why you should consider To Have A Family Photoshoot

We are looking at our children today. Our sweet babies. Beautiful people who grow and change so fast. We grab the camera, capturing every moment of their lives. Every smile and frown. Every important moment. However, in ten, twenty or thirty years, our children will grow up and reach for family albums in search of memories.

They will want to see how we lived as a family, what the young mum looked like, and what the daddy looked like when he still had hair 😉 But what will they see instead?

They will see a lot of their photos. Dozens, hundreds of shots of themself. Yes, beautiful, but ...

OUR FIRST PHOTOS TOGETHER

Photos of my daughters and me together.I CAN'T IMAGINE NOT HAVING THEM.

This photo was taken by my sister when Julia was only a few hours old. I am grateful to her for these beautiful memories.

This photo was taken by my husband, priceless memories. Lili was no more than a day old.

The most common excuses

What excuse do we have today for not being in front of the camera with our children?

I look bad.
I'm making dinner.
I didn't do my hair or makeup.
I look too fat or too skinny.
I am not photogenic.

Is this what you tell our children when they ask for old family photos?

Why should you like being in front of the camera?

We are changing. We are getting older. Our appearance changes, and it is lovely to look at the photos of our parents and grandparents from the old days when they were still young and see their features in ourselves. It is beautiful to see the emotions we shared and the feelings loved ones gave us. Photos are priceless souvenirs; let's not take them away from our children.

Once in a while, once a month, or a few times a year, we can ask someone to take a picture of us together. Slow down. Notice how the days go by and capture the moment, here and now.

Family selfie is always a good idea 😉

Some days more the others, I appreciate all those special memories we have created. All the smiles and hugs. All the photos my husband took of me (I forced him to take most of them😂) and the ones I took with the self-timer or selfie stick are precious to me. What I know for sure is that my children already love going back to the past. My children remember many events only from pictures. Looking at our family albums, they look at their photos and laugh at how jagged they were, but they also look at me and remember our trips together and family events.
