    My fave thing to take a snapshot of is my children, of course. Not just them, but I like to capture their surrounding and the things that make them happy at any given point. I don't know how many times I have gone back to look at a special toy of my daughter's or my son's collection of Power Rangers or the little people he used to carry around. I like to keep and want to remember all those little things in their lives and ours.

  38. My husband is a photographer. He is always in the strangest positions, high or low, trying to get just the right angle. I love snapping photos of him in these crazy positions with camera up to his eye. So fun! I would make an album for him of all of these shots. :-)

    Definitely moments of life when my subject doesn't know I'm there.

    ReplyDelete
  41. At the risk of sounding cliche...my kids always end up being the subject of my favorite snapshots. I can't get enough of seeing a small part of their personalities frozen in time. That being said, I need all the albums, I can get!

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete

  45. I want to say something creative and different, but I would be lying if I didn't say my favorite thing to take a snapshot of is my family.

    Great giveaway!

    ReplyDelete
  46. I love to scare people with the camera and then snap one! I'm known for whipping around and saying 'Boo!' and then snapping the (usually hideous and hilarious) reaction.

    ReplyDelete
  47. Favorite thing to snapshot would be my everyday life. Life definitely isn't always like a vacation, so why only take pictures then?

    ReplyDelete
  48. veeeeeeeeeeeeeery cute.
    my favorite thing to photograph is my daughter + my husband. a very cute combo.

    ReplyDelete

  66. i am not going to be very original but it is definitely my kid. he is the best subject ever.

    ReplyDelete
  67. I love to photograph two groups: one is my niece and nephews and the other is the group of junior high kids I volunteer with at church.

    Those junior high kids get to play the wackiest games and they are so very vulnerable in the small group discussion time. I try to take as many snapshots of the kids as I can so that I can blog about them for the parents but also for the yearly album I put together for each school year.

    I already own Kolo albums. LOVE them.

    ReplyDelete
  68. after i snap shots of my 6 kids...i like to take pictures of the mess they have created, their wake of distruction. Why you ask, because soon enough it will all be gone. I will miss their messes, or so I have been told. :o)

    ReplyDelete
  69. I enjoy taking pictures of my 10-year-old daughter and 8-year-old son out in nature. They are best friends. I also enjoy taking pictures of them reading good books to one another.

  79. i take pictures of everything. seriously. and that's why i became a photographer (a natural choice, i might say). but i'm terrible about priting out photos, or making albums. these looks gorgeous!

    i probably take the most snapshots of my husband or of our nieces + nephews.

    ReplyDelete
  80. My kids, of course. And I love Kolo albums. They make great mom/grandma gifts.

    ReplyDelete
  81. i have to go with the cliche and say that i love snapshotting my kiddos. so much fun.

    woohoo! I love to snap my fiance. He's so handsome but he isn't coonvinced of this, so he's not all proud of himself. He's bashful and quirky.

    ReplyDelete
  84. My kids :) I probably take close to 50 pictures a day.

    ReplyDelete
  85. My daughter Elleanor! She has a very expressive face so it is fun to try and capture all her moments. Kolo albums are so beautiful!

    ReplyDelete
  86. Tropical-blue-colored water. Can be pool water or sea water. A disposable Kodak underwater camera works wonders. Even if they are fuzzy and out of focus, the color makes me happy.

    ReplyDelete
  87. Perfect! I've been looking for an easy solution as I've been making my own with bookcloth and they take FOREVER! I love taking pictures of my kids..and other people's kids.

    ReplyDelete

  92. I love giveaways :) Especially when they involve getting my photos organized. I have so many pictures saved on my pc it might start being a problem. lol. I love taking pictures of anything that inspires me. From the smallest pebble with an intersting design, to the way wood chars at a bonfire. Everything is unique and fun to snap, just look at it a bit differently and youll appreiciate the beauty :)

    ReplyDelete
  93. My favorite things to snapshot are my little friends and all places I go to.

    ReplyDelete
  94. I've been participating in Becky Higgins Project 365/Project Life where you take a picture a day everyday. Rather than taking pictures of big moments I've been focusing on some of the littler things in our life. I've loved trying to capture an accurate view of our life. So my answer is LIFE. I love taking snapshots of my life. :)
