  4. I believe I can see the colours arising and uncoil the stories behind them from the obscurity of my lenses. Life is so beautiful, but what could it be if we do not stop and stare? ๐Ÿ™‚

  5. I have been taking pictures since I was a little girl but it has always just been a hobby until recently. I have always been to afraid to fail until i realized it’s ok….to be me. it’s ok to not be the greatest, and it’s ok to fail sometimes. So I have started my own photography business. So through my lens I see love, love for myself…I see 2 boys with great big eyes that love me no matter what, I see life….a life that is fun to be living. I would love this necklace to remind myself of just what is really most important. xo

  6. I see love through my lens. I am a 90% stay at home mom and 10% professional photographer. I have my camera on my kitchen counter most days, and love to capture the moments of our day as they happen. My camera gives me the freedom to create, to capture and to celebrate love and beauty all around me. ๐Ÿ™‚

  7. My lil girl drawing, my bub desperately trying to crawl and the love of my life making me a cup of tea x. Oh and my iPhone displaying your luvly blog

  8. This weekend I photographed my dear friends funeral. So through my lens I saw a life cut too short, but lived to the fullest. I saw four beautiful children left behind, and her soul mate struggling to find his place in life without her at his side. but I also saw hope, that she will not be forgotten and that her legacy will live on.

  9. My husband John had wanted the Canon EOS 1 forever and a day. So April of 2008 I told him to get it if he wanted. So he did he carried that camera every where he went. Then on Nov 1, 2008 he passed away. So now everytime i look at it or use it I see John. He was my husband, lover, best friend and soul mate. And I miss him dearly . Lynda

  10. Through my lens, I see a wonderful husband who is not only trying to save his own business through these hard economic times, but also waitering on the side and going to real estate school just so I can stay at home with my 3 girls, 11, 8 and 19 months old. I have always wanted to get a necklace from your company but have not dared ask him for the money to get one.
    He would love that there’s a camera on the charm because I am always taking photos.:)

  11. Through my lens I see a little boy that turned two for real, and then also in his attitude! I see a little boy who…
    …insists that his toys eat breakfast with us, including their own cereal.
    …insists on decorating the back yard/his fort with a bottle of sprinkles and then getting them everywhere
    ….insists that he must have robot cake for breakfast, the day after his birthday
    …..knows what he wants. Clearly knows.
    …..knows how to give puppy kisses with gusto….

  12. i see my clients and their beautiful babies. i see magnificent every day moments. i see high school seniors who are trying to find the balance between being a kid still, but wanting to grow up. i see lovely prego bellies and a mother’s love for her unborn child. i see families loving each other like crazy.
    i see the goodness of life. thanks!

  13. Through my lens, I see my sister-in-law…who is an incredible professional photographer..who has worked for the same newspaper for the last 35 years! She is so inspirational..I would love to give her this wonderful necklace!!!

  14. Through my lense I usually see my two happy beautiful kiddos. I love photography, and I’m going to have to put one of these neckalaces on my Christmas list if I don’t win one!

  15. Wow…how fun. Our oldest daughter calls her blog “through my lens”. She has been doing a little portrait photography in the last couple of years. I think my favorite photo op waiting to happen is our new dog….Molly. Our kids are grown and gone and she is our little one for now…..she is so darn cute and does the funniest things that I’m constantly snapping pics of her.

  16. I love the way you think outside of the box as we say here in the UK, I love the way you brought two of your passions together to create a unique piece.

    I guess I would see through my lens a life waiting to be lived.

  17. I see all that is important to me and all that is important enough to capture and share – all thru my lens. Great piece – I love it. Thanks for the giveaways!

  18. I usually have my video camera and through it’s lens I see opportunities and the rapid passing of time. My children change so fast and even though I don’t feel much different than last year; the lens shows that I have changed – hopefully for the better.

  19. Through my lens a see a community coming together to help my friends family who lost everything in the flood. Never doubt the kindness of strangers:)

  20. I see my girls through my lens. When they were born, when they went through their “firsts”, when they started school, in sports, graduating from high school, getting out on their own, graduating from college, married and now getting married and ALL the other things in-between. I love how a camera can catch the lives of our children, even though we don’t need it to remember all the ups, downs, and cherished times. Time flies when you’re taking picture.

  21. i facebook’d…actually..i am making a quilt and the lady said in the directions i am using to take a photo of the colors in place and or look thru the lense to see if it looks right ! so it must provide ‘focus’..

  22. I have been interested in photography since at least high school. Throughout my adult life, my friends and family know that where I go, my camera goes too! I am so glad to have all of the images over the years and the memories they bring back for me. Right now, I am trying to capture as much of my boys’ lives as possible. Time always seems to be slipping away, photography helps me capture a piece of it!

  23. I see beauty..and since photography is my passion…when I look thru the lens I feel such a peace and yet such a high so to speak …I know it’s where I was meant to be..behind that lens

  24. I am so blessed to see my newborn son (two weeks old) and his wonderful, loving big brother. They just warm my heart so much!

  25. I see the potential of all the goodness here at this new-to-us 1928 old bungalow house. Oh, the many projects but oh, the sweat equity and enjoyment we can have in the end.

  26. through the lens of my flip video camera I saw my three year old acting silly and jumping on the bed . . . I also saw the unfortunate fall from the bed to the floor. All is thankfully well now.

  27. I see joy, happiness, pride, sillyness, wonder, discovery and unconditional love all in the big blue eyes of my precious, beloved almost three year old daughter.

  28. I see happy kids, grand-kids, and very happy grandparents/parents!!
    By the way I just got the necklace I ordered for my daughter’s birthday…I LOVE IT!!! You do beautiful work!

  29. Through my lens I see a messy house, undergoing construction for water damage yet still weeks later…yet I also see a growing up way too fast, awkward 13 year old girl….a nervous, shy 11 year old boy concerned about how he will do in middle school this year….and a confident, ready to go, sad to see her leave 19 year old getting her room packed for college in a week…..I see a very full, busy life through my lens!!!!

  30. Through my lens I see my daughter & her wonder & the way that God shows me that I am his child. I see big meaning in tiny moments & big big love.

  31. Through my lens, I see myself wearing be still one of my MANY favorite necklaces from Lisa. Be Still reminds me to stop and take in what is going on around me and be still. It works every time. Thank you Lisa for bringing your gifts into my daily life. I am in awe of your talent. Best Shauna

  32. ..the tiny moments that make life worth living. Whether it’s a babies first smile, or the delicate whisp of a dandelion puff up close – all of the tiny moments bring the greatest joy to my life. Capturing those moments makes the joy last an eternity.

  33. I also carry my camera everywhere. Through my lens my favorite thing to see is my two little angels. Today through my lens I am capturing my daughter’s third birthday!

  34. Through my lens, I see a captured moment of life that I can now hold onto forever. The world does not always look the same through the lens as it does through my eye but I never want to forget! Which is the greatest reason to always be checking out what it looks like through the lens.

  35. Oh heavens! I love this necklace!
    I see past, present and future through my lens. I can see where I have come from, where I am, and I like to imagine where I will be. What I can see through my lens gives me hope, and joy. ๐Ÿ™‚

  36. I take my camera everywhere…you never know when you want to capture a moment to remember forever. I have A LOT of memories! and A LOT of photos of son playing sports!

  37. Through my lens I see two kids who are growing up way to fast, an amazing husband…and lots of food. ๐Ÿ™‚ I have a thing for taking photos of food. ๐Ÿ™‚

    What a lovely necklace Lisa! Thanks for the chance to have one of these lovlies to call our own. ๐Ÿ™‚

    Aby

  38. Through my lens I see life. My children’s everyday lives, the life outdoors in the flowers, trees, birds and butterflies. I see sunrises and sunsets. And I see architecture…old buildings, farmhouses and barns. I love your new necklace!

  39. Through my lens~ I see life as it is happening & am thankful for it! I see my 4 year old using his hands when he tells me a story – and I see myself in him. In the next moment, I see him using his imagination to whip-up an amazing meal – and I see my husband in him. ๐Ÿ™‚ I love my little man!!

  40. for some reason everything looks so different through my lens; i see time stand still, i see the way sun light shines through the tree, or they way my little girls look at me, the way his eyes see through me. looking through my lens I feel invisible.

  41. I do love what I see through the lens, my two kids! And of course my husband and friends, but I think at least 75% of my picture are of my kids.

  42. I see (saw) myself missing too much because I was glued behind the lens. I see that I have to come out from behind the lens to actually experience more. I don’t want to always look at things from a “past” perspective, but more from the “here and now”!

  43. Lisa – through my “lens” I see my dad fighting a battle with bladder cancer… love your new creation…. enjoy your blog too!

  44. Through my lens, I see my 11 year old starting a new chapter of his life called middle school – new friends, new teachers, new experiences! Best part is seeing him so happy and eager for it all!!

  45. Through my lens I see our perfectly imperfect life, and memories just waiting to be captured……and enjoyed again & again.

  46. I am always taking pictures with my phone. I see memories in the making thru my lens. Walks of every life along my path. I love all aspects… (:

  47. I see tiny things, everything from the smallest flower, to my little guy (who isn’t so little anymore), no matter what though if I’m taking the picture you can bet that a macro lens is involved. ๐Ÿ™‚

  48. Through my lens I see the uniqueness of my five beautiful children ages 1,4,6,10 and 19 as well as love from my husband and family. I also see great friendship and the power of happiness. Next, but not least, I see a new grandbaby in the near future which brings about a lovely turn in my life.

    Lisa, you ideas are truly amazing!!!! Thank you for sharing with us!!!

  49. Through my lens I see my family. my babies. Capturing moments and freezing them in time. Finding that my children’s childhood is so quick that I want to grab moments and hold on to them. Capture them into precious memories. I love when a photo can so perfectly capture a moment, a laugh, a stage.

  50. Thgouth my lens I see my beautiful best friend who is a photographer and one of the hardest workers I know! She’s beautiful, talented and can light up a room with her smile! She and her mom started their own shop in the in the Northern CA area I can’t think of anyone else I’d like to give this gift to!!

  51. The little, beautiful moments that we too often miss because we’re too busy moving from place to place. Light, and sunshine, and smiles on the corners of people’s eyes. Imperfections coming together to make one beautiful, breathtaking scene. THAT is what I see.

    ps. reblogged this! http://patronum.org

  52. Through my lens I see life in a way that I can only see it & try to capture it and share with the world. I see beauty in the mundane and life in the dust. I see happiness in my family’s eyes and love shine out from their heart.

  53. I see a scrapbook page or layout, cute kid shots, a great scene or just the perfect moment captured through my lens! Great necklace! Posted on facebook!

  54. Through my lens I see that possibilities abound and that freedom from strife and striving can be just a breath away. Something about looking at life through the lens of a camera causes me to pause and to remember that everything can change in the click of a shutter and it’s worth my time to make each moment something I’m proud of.
    Thanks for the fun giveaway! ๐Ÿ™‚

  55. I see love. The love of my wonderful husband… the love of my gracious, God given family… Then love for them all in return.

    I also see hope… for whatever the Lord has in the future!

    Adore this necklace, by the way! You are so creative!

  56. Through my lens I see the loyal heart of my son, the softness of my daughter’s heart and my husband’s heart overflowing with unconditional love.

  57. I see my (almost one yr old) twin boys. They are IVF babies that we got to watch develop from what scientists call blastocysts, 5day old embryos/babies, through all of their stages of development inutero via ultrasound. They are now curious little fellows learning and exploring in the world around them. Precious Precious gifts!

  58. What I see is how precious life is and how I need to slow down and enjoy it more often. Carrying my camera has helped me slow down and absorb everything around me even when life gets hectic. I stops me for looking back and saying ” I wish I would of captured that moment”

    Stacey

  59. What a beautiful piece of jewelry! My children are 19 and 18 so the lens doesn’t capture them as often but when it does…I see beautiful young adults with expressions of anticipation for what God has in store for them!

  60. about 99% of the time what i’m seeing through my lens is my two sweet & sassy little boys! thanks for the chance at the giveaway!

    ps: keep sharing your cute outfits-i am amazed at what you pull together from pieces from target! you’re giving me lots of fun/affordable inspiration!!

  61. Through my camera I see details I’d never slow down or look close enough to notice – beauty where I never expected it. I capture instants in time that will be gone forever.

  62. Through my lens, I see my three daughters, who have grown into beautiful, confident, successful young women. I also see their beautiful children. My daughters and my seven grandchildren are the most special people I’ve ever captured with my camera. I am truly blessed.

  63. I am overwhelmed by noise… and so through my lens I see what was actually there minus the noise. Too bad when I download the pictures to my camera I must face a “new noise”, while trying to figure out how to categorize all those pictures. I would love any tips some of you seasoned photographers have for that. Another fabulous charm, thanks Lisa!

  64. I see all my darling new Kindergarten students coming today. I will be taking their picture and watching them grow through the year. What a blessing to be able to love going to work each and every day!

  65. I see my two little boys, beautiful and perfect…so full of life, possiblities, wonder, and innocence. Teaching me everyday about the beauty that can be found in the simplicity of everyday life.

  66. well, i must love this necklace because i just ordered one for my best friend’s 40th birthday – adorable for us scrappers! because that’s what i am, i see everything through my viewfinder (the good, the bad, the funny, the sad, the beautiful and the ugly – it’s all picture worthy for generations to come!)!

  67. Through my lens I see my new life with my husband. I also see the laugh and happiness. We just got married couple months ago ๐Ÿ™‚ I would like to win this, It would be wonderful.

  68. I see everything through my lens! I just got a nikon d90 two weeks ago (had a d50 for 5 years!) and my husband likes to joke that I got it surgically attached to my face at the store. Tee hee.

    Oh, my, that…and discovering Picnik after your recent post on photography…I have to work hard to put the camera down and be with my little family of four…not just photograph them. ๐Ÿ˜‰

    Such a sweet little necklace! Thank you for sharing your creativity with all of us. You are a great blessing!

  69. Through my lens I see three beautiful daughters that love the Lord. Thanks for all of your inspiring jewlery!

  70. I see life as it happens. The details and moments we’re too likely to forget. I see joy and hope and sadness, too. I see new life fresh from God, lives nearing their end and everything in between. And, most often, I see the two precious children that make everyday sweeter.

  71. Wow…….though my lens i see the past for what it was and the future for what it will be. I see my son growing into a man before my very eyes. I see him as he was at 2 years old – learning; exploring; all boy and sweetness too. I see him now, at 16, walking side by side with his daddy – learning; exploring; all boy and still some sweetness too. I see that as hard as I try to hang on to the past, I simply cannot and i must accept the changes and grow into the future. I see that one day he will leave this home of ours and make a home of his own in the world – and I will be proud of him then just as I am now.

    Love your pictures and your jewelry is amazing.

  72. I try an capture as much of life as I can, the day-to-day as well as the “big” moments. Mine, but most often my children.

  73. I see my grandchildren through my lens here in Northwest Ohio . But I would really like to win this for my daughter, who is a photographer in Delaware. Your pics are amazing and so is your jewelry:)

  74. Through my lens I see the sweet face of my daughter and the face of my son who is growing into a man before my eyes and I am thankful.

  75. Through my lens I see change, hope, possibility, remorse, pain, new beginnings, promises, acceptance, happiness, love.

  76. I found you through Cathy Zielske’s blog where she mentioned this new necklace today! It is such a cute necklace!!! I see the world around me through the lens, particularly the way light interacts and changes throughout the day.

  77. Through my lens, I see the change from Summer to Fall in a new way. I retired from 32 years of teaching and finally have the opportunity to slow down and enjoy the long, subtle change of the days as the leaves turn from vibrant green to a more faded and tattered shade. Our beautiful Rocky Mountains here in Denver are also welcoming cooler days and chilly evenings! It’s good to walk at a slower pace through these wonderful, rich days!

  78. Photography has slowed me down to see the beauty of and in God’s creation. Too see the detail as well as the overall grandness. And writing of grandness…as of June I have been photographing my first grandchild.

  79. I am taking pix of differernt college campuses as we visit each of them. My son is a senior in high school. Where did the time go ??? Enjoy your boys while they are little.

  80. Because of my lens, I see the world in a different way. I see the beauty in small things even when everything around it is in chaos. I see a good-looking husband, two rambunctious boys, and a cocker spaniel with deep brown eyes. I see clouds of pink, purple, orange, yellow, and grey. I see blooms and fruit and smiles.

    I would love a necklace to document the importance of photography in my life–I love the heart!

  81. Through my lens, I see a 2-year-old little boy who looks just like his daddy and wants to be just like him. Wants to mow the lawn, climb ladders, fix his truck, ride motorcycles, drive a truck, the whole shebang. I would not trade the joys of what I see for anything in the world.

  82. I see life unfolding in my boys running across the soccer field, in my garden, and smiling with their faces pressed against each other ‘again’! I capture the beauty God gave us on this Good Green Earth, in the mountains and at the Beach. I feel the warmth of a memory and the smile it brings to my face, and the laugh out loud when no one is around to here it . . . this is the joy my camera allows me to see!

  83. I see moments I really want to remember. I love how one old photo can bring back so many memories. Love your new neckace!

  84. Today when I look through my lens I see my wonderful hubby who I married 14 years ago TODAY. I like to compair the picture to our wedding picture and wonder where the time has gone. Today I also see my oldest standing proud to start first grade today. I love my lens – it shows how far we’ve come!

  85. thru my lens….i see life around me every single! day….life lived….joy-filled days…ho-hum ones…and really, really rough days too. grateful i am for my unique lens view.

  86. I see …
    our lovely eleven year old daughter.
    our six rescued dogs.
    all of God’s wonderful woods around our home.
    nature as no other God could create.
    the wrinkles on my face and my husband’s face after 20 years of marriage.

  87. Through my lens, I see time passing in front of me. Time going too fast. A snapshot here and there will slow it down.

  88. Through my lens, I see the everyday moments that make up the patchwork quilt of my life – my son that doesn’t smile for the camera, but lets out a huge shout of joy at a water ballon fight; my son whose beauty shines from the inside out and who’s belly laugh can’t help but make you smile; the quiet, peacefulness of the early morning while out on my run, the beauty of my husband’s smile when he finally relaxes.
    Thanks for the chance… ๐Ÿ™‚

  89. through my lens i see beautiful friends, i see new faces at college, i see old faces. i see and marvel at God’s creation. i see my family, my niece, adventures, animals, the beautiful world we live in.

  90. I see friendship and possibilities. I’m a Residence Coordinator for one of the residences at my university and this past weekend was first-year move in days. SO many new people and so many photos taken. With these new people come new friendships and new possibilities.

  91. My kids–my newly-four-year-old daughter as she continues growing up and away, but always coming back to check in with Momma and my 10 month old son just, just starting to learn about independence and separateness. Beautiful smiles, beautiful blue eyes, beautiful lives.

  92. Every picture I take is of my beautiful blue-eyed baby boy content and full of smiles and my complete opposite, precarious, brown-eyed four year old contanstly dancing.

  93. Through my lens I usually see things I am not expecting when I take the picture, or I see little fingerprints that got on my lens somehow…hmmmmm!!!

  94. I see my family and wonderful life through my lense. We are fortunate to live on 9.5 acres out in the country, and it is so peaceful out here. We love our country setting.

  95. Through my lens I see the start of a new school year with a great group of kids. I take a picture of everyone on the first day of school…and it goes into a DVD I make for everyone as a year-end gift. The parents who had me for younger grades were hoping I would do it again…and I am. ๐Ÿ™‚ Today was the first day of school in my area.

  96. Since my best clients are my babies…I see their lives held still for those couple of seconds that will last my lifetime and theirs. Like my wise husband told me, even if you don’t gain financially through this talent you’ve been blessed with by your Creator, at least our children will be able to look back at the great memories you’ve held still, while looking through your lens.

  97. I see 25 sweet 6 year old faces filled with excitement and innocence. Teaching 1st grade keeps you young and optimistic ๐Ÿ™‚

    ~Christy

  98. I see my daughter’s lovely brown eyes. She was born in rural southwest China and has brought joy and fulfillment to our midwest family.

  99. Since I am a photographer, I quite literally see the world. ๐Ÿ™‚ Nothing seems to escape me, even if I don’t have a camera nearby. I am constantly compelled to point out every interesting or beautiful thing. Mostly though, I see my sweet daughter. ๐Ÿ™‚

    Thank you for the opportunity to throw my hat in to win such an amazing necklace!

  100. Through my lens is see stories. Long ones, short ones, surprising ones, sweet ones; stories that were centuries in the making, and stories still untold. They call to me through my lens.

    So glad to have found your wonderful work, Lisa!

  101. Through my lens I see stories. Long ones, short ones, some that took centuries to unfold, some that are still untold. The stories call to me through my lens.

    So happy to have found your wonderful work, Lisa!

  102. Through my lens…I see little moments captured, making big memories.
    Amazing design. Thanks for the chance to win it!

  103. That necklace is just so adorable! I just got back from a fall afternoon walk, and I didn’t really walk- I spent the whole time stopped with my Nikon, taking pictures of leaves, apple trees, and spiders, LOL! I am so aware of the season through my lens. I will do a blog post sharing my pictures in a few days! i would love to be entered in this contest, thanks Lisa!!
    xo~michelle~

  104. Through my lens I see the future! My kids are (almost) 18 and 17 and I see them growing and learning and loving and laughing and in 10 years-maybe 12-bringing me grand-babies! I can hardly wait! But I will because in my lens I still see my babies…and I always will ๐Ÿ™‚

  105. Through my lens I see God in the face of each of my children. Through their smiles, eyes and angelic faces, I see innosence and all things good. I see the wonders of the world through my lens and I know that I am only a small part of it.

  106. Through my lens this weekend I captured my 2 year old son lovingly rocking and touching his new 2 week old cousin. So sweet!

  107. this weekend I was so very lucky to see my 9 month old daughter laughing at her first time in the ocean. her four little teeth are so cute in her huge face splitting grin as she peddles her legs and splashes all around just loving it!!!

  108. Right now I’m seeing myself through my lens, something which rarely happens. I’m participating in a course and loving the chance to capture a little of myself for my family to look back on.

  109. I see my adorable, sweet baby boy that just turned 1 last week. I see his firsts, his every accomplishment and milestone. I see his beautiful smile that makes my heart melt every time.
    sweetpeonies07 at gmail

  110. I see a boy on the brink of turning 13, I see my dog getting older and more frail, I see my sweet husband, I see the tiniest details and the widest views, I see my life. And it is all good. And that necklace is terrific! Great work.

  111. Through my lens I see my 4 year old daughter getting ready to venture out for her first day of preschool on Thursday. She told me she is nervous (how does she know what ‘nervous’ even means?) but the next minute she is pretending to go to school saying “bye mommy”…I then picture her heading off to college or moving out starting her life on her own. Is there a way to slow down time when we need it to? ๐Ÿ˜‰
    p.s. LOVE the necklace! Keep creating ’cause I love everything!

  112. I love seeing my life day by day! My camera is always handy, and it’s great to see the little things that I used to take for granted, or miss all together. I love the necklace!! What a great way to express my love for photography!!

  113. Funny…I was thinking that what I see is “my heart” – meaning of course my kids, who ARE my heart. And then when I went back and looked at the charm again I realized that what is in the lens is a heart…wonder if my subconscious saw that and came up with the answer. ๐Ÿ™‚

  114. I shared this on FB. These are so beautiful. I know many photographer friends who will LOVE this, just as I do. I feel like it was meant for me! ๐Ÿ™‚

  115. I basically eat, breathe & sleep with my camera. Through my lens, I see the beauty in every day things that many have either forgotten, overlooked, or never truly saw at all. The stories to be told from the simplest line of a building or splat of liquid. On Labor Day, my husband & I took our 15 month old son to an Island Farm to pick fresh peaches from the orchards. It was the best & he absolutely outdid himself with giggles & squeals. More than anything, through my lens, I see the innocence we all used to have & it reminds me to allow him to keep it as long as he can! ♥

  116. I see my beautiful 4 month old Sophia who smiles like there’s no tomorrow and my three year old, Olivia who loves her sister non stop.

  117. My boys jumping in puddles! So worth the mud and mess to see their smiles, especially after spending the afternoon doing fourth grade homework! ๐Ÿ™‚

  118. I see my beautiful daughter and amazing son. I see the beauty in the wind and the rustling of the leaves. I see JOY!

  119. Through my lens I see my triplets growing up so fast. They are 6 1/2 and started school all day today. I cried as all 3 climbed on to the bus together. I know today starts a new chapter for us, and I know that through my lens I’ll be seeing new joys unfold each day that they grow and change.

  120. What do I see? I see my beautiful children and my wonderful husband. I take my camera everywhere and I have started to see some improvements in my photography.

  121. I see souls dancing with each other while sharing love and commitment. I see a glimpse of Heaven through the eyes of children. I see how truly alike we all are, and how important relationships are to us. I see faith that can move mountains!

  122. I see autumn colors in the northern Utah mountains…the aspens are dressed in glorious golds and the maples don red dresses!

  123. i see raindrops, bright eyes, windblown hair, an orchard full of ripe apples, and weathered hands. my mom working in the backyard.

  124. When I look through the lens i see that i have come along way and there is much more to come. I have accomplished a lot that I wasnt sure I was able. I have a great job that I love, awesome boyfriend and 2 wonderful doggies.

  125. Through my lens- I see moments frozen in time, beautiful colors as we transition into fall, my 2 pups playing tug-a-war, stacks of photography books for school, and the love on my boyfriends face as we relax on the patio each night… ๐Ÿ˜€ Love the new necklace!!

  126. Through my lense I see four little boys growing. And through their eyes I see so many simple joys of child hood that we forget about as adults. I am reminded to slow down some times and colour with a new box of crayons or get down on the floor and play.

  127. I see kids smiles,
    I see a clean Earth,
    I see people hugging,
    I see the sundown,
    I see flowers growing,
    I see happy life,
    I see beautiful friends,
    I see your blog!

  128. through my lens, i see the peace. the lens reminds me to stop & breathe, because in a picture, everything can look SO together, and peaceful, despite feeling completely hurried at the time. it slows me down. it makes me think.

  129. Lisa- I see the beauty all around me…in the face of my husband… and in the faces of my students each and every day!

  130. Through my lens I see moments i never want to forget and always want to treasure! My boys (7 & 9) are growing SOOO fast. I am forever sticking the camera right in their faces up close. I love their perfect skin, fresh eyes and wispy hair! I love the things that the camera captures that the naked eye looks right past!

  131. Through my lens I see my adult children working hard at building happy families, doing their best, loving strongly, using their God-given talents, giving back to their communities, and, helping their Mom even when she doesn’t ask or expect it.

  132. I see my two beautiful children growing up even faster than I ever could have imagined! I wish “my” lens had a “slow down!” function ๐Ÿ™‚

  133. LOVE this necklace!! Through my lens, I see everyday moments with family and friends and things I hope to never forget.

  134. Through my lens I see small details, all too often unnoticed otherwise. My very favorite things to see are the members of my family, however.

  135. Through my lens I see faith, hope in the examples of my parents. I see Joy and adventure in my children as they grow into amazing young adults. I see the unconditional love in my husband’s eyes…..Through my lens I also see the future of someday sitting at the feet of our Father in heaven rejoicing in the paradise he’s prepared for all of us!

  136. I see inspiration, beauty & adventure. The most precious thing I see is my doggy, Toby. He truly is the child we will never have.

  137. I see my gorgeous cousins (my best subjects!!) and the love that different people share. I capture the great faces after seeing the marvelous pictures that we have taken together. I see the times shared together, hard or easy. Amazing memories every day. ๐Ÿ™‚

  138. I see by brother who just passed through my lens- in the trees, the sky within the clouds…I see his beauty everywhere…I have to see that to hold on to him.

  139. Wow Lisa! This is a really cute idea for a necklace! I can imagine it will make a great gift for a lot of photographers!

    I see through my lens how every child is special ๐Ÿ™‚

  140. I had my little girl on May 15th at 26 weeks (3 months early) right now as i sit in her NICU room looking through my lens I see “life” , “joy”, “healing”, “love”, “sweetness” I see ……”a miracle”

  141. I see my mother soaking up every ounce of her time with my kids….love capturing these moments as a keepsake/reminder for my kids.

  142. Lately I have had the opportunity of seeing the faces of some beautiful seniors who are allowing me to capture some memories for them. It has been awesome!

  143. I see the opportunities to capture memories through my lenses! Mainly these days, it’s of my boyfriend and my dog! : )

  144. i see the sweet faces of my children, that i will miss one day when they are grown. no matter how naughty they are or how tough life can be with toddlers, i look through the photos i take of them, and know that all of the rough days of parenthood will be long forgotten one day and i will just feel very blessed that i captured their true innocence.

  145. Most recently? I see the changing colors in the maple trees in my back yard! My sister’s fav season is fast approaching! Thanx for the inspiration and t’riffic blog candy opp! And that $20 you owe me? Forget about it! LOL!

  146. I see the little things… my daughter’s whispy hair, my son’s fingernails full of sand, my husband’s blue eyes.

  147. i see my daughter growing into a pre-teen, i see my home as it changes through the year, i see my husband and i as we celebrate another year of being together, i see my precious miracle-baby niece, i see a bond between my mom & sister & i…i see my everyday life–ordinary and extraordinary.

  148. Oooh Lisa, you know I love this one! I’m constantly working to see my own family through my lens. It’s hard for me to embrace my camera outside of sessions for other people’s families.

  149. I love this necklace! Through my lens I see groceries – gas – electricity (I take photos for work). But then I see so much more when I look through my lens for fun – I see my life ๐Ÿ™‚ lv ya Lisa!

  150. Through my lens I see the world in a special way. That special way in which time freezes long enough for me to soak it all in and enjoy it. Through my lens I can be creative and express myself in a way that’s different, taking in all the little things, big or small.

  151. I LOVE LOVE LOVE this necklace!!! So excited about it!

    Through my lens I see a time to cherish. Every season is life is a time to cherish whether that be a newborns first smile, a couples new love, generations of a family legacy, a new graduate getting ready to make their place in this world!

  152. I see my precious kiddos that I thank the Lord for EVERY DAY! ๐Ÿ™‚ And PLENTY of pictures are taken of them for sure! ๐Ÿ™‚

  153. When I look through my lens, I see pride. I live on a military base, and everywhere I look, I see men and women who work and live for the pride and loyalty of our country. We are the home of the free because of the brave, and when I look through my lens, I feel that bravery and pride all around me.

  154. Children! I teach preschool and I love taking pictures of the kids in my class and seeing how they grow through out the year.

  155. Through my lens, I see all the beauty that God has created in the many faces I see every day. In addition, I see the beauty that the hands of His creation have created all over the world. Words cannot begin to express how grateful I am for the gift of having lens to capture all this beauty!

  156. I see my kids playing and enjoying life through my lenes…..Can’t get any better than that!!! LOVE YOUR STUFF…… ๐Ÿ™‚

  157. oh Lisa, this is so sweet! what a beautiful creation! What do I see thru my lens??? hmmm, i see my children in ways that go unnoticed without the artistic angle of my lens. i see the world and all Gods many creations with a higher appreciation than ever before – trying like mad to capture it all!

  158. Through my lense I see the smiling faces of my children (most of the time). They wouldn’t let me take pictures of them on their first day of school though! I guess they’re getting too “old”.

    Thanksf or the giveaway!

    b.

  159. I see the loves of my life….my three sons and my husband! I see the signs of fall coming. I see my beautiful Lisa Leonard necklaces that I absolutley adore!!! xoxoxo

  160. Through my lens I see my three sweet kiddos. I love capturing moments in our lives through photography. It helps me to really soak it all in!

  161. I camera goes everywhere with me. I love to take pictures….typically it is of my girls! But, I take a picture a day, so I try and find something that pops out that day at me to take it of. It could be the littlest thing, but I love taking a picture a day and looking back on our life!

    And I love this new goodie in your shop!

  162. I always see my three sweet, sassy, feisty little girls through my lens. I can’t pull my camera out without one of them jumping in front of it. I love capturing their spirits!

  163. Through my lens I see my two precious Miniature Schnauzers cuddling with my husband! That, and a beautiful world. ๐Ÿ™‚

  164. I see a warm house that I created with my husband for our three children and I hope to see more love, laughter, peace and calmness.

  165. I see the beauty of nature, the innocence and hope in my kids’ eyes, love and laughter, family and friends. I love capturing life with my camera. The necklace is amazing, thanks for the chance to win!

  166. I see two little boys through my lens. Usually from the back. Both of them have some level of ADD, so aside from being two active little boys, they are usually waaaayyyyyy ahead of me and not looking back. There’s a story about Moses, though; when he asked to see God’s face, God showed him his back. Why? So Moses could look over his shoulder and see the world like God saw it. So I like to think that when I’m chasing my little guys I’m seeing their little views of the big world.

  167. I have tears of excitement for this piece!! It’s everything I’ve been looking for!!

    I see smiles that warm my heart and reminding me of everything good in the world!!

  168. I see color, shape, form, designs in nature and patterns everywhere. I see in pictures so my camera just helps me show other people the way my eye works.

  169. My lens is a bit hazy these days. My allergies and Fall in Kansas do not seem to get along right now. Even though what I’m seeing is a bit cloudy, I love what I see… my new middle schooler off to school with her “Vote for me” student council poster complete with twinkly lights and sequins….my sweet soccer-loving 8-year old walking around the house with his light saber…and of course, the dear man who loves me for who I am–even if I am a woman with a runny nose and swollen eyes!

  170. LOVE THIS!

    it is ironic that my husband is the professional photographer, BUT i am the one who ALWAYS has a camera. through my lens i see…my abundant life! my camera causes me to be intentional about capturing the “little things.” all those little things are my life in abundance i may have missed had i not looked through my lens.

  171. Through my lens I see a house that needs cleaning, laundry to be washed, errands to be run, bills that need paying, dinner that must be planned, grandchildren to be hugged, a husband to be kissed, children to laugh with, people that need my help, flowers blooming, the brilliant sun, the ripples of water in my pool, and birds eating seed in my backyard. Life is just the way I pictured it!

  172. I LOVE this! Photography is such a passion of mine. I love pictures and I love my camera. Typically, I take pictures of my kids, everyday and photo shoot style. Right now, I’m gearing up for a week long cruise, just me and my hubby. With my tripod in tow hopefully we will capture a wonderful vacation.

  173. I see my handsome husband, God’s beautiful creation, the city I love that we call home, friends, family, college students that we minister to, and lots of photos of our home and delicious food for my blog.

  174. This necklace represents me so well! I carry my camera everywhere, the joke is that my kids don’t know what mommy looks like because she is always behind the camera. I take pictures of just about everything and though I’m not the best, practice makes perfect!

  175. Through my lens I see my beautiful boy, who changes every day! I also see my growing belly, that LITERALLY changes every day! ๐Ÿ™‚ {another boy due next month!}

    LOVE this necklace!!!

  176. i will be honest. right now, through my lens, i see 2 daughters that are exhausting me emotionally! i remind my self every day, prov. 22:15 Foolishness is bound up in the heart of a child; The rod of discipline will remove it far from him.. THATS what im seeing thru my lense. that is my SAVING GRACE lately! great necklace

  177. Today? Through my lens today, I see the most amazing clouds, raindrops on the flowers in my yard, and a fluffy white dog curled up next to a sick little boy.

  178. Gee, I don’t have a deep. poetic comment like these wonderful ladies before me. I see something that thrills me so I grab my camera. I love the new necklace. Lisa~

  179. since i’m the one who is typically in charge of the camera, my sweet kiddos are what show up through the lens. and almost always it includes them having fun with their most wonderful daddy.

  180. Love the necklace – would love to win it for my daughter who is the true photographer in our family! However, through my lens I do see more and more the simple things and the reality that I need to enjoy them more often.

  181. through my lens i try to capture and hold on to every moment of my children. they are growing way too fast and through my lens…i can capture it all and never forget!

  182. I see my childrena and their smiling faces!!! They define pure joy in the little things. Thanks for the chance to win

  183. What a perfect necklace for me. I have a blog that features 365 days of life behind the lens so this necklace couldn’t be more fitting. Through my lens I see happiness, laughter, joy, beauty, and memories being made.

  184. Through my lens I see a freckled nose, heavy sunflowers, polka dot garden boots and pumpkins the nicest shade of orange….that’s what I see today.

  185. I see my 3 children being so sweet to each other. I love the moments when they hug each other or cuddle on the couch. I’ve been able to capture some of these moments on my camera!

  186. I see my babies growing up and doing all the fun things of childhood. I try to capture the moments for them….. and for me!
    I see the beautiful world that God created.
    I see friends and family and the people I love.
    I see so much through my camera lens and I want to capture it all…..
    Love the necklace!

  187. my lens changes as the days pass. I see things differently each day because of my child and the children i spend the day with a school. they always have a way to remind you that you just might need to stop and refocus that lens.

  188. Through my lens…I see incredible but simple blessings and reminders to be grateful. My heart smiles just thinking about it. I LOVE your new necklace. LOVE it. ๐Ÿ™‚

  189. I see small details. A missing tooth. A bee on a flower. A heart shaped leaf. A whisker on a cat. Anyone can see the big things. You have to slow down to see the little things.

  190. Through my lens I see my 3 growing before my eyes. For just one split second I can capture them in their silly, goofy, loving, happy, growing moments to treasure forever and share with them and theirs when they are grown and I’m old. I see the beauty we take for granted. For one moment I take the time to enjoy and cherish what God has blessed me with.

  191. Through my lens….I see young adult children who were just toddling around in my life.
    My oldest is in college and the other two in high school.
    I’m capturing every moment…..cause they end so soon! ๐Ÿ˜‰

  192. I see happiness, my cute godchildren, family, friends, a wonderful world and all the little things like this gorgeous necklace :-)!

  193. I love the extra set of eyes a camera provides me. The ability to look at something ordinary in an entirely different way. I see how the colors looked in the sky after the rain.. or the way my nephew laughed when he was little.. how a trip somewhere special felt. I see the love my family shares.. and often.. I see me for better for worse and in between.
    ๐Ÿ™‚

  194. Beautiful necklace, Lisa. Through my lens, I see children growing up too quickly and me wanting to slow everything down and take it all in.

  195. I’m documenting a year of my life, birthday to birthday, with my camera. Some days require more photos than others, but it’s an interesting journey through the lens!

  196. Today I saw my three year old giddy with excitement for her first day of preschool. It was so precious and the feeling was contagious.

  197. I see my kids and all their activities….I LOVE taking pictures because I think it’s the best memory we have of all those days/years that fly by! Can you tell I can’t believe my kids are: 12 (Jr. High), 10 & almost 6 (kindergarten)?

  198. Through my lens, I see the little details in life that bring a smile to my face and that I always want to remember, no matter how far those little gems in life may be from me someday.

  199. Through my lens I see my future – love, learning, teaching, kids, friendship, trust, excitement, beauty and family.
    Great necklace!!

  200. I see through my lens my adorable 3 granddaughters! (soon to be 4!!) I can’t wait! I love when they come to visit or when I get to go see them to take just random photos of them playing, they are at such perfect ages, the oldest is 3 1/2 and the twins are just 2! So much fun! I am a proud grandma ๐Ÿ˜‰

  201. I see my 2 precious boys, Sam 2 yrs. and Ben 1 month!!!! They are the miracles I’ve prayed for for 6 years. They are God’s amazing gifts to me. <

  202. Through my lens I see the leaves gently falling on the path as I walk, the goofy expression on my dog’s face, the concentration of my daughter as she rides her horse, and (with the self-timer!) my husband and I, smiling though the years.

  203. My hubby just bought me a Canon XS as a gift! I have always loved to capture moments, but most specifically lately, I love to catch my kids in their day to day. I want to remember what my baby girl looked like as she discovered new things. I want to see the joy in my toddler son’s face as he plays outside. I could go on and on!

  204. Through my lens I see my baby boy grow. He is 7 1/2 months now and I’ve watched him get bigger and stronger and discover his world. It’s amazing.

  205. I see my family through the lens of my camera. Unless I’m on vacation and then it’s all about the sights. Been awhile since I’ve been on a vacation though. ๐Ÿ™‚

    Great giveaway!

    thank you so much for this giveaway…I am in love with this necklace ๐Ÿ™‚

  212. Through my lens I see soooo much! I am a professional photographer here in Asheville, NC. I absolutely love what I do. I believe I have been given a gift from a wonderful Creator. He has given me the gift to see through His lens and that causes me to see the world a bit differently. I see a couple starting a new life together on the happiest day of their lives. I see a new beautiful addition to a family, I see beauty in a girl who maybe doesn’t think she is beautiful. I see the beauty of people. Often times they don’t see it till I show it to them. Again, I have been given a gift and I love nothing more than to give it back.

  213. I would have to agree with Lauren who commented above me…..sometimes I need to be reminded to see God’s grace all around me…Thanks! Through my lens I see…..my 4 precious children, my loving hubby, the beautiful woods and countryside that God made.

    I really want to get this necklace for a friend of mine. She takes beautiful pics and what she is seeing through her lens right now is amazing! She and her husband are currantly in China meeting their long awaited little girl! I can only imagine the emotion that they are experiencing right now. She is so small and sweet and cuddly….has taken a liking to her daddy from the start ๐Ÿ™‚ They left for China as a family of three and are returning as a family of four! God has been faithful to them!

  214. I see my 3 beautiful sons that God brought into our life through adoption. They each have a handicap and are in a wheelchair…but I see their hearts! their personality! they make my heart sing! I am blessed. We have a photographer in our town that is giving away a FREE setting to any Family in our town who has a handicapped child and would like a Family setting. I would love to win this for her! and give it to her for all she does for Families with disabilities in our town!
    Thank you for this chance and May God Bless you and your business!!!

  215. Through my lens, I see the sweet smile of my beautiful preemie daughter, who was not given much of a chance for survival. She is 15 months and the joy of my life–and my favorite photo subject!

  216. hi lisa

    xoTiffany

  217. Through my lens I see life as a new mommy and how my perspectives on everything i once deemed valuable have faded away.

  218. i see the magical light of my daughters’ eyes-
    i see the apricot-tinted cloud formations in the big sky of Wyoming-
    and more – i see so much more.

  219. Through my lens I see loved ones, near and far away…I see children growing up faster than I ever imagined, becoming young men, filled with God’s love for the world around them…I see the next half century before me and the precious moments of the past 50 years in my minds eye…I see hope for a future.

  220. I see my two wonderful boys! I have been blessed with two great ones!
    I received my Lisa Leonard box in the mail last week. I received my aqua set!!! Yippee!!!! I love, love, love it!!!!!!! I have had many compliments!!!!

  221. I am finally learning to see God’s love for me in all He does for me…to not see them as things that I have “earned”, but as gifts to us…just because. Jesus was the ultimate gift, of course, it is just easy to forget that from day to day. I am learning how to see thru a lens of gratitude, instead of a lens of “well, I earned it”.

  222. I see my Irishman who is always there to give me balance and hold my hand…i see my ever blossoming ladies as they navigate their new year…I see my home my center my comfort my place to hide and make memories

  223. i see my world around me…my kids, what i do everyday, my friends, family, daily tasks…i LOVE capturing the beauty all around me!

  224. How cute is this!! Through my lens I see the fortune that I haveโ€ฆand that is my family. I absolutely love them to pieces and I’m so blessed with a wonderful and supportive husband and awesome kiddos.

  225. I love it. I think that you must stop making such fabulous pieces…because my wish list is quite long already and I may never be able to acquire them all at this rate. ๐Ÿ˜› I try to capture the daily events that are truly the most special. The things that are constant…the smile, the dimples, the grin, the “can you believe this, mama?”face….and the changing….the frog legs that turned into propellers for the scooting to the straight but wobbly sea legs. I just want to capture or simple loving life.

  226. Lisa, that necklace is adorable! I love it.
    Through my lens, I see my daughter. My sweet face, Zoie Sharae. She has been through so much at the age of 4, and she is still the sweetest child and I am so blessed to have her in my life. God gave me such a true blessing, and I am thankful every day for his gift.
    We have had a rough road, but I am so thankful that I have her by my side. She is such a sweet and compassionate child, and everyone who comes in contact with her leave with a smile. She is amazing.
    Thank you for the opportunity to win. I would be honored to wear one of your necklaces!
    Love
    Lindsay

  227. AH! LOVE IT! I see beauty. My favorite thing to do “through my lens” is help women realize how beautiful they are…

  228. Lisa!
    What a FABULOUS necklace!
    And such sweet~thought placed into creating it!
    Your HEART just BEAMS through your pieces!
    This is WHAT makes YOUR jewelry so SPECIAL!
    Through my lens I see this BEAUTIFUL world that God has placed me within.
    I see HIS creation.
    I see HIM.
    And I am grateful…beyond words.
    xo

  229. I always have my camera nearby ready to capture the adorable faces of my two girls…and sometimes the dog even makes it in too ๐Ÿ™‚

  230. I see so much of nature – different shades of green, spiders spinning their delicate webs, my dog rolling in the grass, my beautiful daughter, my husband.

  231. I’m not a great photographer. But my cousin and my husband are superb. So I usually see what I want a picture of and then have them shoot it. I’m definitely going to send this link around. I know so many people that can capture magic with a camera.

  232. The beauty of the world around me, especially in small everyday things like a sunset at the beach, holding my husbands hand, a kind act.

  233. my children, the ones growing right before me, every day, sometimes too fast, and all the “moments” I want to capture and save forever.

  234. I see my three little girls growing up right before my eyes…. I take pictures (almost) every single day, and I love going back a week, or a month, or even a year and seeing how much they have changed…..

  235. Through my lens I see the beauty of fall as it is approaching and the beauty of my babies as they are learning and growing. Such a pretty necklace.

  236. Through my lens I am amazed at the beauty of God’s creation. I see 3 precious children (3 and under) all growing, learning,and exploring. Never a dull moment through this lens, look forward to all the moments to capture ahead. Beautiful Necklace…thanks for the opprotunity.

  237. Through my lens today I saw my sweet boy run to the school bus, all ready for his first day of second grade! Through my lens I see all the things I hold precious to me… and want to hold on to as long as I can…

  238. I am currently doing a 365 day photo blog of my 3 1/2 year old. I love it! She changes so much every day and has such a personality that I don’t want to miss a thing!

  239. I am seeing suitcases that need unpacking, laundry that needs to be done, kids that need to go to school, and a car that needs the bugs washed off of it!!! Life is good!

  240. Oh my gosh! I adore that!! So gorgeous! Through my lens I see the laughter and smiles of my friends and family. ๐Ÿ™‚

  243. At the moment I am seeing too much homework, work and boring stuff! I want to see more of my boys cheeky faces, sunshine & fun stuff!

  244. Today we’re taking our kids to their first Chicago Cubs baseball game, and of course I’ll be taking my camera along. It’ll be baseballs, hotdogs, and two little Cubs fans on the other end of my lens today. ๐Ÿ™‚

  245. Saturday afternoon, the sun is just behind the trees, I’m laying flat down in the grass camera in hand, taking pictures of my two dachshunds playing in the tall green grass…………….

  246. I see the beautiful life and family God has given me. I am so humbled by it all and by the finished work on the cross that was done for you and for me to have eternal life with Him. It will be a glorious day!

  247. through my lense, I see the life that the Lord has created for me – the talents He has given me, the love He has provided me through my family, and my faith & hope sustained through His word!

    beautiful work, Lisa!

  248. I see all the beauty and wonder in the world, reflected in my little boys’ eyes!

    Beautiful necklace – lovely design, as always!

  249. I see my family through my lense…the first day of school, college and all the other mile stones they have reached. By seeing all this, it makes my love for scrapbooking very busy. After finishing my oldest daughters books for graduation it makes me love taking more and more pictures. Everyone loved looking through the memorie books and remember the moments, it really makes you realize how quickly life goes by.

  250. Through my lens, I see my sweet children captured in flashes of loving moments. They are growing so big now, and don’t always snuggle on the couch with me anymore, but I remember the times they did, and hold those memories in my heart.

  251. Most of the time I see my finger. I don’t know if I am just a putz or if I simply have really long fingers, but we have a lot of lovely photos that include my finger. Although according to my 19-year-old daughter, “Mom will make you headless or at least half-headed if she takes your picture.” But I am not giving up! Someday my pictures will look like some of the ones I see on your site.

    The new necklace is very fun.

  252. My 3 sweeties who began school today!
    Noah who is wise beyond his years and such a helper-Grant who is soaring through school with confidence despite all his medical challenges-and Megan whose smile brightens the room as she befriends everyone she meets.

  253. It’s just life. I capture big things, little things, and it’s all evidence of God’s grace and faithfulness in our lives. It’s moments I don’t want to forget and memories I don’t want to limit to my mind alone.
    The necklace is beautiful, as always.

  254. I see my two beautiful boys! My five-year-old’s smiling face and, usually, my two-year-old’s back of his head!! He’s a hard one to capture!!

  255. Through my lens, I see our brand-new puppy, the change of the seasons around us, and countless sights and memories from our travels that I never want to forget!

  256. Through my lens, I see my children growing up way too quickly. I cannot capture them enough! The oldest is in school. so through my lens means spending time with the younger one and capturing her day to day. Thanks for the chance!

  257. I am always reminded
    that what I am seeing through the lens

    are snapshots of my time on the earth.

    …so teach us to number our days
    that we may apply our hearts unto
    wisdom. ~ Psalm 90.12 ~

    I like that you engraved a little love in the middle of the camera.
    May love be at the heart of every image.

  258. I see beauty everywhere. Whether I am looking at my kids, my hubby, nature, ‘stuff’-my life is blessed. Love your new necklace!

  259. I LOOOOVEEE my camera….it is my way of “freezing” time and those “fleeting moments” of my childrens and family! ๐Ÿ˜‰

  260. I see friends, family and loved ones — I see the face of a precious granddaughter who I drop off at school every day – -and I see the rain. It’s lovely!

  261. I see my angel girl….my daughter who begins grade eight and one day will conquer the world……I see a life full of promise and joy!
    Thank you for your beautiful designs!

  262. My husband, and my own face–as I grow and change and try to deal with the challenges I’m facing right now:)
    I LOVE this necklace!

  263. I see change ~ a change of seasons ~ a new life plan and renewed spirit ~ an empty nest ~ a new beginning for my hubby & I ~ a huge growth year for my children

  264. Today I see through my lens my baby taking his first steps into middle school looking so old and thinking how could we be to this point already. I also saw my 3 little people as they have grown and now our starting 4th grade. Enjoying this day through the lens!

  265. Through my lens, I see a family — my own — growing up and growing closer each and every day. I see what hard work and boundless love and forgiveness and patience can do to a person’s spirit. I also see what a loving God is capable of doing in my life.

  266. I see my three girls, growing up way too fast. I LOVE this new necklace because I am constantly taking pictures…..the “odometer” on my camera just turned over to 20000 pics (ok, most are probably duds but I keep them anyway.)

  267. I see my beautiful daughter that while doctors had once told me she wouldn’t make it proved everyone wrong. She was perfect all along. I see her smile, her humour (because at 2 she gets what humour is), her bubbly personality that affects everyone in the room. I see my husband and my family as complete because we have her. I see that God has given this all to me.

  268. Through my lens I see a lot of LOVE! Love in the form of three little boys, my nephews! I also see alot of FUN! Fun times with family and friends. Laughter. Joy. Happiness! Love your new creation!

  269. i see curiosity, joy, creativity and love. i take my “memory snapper” with me everywhere as well, so true you never know when inspiration will strike :).
    adore your sweet new necklace

  270. I don’t carry my camera everywhere like you and often regret it. I take the camera to “special events” otherwise it stays at home. I am fairly good at taking pictures of our everyday life at home…like the crafts we do, my girls dressing up, their tent creations, cooking fun, playing outside, or just hanging out. It is usually those memories (pictures) I treasure most.

  271. Through my lens I see the little moments that create my beautifil life, the curiosity of my little man,the knowledge of my student, the strength of my family, and my ongoing love for life!

  272. This whole weekend i saw my family and closest friends through my lens. We went up to Bear :Lake (a family tradition) and had a great time. On the other hand though, I watched my own heart break through my lens as I was rejected by a boy I gave my heart to. A necklace would really help the blow ๐Ÿ™‚

  273. I see memories that I don’t want my husband, who travels a lot, to miss. Time captured and feelings told, smiles and giggles and even frowns and tears. I want nothing to be missed.

  274. Awh Lisa, this necklace is a dream come true!! I see thru my lens lots of caring warm families, sweet newborns, Excited seniors, beautiful weddings!!

  275. Oh I love it!! I see my kids growing up before my eyes and am thankful that my camera can capture all the little moments that I don’t want to forget.

  276. I see beauty through my lens. It’s amazing to me how people–myself included–can be so hard on themselves and how “photogenic” they think they are…or are not! When I look at them through my lens, all I see is beauty. I wish we could all see each other…and ourselves…the way I see through my lens.

  277. Through my lens I see my future with my wonderful husband in our new house!

    Love the necklace. I love photography so of course I love the little camera. Too cute.

    Thanks for the chance to win!!!!

  278. I love to take pictures…I love taking pictures of my kids but anything that catches my eye I will photograph.

  279. kids . . . lots of ’em, that’s what i see through my lens. our #6 is arriving next month and we’re so excited, plus, before then i’m going to get my first SLR camera and try to learn a little before the baby gets here so i can shoot away!
    blessings,
    shana

  280. OH WOW! You’ve done it again, another fabulous design.
    When I look through my camara lense, it’s usually scenery pics. I love to take those types of pics.

    My daughter is also a fun one to capture on film, she loves to work with the camara.

  281. I see my son who will be 5 tomorrow, my soon to be 18 month daugther, my husband, family and friends. I like scenery but I really like to have pictures of us too!
    Great necklace

  282. i love this necklace, great work on this one!

    through my lens i see…..children with bare feet, beautiful skies, homemade blueberry muffins, golden sunlight and my family.

  283. I love the Sky and Clouds. I see alot of those through my lens. And my children. I love the shake it ap on my iphone. Thanks for sharing that with us!!

  284. After some intentional time put aside for cleaning, I see a clean and organized family room in our basement, aaaaahhhhhh.

  285. I see gratefulness. Today I am gratefull for a job, the love of my life, Tony, the love of OUR life, Dayton, for friends that love you no matter what and for a house to call a home.

    Have a great, short week everyone!!

  286. I see so much beauty through my lens. This summer I had the great fortune of visiting and photographing several nature preserves in New Hampshire which gave me much greater respect for undeveloped and protected land.

  287. I see family moments that will never come again, beauty in small pieces of nature, the satisfaction of creating items by hand.

    Love your new creation, Lisa!

  288. I always see my girls, Abby and Lily. Sometimes wanting to pose and sometimes saying, “Moooommmmmmmmmyyyy.” Way too young to not want their picture taken. ๐Ÿ™‚

  289. Through my lens I see the greatness in everyone and everything. So many times we are always stuck on what is wrong in the picture, not what is right or going well. There is always something great in every moment!

  290. through my lenses I see my son playing … while away on business ๐Ÿ™
    I love the necklace and it has my initals on it already.

    Thanks a lot,
    jess (MAd About Pink)

  291. Through my lens right now I see Gods everyday gifts. While my husband is unemployed We get to spend more time as a family and grow. I’m loving it!

    This new necklace IS fabulous!!

  292. I see more intangibles as I age…most especially, I see love and pride in my daughter’s eyes when she laughs with her sons and I see adoration and absolute awe when I see my son gaze into the eyes of his newborn daughter.

  293. I see the world as I want it to be: all wars are banned, every child has everything he needs.
    We all live in peace and justice.
    And I’ve come to think that we really can, with a little courage…

  294. I see my little boy growing up so fast through my lens. He is becoming more independent by the day. I see the love my husband shares for our son, and capturing father and son is one of my favorite things. I also see nature in a way that some may not, and I love getting asked about my nature photos.

  295. Through my lens, I see the textures of Life. Up close and personal, I can capture the details that will make my memories and experiences almost tangible again.

  296. I see my children…and am so grateful I can capture the small moments because they are growing and changing so quickly!

  297. Lisa – you’ve outdone yourself.

    I see memories of loved ones frozen in time. I see people looking at these photos in years to come and thinking, “Remember when…” I see childhood captured and grandparents remembered, babies cherished, and love captured.

    It’s all the reasons why I love what I do.

  298. Through my lens I see postcards from God as only He can send: a broken egg shell on newly mown grass, a cloud shaped like a dove gliding through the Idaho sky, twirly skirts on girls I love and twinkling blue eyes through wonderful little boy glasses. Thank you for creating this very special necklace.

  299. I think that is so pretty! Like you I take my camera everywhere and HAVE to have a camera phone lol. though sadly my camera is dead and my cellphone screen is busted. But at this moment what I see through my lens is a beautiful little boy that keeps amazing me everyday with how smart and well rounded he is and a wonderful husband that despite all our downfalls has found a way to keep me grounded and feeling like I can move mountains.

  300. I see the beauty of the Creator through my lensโ€ฆthe colors, the textures, the stunning things you miss if you don’t look closely!

  301. I see my sweet little Sophia through my lense…almost every day. I carry my point and shoot camera in my purse at all times. You just never know when you will want to capture a memory. Love the new necklace!

  302. Right now I am seeing my crazy, busy life & wishing it would slow down just a little bit! I am actually a photography & all around crafter & I absolutely LOVE this necklace! Thanks for the chance to win this Lisa!

    Rachelle

  303. I see my life… everyday. I try to capture my everyday life so that I can remember the little details that I love so much. ๐Ÿ™‚ Thanks for the chance Lisa. I truly love this necklace and the thought behind it.

  304. I see my sweet little boys! Each one growing and changing everyday, it is so nice to catch these moments in time to look back on…

  305. Through my lens I see the beauty in things that some may not. I see beauty in the aging horse in the field by my home that others speed by on a daily basis. I see beauty in the run down farmers buildings standing abandoned in an overgrown garden. Beauty in the face of the woman working behind the counter of the department store I shop, knowing that she should be retired by now. And I always see the beauty in my daughters creativity – even if it involves a 30 minute clean up with a carpet cleaner!

  306. Like you I carry my camera everywhere, right now it is sitting here ready to take pictures of my tween on her first day of junior high. Yesterday it was pictures of creation as we took pictures of flowers and trees..everyone, everything can be caught in the lens and tells a story!
