Tender Moments

One of the best parts of being a photographer who's also a dad is walking into the room with a camera and catching something like this...

Here's a tip for catching great photos of your family. Leave your cameras accessible. (Warning: If you have little kids like I do, leave your cameras accessible TO YOU, not everyone!) One of the things I realized dramatically increased the number of special moments captured in photos was having a camera where both Rose and I can quickly grab it. Having the camera tucked into a camera bag, or disassembled, makes it nearly impossible to photograph the split-second shots that really show the day-to-day around the home. So, find a high ledge on top of the bookcase, put your favorite lens on your DSLR, and let it wait in ready to capture your family's tender moments.
