I can&#8217;t wait to make glossy, beautiful coffee table books for the grandparents and for us too.  I had a request to show some of the process we go through to get her photos each week and to see some of the outtakes.<\/p>\n<p>Since its winter, the light isn&#8217;t the best. So lately, my photos have had noise &#038; some motion blur.  But oh well!! I just do my best and that&#8217;s all I can do.<\/p>\n<p>This morning Scarlett was not in a happy mood.  She was a total roller coaster.  She was tired and grouchy one minute.  (I&#8217;m leaving all of these uncropped so you can see the process)<\/p>\n<p><center><img src=http:\/\/i70.photobucket.com\/albums\/i104\/designerbrittney\/Blog%20Stuff\/Outtake1.jpg width=600><\/center><\/p>\n<p>And happy and crazy the next minute!<\/p>\n<p><center><img src=http:\/\/i70.photobucket.com\/albums\/i104\/designerbrittney\/Blog%20Stuff\/Outtake2.jpg width=600><\/center><\/p>\n<p>If I&#8217;m lucky (like today), Josh still hasn&#8217;t left for work yet, so he can help me get her to look up, not roll away, and get a good picture.  Today, the method was holding up our Ariel Animator&#8217;s doll.  This seemed to keep her attention.<\/p>\n<p><center><img src=http:\/\/i70.photobucket.com\/albums\/i104\/designerbrittney\/Blog%20Stuff\/Outtake3.jpg width=600><\/center><\/p>\n<p>I was so excited to finally get to use this snowy fabric.  We haven&#8217;t had any snow this season!! I couldn&#8217;t believe it was the end of January and we are just now seeing any snow!  <\/p>\n<p>She&#8217;s getting so big now I have to stand up on a chair!<\/p>\n<p><center><img src=http:\/\/i70.photobucket.com\/albums\/i104\/designerbrittney\/Blog%20Stuff\/Outtake4.jpg width=600><\/center><\/p>\n<p>I really wanted her to show us one of her tricks, like clapping or peek-a-boo or &#8216;so big&#8217;.  But she was no cooperating whatsoever.  So, we just gotta go with what she wants to do.<\/p>\n<p><center><img src=http:\/\/i70.photobucket.com\/albums\/i104\/designerbrittney\/Blog%20Stuff\/Outtake5.jpg width=600><\/center><\/p>\n<p>And here&#8217;s the final picture with the photoshopped number.  I FINALLY got her a new white onesie this week.  She&#8217;s 10 months old and I was still squeezing her into her same 0-3 month one!  Can you believe it?!  We had stretched it out to the max.<\/p>\n<p><center><a href=\"http:\/\/farm8.staticflickr.com\/7016\/6761171079_d353e3f6c2_o.jpg\"><img src=http:\/\/farm8.staticflickr.com\/7016\/6761171079_d353e3f6c2_o.jpg width=600><\/a><\/center><\/p>\n<p>Some weeks its really easy and I can get the shot I want in a few snaps (well, let&#8217;s be honest, I&#8217;ve never taken less than 20).  But most weeks its a longer process.  And then some weeks it&#8217;s a struggle and I end up frustrated as does Scarlett.  One of the hardest weeks, I was on my own (no Josh to help) and had to take over 160 frames to get a good one.  But we try to make it a happy, fun project and not get too stressed out about it.<\/p>\n<p>(You can see all Scarlett&#8217;s weekly photos on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/23938230@N07\/sets\/72157626271087105\/\">my Flickr stream<\/a>.)<\/p>\n<p>Has anyone out there started a weekly, monthly baby photo project?
