It's important for Mommy




Since I spend so much time behind the lens, I tend to forget how important it is for my kids to have pictures of them with their mommy. Next Sunday is Mother's day- and the best gift I could give myself was to surrender my beloved camera to Bum for a few minutes. I don't like the way I look- but it is me, with my babies. He doesn't understand Manual- but is too stubborn to let me put it in an auto mode for him, so I had to doctor these quite a bit.
We even attempted a family shot- with just a timer and without a tripod... Not so hot, but with the simple addition of a remote and tripod it could improve.

I need to surrender mine too. Or get out my handy dandy remote. That second pictures is just precious. Ok, they both are, but I especially love that second one.

Great pics!! I need to remember to take more of myself with the kids too.

What precious, precious pictures :) I try to take pictures with Maggie and I regularly. Hubby and I are both horrible about remembering to take pictures - so most of ours are ones we get from family after visits. Hahaha
