"PICTURE IMPERFECT" :)

  Like many of you, our kids are involved in a variety of activities which keeps our schedule completely full & us on our toes:)  Between dance classes, dance props, dance competitions, band rehearsals, band shows & trying to still keep involved with our oldest daughter, who will be 20 in a few days--we live life.  We may not always have the quantity of time we want together but the quality is well worth the effort.  We have so many wonderful things to be thankful for, and having the opportunity to mix something we love (photography) in with activities our children are involved in makes quite a wonderful display of photos.  Think about the things your family does day in and day out- that's your life.  Why take the kids to a portrait studio with everyone dressed up, hair perfect, and the kids usually grumpy because this isn't how they dress every day?  Do something different this year..let's go to a park & take some photos of the kids laying in the grass (cloud animals are fun to find!).  How about if your child plays soccer or football & they come off the field with their hair a mess, their face all sweaty & dirty BUT they're grinning and laughing and proud of what they've done--that's a photo op:) That's how you see your kids, living a real life.  Very rarely are they "picture perfect" so think about putting some real life photos on your walls.  You won't regret it.  In fact, in years to come, you will treasure these photo memories because it is the journey your family has taken and it's not always perfect:) 
 Call us to book a session of "imperfect" memories!
