Oftentimes when people show me their photos on their phone or if I comment on people's photos online they usually mention a disclaimer of their photography skills. I will usually shoot back something disarming right away. I'm not judging photos everywhere I look. I mention that it is much more important to take the photos as life unfolds and changes before all of our eyes. Candid or not - photograph a lot. Kids grow and change so fast. I wasn't always a professional photographer, but I sure have always been snap-happy. In the digital realm, there is no monetary cost to photographing. In the film days, film and processing costs slowed us shutterbugs down a bit. Take pictures of everything! :-) My kids, of course, were my favorite subjects. I can tell, as they grew, I got better at my skills, which is a good thing. Now that they are older, our family photos are priceless. It seems only a few short years ago they were this little. It warms my heart and I am so glad I have captured moments of what is now a lost time.
