I Tried

You know the old saying "...and the cobbler's children go barefoot"? I think that it's probably also true that the photographer's children never have formal pictures taken. I take tons of pictures of my kids...lots of candids and iPhone shots (which I love), but I rarely ever try to sit them down and do a session with them. This is why:


After tantrums, and hair pulling, and yes...even spit up, I finally decided that these pictures are going to be the ones I treasure when I'm old and grey.

Check out more shots at Monday Rewind, and And Then She Snapped

these are so much better than any "professional" photos ever could be. because these show your true kids, not some fancy schmancy moment in time that you had to force them to do. I love them! thanks for showing off!
