@reinedecajun a nosy question for you, and I hope I don't get us banned for asking.... but as a photog when you want family pics done, do you like swap services with another photog? I think that would be hard because I'd be very critical of their work. Same for hairstylists, who does their hair!?
Random breakfast thoughts.
I have several photog friends that I would trust to do our's but I rather just do them. I know excatly what I want and don't have to explain to anyone lol! I just set up with my tripod and use a remote trigger.
@amilyn9785 My DH is very picky about photos. When we were looking for a newborn photographer none of the local ones measured up to his requirements. So he ended up buying a bunch of props to take them himself. I kind of regret it because he's NOT a newborn photographer and it was incredibly hard to work with two newborns (especially when we were scared as parents to wake them up). Anyway, for our family photos he asked a photographer friend to take them and we paid him (he gave us a discount). However my H asked to edit them himself. During the session I had to remind him several times he was there as a client not as a photographer, because he started giving his friend instructions on settings. I was so embarrassed. Luckily he listened to me but he was still critical about them as he was editing them. 8-|
Our most recent family pics were at 5 months. :-< Here's my favorite, and I have been wanting to get the year pics, just want to have my whole whole family in them and that takes finessing.

I have a nicer one of us all kind of smiling, but this one always makes me laugh - I'm the only one who didn't know we were doing silly faces! This was back in May
Thats cute!!

Re: ~WOW~
Seeing all your beautiful family photos makes me want to get some professional ones done.

Even a minor event in the life of a child is an event of that child's world and thus a world event.
