Learning to Live With Locations

So I've found myself getting really picky about shots. I was having a hard time dealing with less desirable backdrops or lighting and in return, missing some of Sienna's funnest moments. She just is not always going to be her cutest when it is most convenient for my camera. So this entry is about just dealing with what I've got and making the most of it.

I made this collage for our errand day this week. Just Sienna being Sienna and me observing and not trying to get anything extra out of her for a shot's sake.


This one is a daytrip we took to Cornbellies. At first I kept moaning and groaning about it being noon and the sun so harsh, but she was being so cute I just got over it. And as a result, I have some in action photos that will remind me just what an active and attentive baby girl she is.

cute collages! I have been thinking about that lately too. I think there is definitely room in photography for snapshots. The cutest moments seem to be the most inconvenient for my camera. :)
