Family is so important – documenting those special moments are too!  As a photographer, I have been guilty of not being in the photograph with my children, but rather documenting my children as they were growing up.  Don’t miss the chance to have heirloom photographs of you as a parent with your children.  Don’t worry about not looking good enough, losing weight or having your hair done – that moment will be gone and there is no way to recapture that special time with you in their lives.
