairy is so unusual…but here is the thing about the first shot – on top of the great composition, you managed to get a shot that totally grabs you and expresses so much, even with her eyes closed. I personally think it is really hard to convey much with a closed-eye shot so this one really stands out to me.

I loved the fairy photo from Hats week – so that would be my pick! But, the model release might be tricky…so in that case I would pick the one of your daughter!

I love the self-portrait! That’s my pick!

Your little girl.. hands down. Because, down the road, when you look at the book, THAT’S the one you’ll want to see in there! The fairy pic is beautiful, no doubt, but there’s no real meaning attached to it. Your girl, on the other hand? TOO special not to put in there. And someday, when she has a little girl of her own, she can open the book, point to the picture, and say “See what Grandmama did?” ;<)

These are all terrific shots. But, I adore the fairy. That shot is intriguing and makes me want to know more about her. ?
