Life Happens. Take Pictures.My daughter turned 5 on Tuesday, and I STILL CANNOT BELIEVE IT. I mean seriously...I remember when she looked like this:
While we were at the hospital, there was a pro photographer roaming around, taking photos of the newborns, and we decided to get some pro photos done. Our most precious resource, barely a day old, immortalized in photos, which we would cherish for years to come. Yeah. And then we got the photos back. The photo below was the "best" of the set.
For the sake of comparison, check out the photo below, which I took during a Fresh 48 session in early April:
There's something very magical about the little boy's expression. Something that just wasn't captured in that quickie done-by-a-supposed-pro photo of my daughter. And now my daughter is 5. FIVE! Did I just blink? This birthday, more than any of the birthdays she's had before, was a BIG DEAL. I think she's been planning it since she turned four. And so, I wanted to make sure that we captured the excitement of it.
The moral of the story? As many of my clients can attest, kids grow up faster than you can say, "Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious" (I totally Googled the spelling). Before you know it, they've gone from teeny newborn to feisty five-year-old in the blink of an eye. And having those nice photos to remember them by is pretty priceless. But then again, I'm kind of a bit of a photo freak myself. If you've got a little one's birthday coming up, you might want to consider a pro photo package to celebrate the milestone. Or, if you're expecting, contact me, and we can chat about having a Fresh 48 or Newborn session. Peace, love, and über-Ümla happiness! Comments
