what I try to capture in every picture.

I ran across this article and thought of how true it really is. Before my daughter was born, I knew I didn't want to take her to any studio setting either at the mall, a formal studio or a photographers outside set up. Those types of pictures never appealed to me and after reading the comments at the end of this article, I realized that many people have not seen what "lifestyle photography" is and what I feel is the new generation of photographers. I agree snapshots are so important and I usually take out my point and shoot to capture my daughter in the kitchen cabinet or trying out her hand stand, but to me, the quality of those pictures don't matter - those are for her photo album, not the wall, but the moment is just as important.

So this post goes back to my style - I want to capture what you see every day, not how your child can tilt their head and hold their hands just right.
