In December I did a shoot for my cousin, Charlotte. She is so beautiful and energetic and I just love that she wanted to get some photos of herself, we are constantly bombarded by Magazine covers with beautiful airbrushed girls and woman, and we always think that we are not pretty enough to get photos of ourselves, well people, being natural is prettier than airbrushed covergirls with no pores…really! I think it is wonderful to get photos taken of yourself, I got some taken of myself by Adele Cabanillas about a week ago – but more on that later in the week.
So why get a professional photographer to take your photos? We all need to document our lives whilst we’re still young. If I look at my baby photos I always wish my parents took me to a professional photographer, its so different to snapshots. People normally get professional photos done of their first born and then when the next kid comes they normally never do the same, they buy a camera and think they will take the photos, which is good, but its 100 times better to get some shots taken of you and your family at least once a year by a professional, especially if you think you are not photogenic or pretty, professional photographers know how to get that perfect image. And one day, when you are old and gray, you can look at your photos and appreciate it with your family members. I will do a post soon on how important photos can be, I found an old batch of photos in my grandmothers house, some photos date back to the 1800′s…
Meet my cousin Charlotte, we did these photos for her room. When its all done and up, I’ll upload a photo so you can see what it looks like :)
