Welcome to my new blogsite!
...very proud to be part of the Clickin Moms "I Am a Photographer" campaign, which made its video debut this morning!
http://www.clickinmoms.com/iam
This project combines a series of photographers' self-portraits in an effort to raise money and awareness for
RAINN, the nation’s largest anti-sexual assault organization. One in six women is a victim of sexual assault; if you’d like to help raise more money to help stop this awful violence, there are a couple options and links at the end of the video.
My "I Am a Lego Maniac" (around 04:42) is one of the more lighthearted submissions☺ but there are so many inspiring and moving portraits throughout... I was wiping away tears by the end.

Getting back into the swing of things with my first photo challenge of the new year...
More cute bookworms
here.☺
Well, behind that pretty face (and adorable-belly-turned-baby-girl!) is a a whole lotta gifted & talented. Momma, teacher, author, fitness instructor, crafter, and someone I am proud to call a good friend
♥... even if I've never made it to her 6a.m. spin class.☺
I'm very excited to help celebrate the launch of Maria's newest book with a guest post on her blog today
(5 Tips for Photographing Your Own Kids, also archived
here), as well as a little giveaway.
One commenter will receive an autographed copy of Pink Tiara Cookies for Three and a cute tiara cookie cutter to boot!

...Sami’s perfect life falls apart when the new girl moves in next door. Sami doesn’t need another friend, she has Stella. They are the perfect example of best friends. Mittens come in pairs and so do friends, according to Sami.
Bullying can be very subtle, but it hurts just the same. Three can be a tricky number with friends because most of the time, someone gets left out. Follow Sami as she discovers how to keep her best friend and find room for one more in Pink Tiara Cookies for Three...
You can pick up your own copy on
Amazon, or an autographed book directly through
mariadismondy.com. Also, be sure to check out
Maria's blog tour over the next week for more fun links and giveaways.
1 commenter will be randomly selected on Wed, Jan 25th to receive an autographed book + cookie cutter.
