Today’s my birthday! And this morning I got a birthday email from one of my best friends that said, “I expect to see pictures of you in a hat with a noisemaker blowing out candles on a colorful cake. Please make that happen.” I don’t think she thought I would do it, but that’s where she would be wrong!
I usually make a big deal out of my birthday, but this year I almost totally forgot about it until about a week ago. I’m actually celebrating my birthday tomorrow with my husband and some friends, but I had to do something today, so I decided to obey her command, so here are just some fun self-portraits on my birthday (a little out of focus, but I’m going with ‘em).
And as always, someone started whining that they weren’t getting enough attention, so I grabbed my little girl for some birthday shots.
Enjoy, Aubrey! I hope these lived up to your expectations!

The last one’s awesome. Guess you’re feeling better? Happy birthday! BTW, I like your longer hair, it’s cute!
These are great pictures. Did you do them with a timer and tripod? Really like these!
Huzzah! What an awesome ending to my night! Did you just happen to have all the ingredients for my recommendation laying around the house? I could not be more pleased.
@Kristy: Yeah, feeling quite a bit better… been fighting off this headache all day still, but I’m not going to complain after last night’s migraine! Thanks about the hair! I keep saying I’m going to chop it all off when I reach my goal weight… but my hair might be down to my butt at the rate I’m going!
@Eric: Thanks! Yeah, I used a tripod & a remote.
@Aubrey: Umm, nope, I ran a couple special errands to gather supplies just for your request, but it was worth it. Plus, I needed cake for my birthday! Glad you enjoyed it!
Fantastic photos, love the last one of you and your little girl. I hope you had a great day on your birthday and a good dinner withyour hubby and friends.
Could you explain how you framed yourself/focus? Did you use a mirror?
