It was hard.
But in the end, I chose this picture of Victoria, taken the very last day of 2011. Just days after she graduated from college.
There are a whole slew of absolutely stunning photos entered in the I Heart Faces “Best Face Photo of 2011” challenge.
Like this one.
And this one.
As the rules would have it, I can only choose from pictures that I have taken. Which is really quite limiting.
But I do truly love this one. It’ll be sitting on my nightstand soon.
It’s special to me because it captures my biggest baby at such a pivotal time in her life. She’s just about to venture out on her own for the first time.
And it captures her as she is – happy, carefree and… dadgum it, so very young and beautiful.
Enjoy your youth, my love. Enjoy it.

What beautiful textures!
Very pretty! Her eyes are just gorgeous… the tones in this photo are so natural, I adore it!
The image is just outstanding – brilliant work. And at the risk of sounding like a ‘funny uncle’ – the model is, in fact, simply beautiful! That pic just says “I have the whole world at my feet – my whole life in front of me” – brilliant!
hugs – aus and co.
She has the most gorgeous skin/eyes!! Yet…another beautiful entry I have had the pleasure to view.
I can see why you chose it!! Something about the child that made you a mama! And Victoria doesn’t take a bad pcture does she?!
I reckon it would’ve been a super hard pick, considering you have SO MANY BEAUTIFUL faces in your family! You did good – its a stunning picture!
