Oh yeah you make me look good!
Create your own video slideshow at animoto.com.
Well bless my soul. This is worth checking out! www.animoto.com They'll make you look good, they'll make your family cry. People will think you have amazing talents plus the music selection is lovely. Gottcha - the free version only gives you 30 seconds. If you photograph family like me that is probably not enough. Now, if my husband can help me figure out how to put this on DVD for the grandparents that want to watch it 100 times I'll be set. You can also just beam it right to your facebook or blog. I mean EASY! I am sooooo not technical (did you catch that my husband will need to get it on a DVD for me.) I mean it was CAKE!!! Try it out! Keep shooting!

It's more than just a free comb!
It's school picture time again! Whoo Hoo! I remember that as the day we got a free comb at school. Free stuff at school is always top notch! I also remember that my photo seemed to be taken directly after I had been on the playground in a windstorm. My hair would be all crazy but that damn barrett did not manage to fall out leaving me with messy hair and no BANGS! I am a woman that needs her bangs!
Anyway.... what the heck doees this have to do with photography. Well... everything. I take more pictures of my children than I could ever manage to print, post or make in to slide shows with sweet sappy emotional music that will make me cry like a baby. BUT... my husband and I will still pay the $12 for the basic school photos.
Why would I do such a thing when I am able to capture with my lens the true essence of my children?
Confidence. Children may grow up and become embarassed and cringe at their old school photos. However, when they are young and you take these photos from school or from a professional like myself and hang them on the wall in your home, in grandma's home, in their favorite Aunt's hallways it inspires CONFIDENCE in them.
It's sooooooo easy. No Love and Logic training needed here. Don't read a bunch of books about how to build your children up. Just buy the photos hang them up and let those sweethearts shine. Tell them they are beautiful because they all are -- even the ones without bangs.
So, maybe kids are no longer as thrilled by the free comb as we were in the 1970's but I promise you that children today are the same. They want to feel beautiful, handsome, famous and fabulous and having their photos on their favorite walls will do that for them.
So, even though the economy is not at its zenith and we are all trying to live on less; dig a little deeper and get a photo of those gorgeous children on your walls!
I am now 40. I have a better haircut. The dog's name was Killer. The ducks: Laverne & Shirley. This photo still hangs in my parents hallway and every time I see it I think of 3 things. 1) How much my parents must have loved me to put up with a dog and 2 ducks. 2) My dog loved me. He looks so jealous. 3) What ever happened to those ducks? Hmmmm....
