My Girls
Thursday, December 13, 2012
Lately, I have been thinking about the photos I take. And more importantly, the photos I am IN. A few weeks ago, I realized that I have not been in very many photos since Evelyn was born, and that made me sad. I want to be present with my kids, and I also want them to look back at pictures and remember that I was present with them.
I don't want to always be behind the camera, but I want to make more of an effort to be in front of the camera, even when I don't necessarily feel photogenic. I just want to make memories, you know? And have photos, no matter how imperfect or silly they might be, to document how we spend our days.
Today, I am linking up with Emily @ The Anderson Crew, and I am going to be making more of an effort to embrace the camera in the days, years, moments ahead.

I love that idea, to be present in front of the camera. I read a good post on that a while back - here it is if you want to read it :)
