I love love love to photograph the North Shore of Minnesota. The most beautiful & peaceful place ever!

wendy said...

My husband and I have so many self-portraits of us together. You know the kind, hold out the camera as far as you can and smoosh your faces together. Those are always my favorite. Some of them have even turned out so good we used them for the Christmas card.

Tanya said...

My kids. That's really my only subject.

Celiece said...

I love to take pictures that show my kids and their current personality and interests!

sherry said...

I love Kolo albums --- love. They are just beautiful.

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.

Ashley said...

My favorite thing to photography is my 2 year old Grayson. I'm so glad we got a good camera before he was born.

Hil said...

As if my blog didn't already tell you.. my favorite thing to photograph is my little guy. What a great giveaway!

Hannah said...

Other than my kids, my favorite thing to photograph is food.

Lila said...

Hands down I love to snap pics of my daughter (14000 pics last year-opps!) But a close second are the cupcakes I bake.

smileynann said...

I would LOVE an album! Like everyone else, I'm sure to take pictures of the kids... but one of my favorite other things to take pictures of is their messes!

Amy said...

My little one year old girl is my all-time favorite subject. Before her, it was food and nature.

Eileen said...

ooh I've been thinking about getting one of these albums! As far as snapshot favorites, I love capturing moments on adventure trips with my husband :)

Miss Mary said...

I love to take pics of trees! Not sure why, but I have so many pictures of trees. They are so amazing to me! Thanks for the giveaway!

LMT said...

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. :-)

Cass said...

wow, awesome giveaway!!

i love to snap my two wee boys ... now 6 months and 18 months ... there's certainly lots to document!!

Anonymous said...

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

Unknown said...

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!

cleverly content said...

love to take family photos...since they are such memory keepers.

kwindell said...

I love Kolo albums. i use the mini mini ones for my boys. I try and fill up one a month for them. You can never take enough pictures of the kiddos, can you?

Anonymous said...

I love snapshots of my babes....and my handsome husband too!martifife@hotmail.com

Jules said...

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!

Alana said...

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.

Andrea S. said...

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

mj said...

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

Courtney said...

Random, but I love taking pictures of vintage-looking signage and store fronts that use unique, old-school fonts.

Heather said...

i can't handle how much i love snapshots of my 3 little dudes. i think family and friends are the most important things to remember.

poo kah loo said...

I love taking snapshots of my beautiful kids! The ones that are candid always turn out the best!

Michelle said...

Kolo is awesome! My favorite subject is my son Finnegan, but a close second is our poodle, Monty.

Thanks!

Vanessa Rae said...

I love taking photos of the everyday. Inspired by "Habit" and "3191". Not letting the everyday memories slip away!

carol said...

my favorite thing to photograph is my 4 boys (3 + 1 hubby) is the everyday action when no one is watching me snap the camera. i love just catching them in the moment of life not just smiling for the camera!

Andria said...

I am loving taking pictures of my pups. They run around all the time so to get a good photo takes a lot of patience.

Love.Peace.Happiness said...

My favorites are: My family; especially my two boys, my husband and the everyday life!! I love taking pictures!!!

Kelly said...

I love to snap people, but I also really love to take pictures of delicious meals! Who doesn't love to relive a wonderful feast :)

Kelly said...

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

sunny said...

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.

Arrica said...

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)

Mel said...

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.

Cat said...

I'd like to say that I like to capture the snow we are getting TODAY but it would be a lie... I'll go with the blogland family and say that my kids and husband make for very good pictures!

Alex said...

Adam and Laura said...

my hubby with our new baby

mary plus vince said...

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.

aly said...

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

debby said...

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

Amanda said...

People and skylines are my favorite things to shoot!

AMANDA W. said...

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.

stickfigure710@aol.com

Crystal Johnson said...

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

Are we there yet? said...

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!

Kerry said...

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.

Book Worm said...

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.

Krista said...

Oh, this is easy. My favorite thing to shoot is my favorite little things in the world - my boys!! Love pics of their feet, profile, hands, eyes...

The Schoonmakers said...

My kids of course!

Sara said...

Thanks!
katie

erin said...

that's a no-brainer! my daughter of course...and in about a month, my soon-to-be-born son as well:)

Becky said...

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 :)

[eeny] said...

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

stacey said...

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. :)

Tiffany said...

I love taking pictures of my black lab and the adventures we have with my husband! Thank you for the great blog and great give away!
