photobooth friday


city museum, st. louis, december 2004

"I want to get in the booth BY MYSELF," she said.

well, okay then. quite frankly, her request took me by surprise. ward and I were so caught up with figuring out who would get into the booth next and how we would mix it up and did we have enough one dollar bills to take all the strips we wanted and yada yada yada. I didn't even think she was paying any real attention to what we were doing. and so that girl of mine looked at us mysteriously, hopped into the booth, slid the curtain shut and did her thang. all we could see were two sweet feet dangling and the consecutive flashes of the booth. always melting my heart, that ava-girl.

  6. love this idea andrea!

    little ava - so cute how she posed!

    thanks for mentioning me, even though i'm in cognito. on the hunt today - if all goes well! they do exist up here, the only one that comes to mind is in north van, which means we need a car. but i'm going to see if i can locate another nearby.

  8. I'm up, I'm up, I'm up.

    And god, how beautiful is Ava? Something about the black and white making the 2000's vintage.

    Great idea. I stoked to be part!

  10. cute! I love her expression. Isn't it sweet when the little ones start to show their independence?

    Oh, and I have a new entry for today, if you want to change your link it's at http://tickytacky.typepad.com/tickytacky/2006/01/photobooth_frid_1.html

    Maybe we can start a blogger page to post these updates to, like self-portrait Tuesday, Illustration Friday, and the like!? Easy for me to say, huh, since you'd be the one who had to find time to set it all up. If you do want to do that, and you need any help, let me know!

  14. Woo-Hoo!!! I found you through Abby Marie...I have loved photo booth photos for as loooooong as I can remember, and am so excited for this brilliant idea. Yippie! I used a photo booth photo (PBP?) for my SPT this week, so if it's OK with you I'll count that for my submission this week. But I have plenty and I would love to play! Thanks for the great idea!

    And I love your Ava photo. She is beautiful and has such personality!
