I hesitated to write this post because I was afraid my clients would feel bad but they are super cool and gave me permission. Some of my photographer friends and I were talking the other day about how funny it would be to post blog entrys that were completely honest. Sometimes everything just isnt as perfect as we make it sound….. there are things about our jobs (as with any job) that just dont go exactly as planned every now and then.
this would be the case today… I could pull out 3-5 images that sweet baby Faith was semi smiling in but that wouldnt be the truth. OR, I could actually MAKE her smile in photoshop if I wanted to. Poor little thing, her belly was upset and she didnt have her medicine and her shoot didnt even get going. It kind of makes me laugh to look at the pics because in most of my blog posts everyone is happy and smiling and the “not so happy” images dont get published….

so just to give you some advice…. sometimes it just doesnt work…. not because of anything you did, or the baby did, or I did- just because sometimes it just doesnt work. That was the hardest part for me to learn about parenting, I am actually relearning it every day of my life… is that you really have no control over what your child decides to do or say at any given moment. I cannot tell you how many times I have been embarrassed over something one of my children decided to say or ask at the wrong time!
Just so you know, we did reschedule sweet little Faiths photoshoot for next week. We are going to get beautiful images of this baby if it kills us all! jk.
I did manage to get this one that I absolutely LOVE….
