Moments Matter Photo Challenge
Since my photography journey began some 14 years ago, I have grown so much. I’ve learned about f-stops and the ins and outs of exposure –yes. But one lesson photography has taught me stands out above the rest.
While capturing the simplest things I have learned to appreciate my life as it is *right now,* instead of wishing for better days ahead. I’m so thankful for the way my camera offers me gentle reminders to slow down, and enjoy life’s moments as they happen.
Join us using Hashtag #MomentsMatter2017
I’d love for you join our free, 30-day Moments Matter photo challenge, starting January 1st.
For 30 days, I’ll share a photo prompt, as well as a photo example as an inspiration point in the private Moments that Matter Facebook group. My hope is that each prompt will inspire you to capture an everyday, meaningful moment and that by participating you’ll kickstart a year of purposeful photography in 2017!
I look forward to rubbing shoulders with you as we tag our photos with #MomentsMatter2017 on Instagram and build each other up, as both moms and photographers.
Together let’s hone in on the moments we truly want to hold on to and use our cameras as a tool that helps us see more clearly the things that matter most.

Thank you for this! I did find it incredibly inspiring. I got a new camera for Christmas and have resolved that this is the year I finally stop using the auto setting and learn about f-stops, exposure, and all of those happy things! I’m joining the moments that matter group now!
