“Perfect” Photos are Boring
Pregnancy and childbirth transform your body – sometimes in a not so wonderful way. You still carry a few extra pounds, your hair is falling out, you’re exhausted and the last thing you want to do is a family photo/film session. Trust me, I’ve been there and I totally understand.
However, our children grow so darn fast, and capturing these magical moments is priceless. Believe me, when your kids are all grown up and look at their photos or films, they will not see a few extra pounds that you carried. They will only see all the love that you shared with them (even looking exhausted).
“Perfect” photos are boring. We have a big responsibility to be a good role models for our kids. Constant complaints about our body issues should not be part of their childhood. They need to see us comfortable in our own skin, because that will help them feel secure in who they are.
Photos or film of your family (including YOU) is something you and your children will cherish forever. Being loving and caring parents is what they will always remember. Whether you’re taking a self-portrait or hiring a professional photographer, take these photos.
