My baby simply sitting on my bed in an adorable outfit
I just attended the evo conf. 2011 and had fun taking pictures with Me Ra Koh. She has awaken the photographer in me again. We have had some financial problems the last few years and I didn’t pick up my camera for awhile. I didn’t feel like I wanted to remember this time. I have 4 children and life marches on. I am missing some incredible moments. Thank you for an inspiring weekend to awaken the passionate woman inside of me. I am ready to capture our special moments again and live life to its fullest.
My favorite was capturing my daughter blowing spit bubbles.
I would love this book!! I Love photography but am just a beginner so am always so interested in finding out all I can and fun ways to do it. My favorite moment would have to be my 2 yr old playing peek a boo with my baby. Photos from both directions were priceless.
my favorite was capturing my sons first real smile. oh how I cherish that photo
My favorite picture moment was my first sons 2 weeks pictures done at home. She took pictures of all the things we always do but from my perspective. So I sat in the rocker and she took a picture over my shoulder so it is what I always saw when rocking my baby.
My favorite photo was my son’s first photo session. A girl came to my hospital room to take photos of my 1 day old son and it was such a sweet moment.
we had a photographer come and do our new born pictures and she got one of my son laying on his belly with his hands holding his head up and his little mouth is all squshed. I would love to learn how to take pictures on my own of my little guy to capture all those great moments to remember.
Love this giveaway…with 5 kids and 2 on the way, pictures are priceless!
One of my favorite pictures is of Grant holding Maggie when she was old two weeks old. Maggie is only 3 months old now so this book would be perfect for us right now!!!
I love the big yawn moment. It’s so cute.
The newborn pictures are my favorite! Thanks for a great giveaway!
I love pretty much any picture of our daughter. She’s our first so I’m a little obsessed with taking pictures of her.
but a favorite recent one is of her trying to eat her toes. Wish I was still that flexible!
My favorite photo moments are of my son playing outdoors and discovering all the wonders of nature. He loves to find rocks and sticks and stomp around in every puddle. Seeing the excitement on his face when he finds a new rock is priceless! I’m looking forward to checking out ‘your baby in pictures’ for tips on how to improve our photos.
So sweet! Love the chubby thigh tips. My little guy just turned one – I need to get those rolls on camera!
I loved taking pictures of my daughter chasing bubbles and trying to capture the look of pure delight on her face.
My favorite photo is when my third baby was 6 days old and we went to get pictures. We got the best pictures ever, and I especially love the one of all three of my kids.
i love babies sitting in the white bathtub!!!
I am from the generation 30 years ago that took horrible baby pictures. I do have a few and they were ones I took in black and white while my baby was asleep. I tresure those.
My favorite pic of my twins are of them eating their one year cake. They each had their own but my daughter wasn’t really eating it so Hubby decided to “smash” it on her belly. She burst into tears.
I love the pictures of ears, nose and etc. Such fun. Thank you for the great article!!!!
My favorite photo moments are the candid ones. The ones where a baby or child doesn’t know you are taking photos. I feel those moments are the sweetest and most precious!!!
My desire to take my own pictures of my children started when a photographer I was using for newborn pictures used lotion to flatten my newborns “arangatane” hair-do. I wish so badly that I hadn’t let her do that because I only have the memory of her crazy hair but not a picture to show her when she grows up. It was unique to her and unique to me but unfortunately the photographer thought she didn’t need to capture that stage of her life. SO, bought my own camera and trying to capture what I want to remember…not someone else.
This is a great article!!! My favorite moments are when they are sleeping, holding tight to their animals or blankets! BUt I also love close up shots, as they are so intrigued with this big dark box clicking in front of their face!
My favorite photos are those my children take from their point of view when they whisk away the family digital camera.
We end up with this collection of their world view – toys, pretend battles, car races and the constant picture of looking up at mom and dad:)
I love catching my kids doing sweet thing when they don’t know I’m looking. Makes for great, natural photos!
I LOVE the pic of my daughter only a day old, in her isolette, showered by the sun coming through the window! I love it!!!
My fav photos are often the candid ones, when my children don’t know I’m taking a picture of them. That’s when I can capture their true smiles.
Favorite photo moment was when I captured my newborn and 2yr old lying down face to face looking at each other – so tender, so sweet. So thankful the photo turned out perfect – it’s one to treasure!
my favorite photo moments are when, the little siblings are asleep, with arms wrapped around each other. So adorable!
I’m having baby #3 in 4 wks or less and I’d love this!!
My favorite photo moments are when my son and the dog are playing together. Charlie is so small and the dog, Cotton, is so big, it’s ADORABLE.
my favorite moments are when Archer hits a button on one of his toys, music starts and he starts dancing.
I have way too many favorite photo moments. I always have my camera ready to shoot my favorite 2 year old and 6 year old subjects!
I love pics of when my kids are laughing and they don’t know I’m looking at them.
Capturing photo memories…a priceless treasure for me and them!
my favorites are of the kids with their treasured caterpillars or frogs they have found. You can’t make up wonder and amazement like their faces are showing!
you mean I have to pick just one!!! I don’t think I can do it!! LOL If so I’ll pick when the are sound asleep and so innocent…I just go ohhahhhh on those photos
