Together with five other Oregon photographers I am continuing a lifestyle blogging project entitled "What ___________ looks like," an idea inspired by a group of photographers out of Montana. On the third Monday of each month I will fill in the blank with my own word or concept, and link to the next photographer's blog until the circle is complete. I hope you take the time to enjoy this monthly photographic journey, and enjoy each of our monthly projects.
What {Melon Mayhem} looks like.
I had the extreme pleasure of capturing the very first
birthday party of the son of a dear friend (and
amazing photographer), Julia –
and quite honestly – had the BEST time. Julia was able to simply enjoy her time
celebrating her baby’s very first (and DARLING) birthday party, and not worry
about picking up her camera to capture the moments.
I adored the theme, who doesn’t love The Very Hungry
Caterpillar? When Mr. Dean started nibbling on watermelon during dinner… I
thought to myself, now here’s an opportunity for some really fun pictures, not
knowing I’d be contributing to Melon Mayhem.
Clearly the images speak for themselves, and I can’t help
but crack up, as I wonder how Julia will “get me back” as she threatened in the
midst of the sticky, juicy silly mess of it all…
In the end, I have to wonder if this is better than a cake
smash?
Melon Mayhem… It’s going to be a trend!
(Ha!)
 |
| Cutest theme ever... |
 |
| Beginning of the end. A little nibble, leads to inspired Mayhem! |
 |
| One of my favorite images. The pure joy and slight mortification of mama as she realizes whats happening here... |
 |
| Mama can nuzzle all she wants... I'm still eating this delicious melon. |
 |
| Yeah, baby! Squishy! |
 |
| Can this be considered chaff? |
 |
| Drippy goodness |
 |
| Not letting a bit go to waste. |
 |
| All done - all sticky! |
 |
| The only real way to wash off in Central Oregon. With a Deschutes Brewery Growler filled with warm water. |
 |
| All clean. All cozy. |
You want some watermelon now, don't you!?
Now, head on over to Alisa Hayes' website and see what she's been up to this month!
