#320 I love my entry because it shows how much fun our two boys have with their daddy. The youngest is 10 months old so he can’t quite get in on the fun, but if he can at least be near them while they are wrestling and playing than he is happy as pie :)

I also like that you can’t really see my hubby or my oldest son completely, but you get a sense that they are there in the background and that they are having fun!

This is my first time linking up and I am so glad it’s Let’s Hear it for the Boys!! With 2 sons, that is one thing I know about. :) So glad I found this site. Great for the novice to be given some challenges.

I am learning so much from this site! I did a picture from a Civil War re-enactment that we we went to a few weeks ago. I am number 98. So many great photos so far. Thanks for allowing me to participate!

I posted one of my favorite pictures of my husband and oldest son. It’s labeled “My hard workers” (#300 at the moment) and to me it’s such a sweet representation of how much Austin wants to be just like his Daddy.

This is my first entry (#299) ever. I’m a barely-amateur mom photographer who loves to get good shots of her adorable red-head ;) I just thought it would be fun to link up, and see all the other shots too. Great for ideas! Thanks for inspiring us!

Super excited to see this challenge come up…I’ve got twin boys and if that wasnt enough, I just did a Father’s Day photo session for my husband this weekend. So, I had great new shots to choose from! Looking forward to seeing everyone’s entries!!!

I’m #285 at the moment. My photo is of the day a friend brought us our son’s first RC truck one day while we were at the park, and it had gone over near the pavillion but he didn’t wanna go get it ’cause he said it was to scary over there. He eventually did after us telling him that he was big enough to go get it himself :P

We had a great time at our son’s Karate BBQ this past weekend so why not take the opportunity to get a cool shot of my oldest (age 6) breaking a board! Check it out #270 and leave some love at http://fairytaledreamsphotography.com/i-heart-faces-contest-another-entry.html

My photo this week is #271 – Cheeky Monkey. I love the mischief my great-nephew brings to the photo – it’s like there’s something brewing. He had just gotten out of the pool. My photo was a little too blown out (bright sunlight), so I took that to the extreme with the post-processing.

Kirsten–this is the first photo contest I’ve ever posted to before too! I LOVE the photo you entered! SO cute :) This site is really fun and love checking out everyone’s photos.

Here is my entry: http://sesslerphotography.com/2011/06/20/i-heart-faces-photo-challenge-let%E2%80%99s-hear-it-for-the-boys/

This photo is of my little boy Luke (middle) who is meeting his cousins for the first time. He is a little overwhelmed and has such a cute pouty lip, but his cousins are so happy. Love them!

I’ve never entered a photo contest before, but i’ve been enjoying your blog & had to submit my last vacation photo! I’m no professional, just a mom from NC with a new camera & loving taking pics of my kids. Hope you enjoy!

my entry is my nephew, when I was doing a photoshoot for them last christmas. the picture is slightly blurry, but I love it anyways because it shows the motion of his laughter while I was taking the picture. the best part though, is how happy he is! (#238 for now)

the other ones are so awesome also – i’m having so much fun looking at everyone’s entries!

Right now I’m #204 (Wild Thing)

This certain little boy was just photographed three our four days ago as Max from Where the Wild Things Are and was quite the little imp…a perfect Max to be sure.

I’ve been checking out a few of the other entries and have been enjoying the various shots entered in this week’s contest.

LOVE this challenge! I have one boy, and zero girls. Needless to say, I don’t have a lot of fluffy pink gauzy photos. Lots of dirt, and running, and BUGS… ! AND, this week my boy is away at Scout Camp for the first time ever, so I love having a big ol’ pic of him on my blog. I’ve visited it about 4222 times already this morning. Not that I miss him or anything. Nope, not me….

Being that we literally put our family vacation on the back burner after being 8 hours in route to our destination (we literally turned around when the call came in & cancelled all plans) – in order for my hubs to head to the wildfires in AZ- I thought this week’s theme was perfect for this shot of his boys out there fighting those fires. Since they may be going back- I may soon have many more shots like this to share. They sacrifice so much- makes me so proud.

My entry is a picture of my newest boy. He was born at 34 weeks, and has been quite a fighter even before he was born. He’s a joy to his dad, brother and me, and I just had to share a snapshot of the big blue eyes that capture so many who come into contact with him.

I love this challenge! It’s the perfect opportunity to post our favorite photo of my husband with his little girl when she was 3 months old, just last summer. I love that it shows his adoration for “his little lady.” Right now, I’m #167, or better yet here is the link:

Lots of cute boys this week. Good luck all.

All of my boys, sans my hubby, belong to friends, so chose one of them to represent.

I had the great pleasure of shooting a 3-family/cousins outing on Saturday….these two boys are brothers and they captured my heart with their love of being together and being best friends. So many great shots, but I thought this one, grooving in their element, captured them best!

I hate to admit it, but I only recently realized that my boys are the most fascinating subject matter to photograph. They have so much history written on their faces already, and so much more to discover.

Everyday is an adventure…

Aww love this challenge! My poor boys are constantly being chased by my lens, thankfully they’re pretty obliging most the time. This is a pretty typical shot of them… http://www.flickr.com/photos/knellybelly/5851926268/in/photostream the tickle monster out in full force! (I’m #55) Already so many great shots posted, yay!
