I recently offered to the moms in my MOMS group to be my guinea pigs as I try out my photography skills. This past year since I haven't been working, I have been doing some soul searching trying to figure out what I could possibly want to do with my life career wise. I have always had the intensions of going back to school since I am only a few credits away from getting my Associates in Child Development Education. For as long as I can remember, I have always enjoyed being around children and that was one reason I decided to major in Child Development. Well, I did my volunteer hours and I worked at 2 different preschools during college and I really didn't get that satisfaction I was looking for in a career but I did love the kids. Working in the retail world didn't quite get that satisfaction either but I loved the interaction with a multitude of people and challenges the job came with. It wasn't until I was sitting at my computer, just looking at Caleb's 1 yr pictures that it just felt right. This is what I would like to do as a career....turning childhood moments into a lifetime of memories through photos.
Well today I had my first Mom client. Her son Christopher turns 1 yr tomorrow. Here are a few of the pictures...I really enjoy playing with the photos and trying to turning them into something precious. Some of my favorite pictures ended up being the ones I didn't like at first glance.
Since I was already at the Botanical Gardens that I take the boys pictures, I went ahead and took Hayden's 4 yr old pictures. I know his birthday is still a month away but I never know what the weather will be like in December. I was quite surprised. Normally I have to take about 100 pictures before I can get just 1 that I can live with. He has become quite the model...I just LOVE these pictures...
I can't leave out my little Baby Caleb so here are some pictures of Hayden and Caleb afterwards when we went to the playground and pond. I know...I hear it from everyone...what about Jacob? I will try and get some pictures of Jacob up soon...I do have to get their Christmas pictures done. I would put his school pictures up but my scanner is not working.
