Livia’s Shot

Posted on Aug 20, 2012 at 9:09 AM in Livia, Parenting

Sorting through some images this morning, I stopped on this fabulous photo of our little friend Kiah.

I paused for a minute, looked closely at the surrounding images and quickly realized I didn’t shoot it. Livia did. Using my backup camera, she walked through the Pioneers Park Nature Center capturing images that were interesting to her. Sweet and fun four-year-old Kiah qualified. This is a proud photographer-mama moment for me, peeps.

While Liv was clearly showing genius levels** of photography skills, I was doing my own thing. She captured me at work as well.

**If you know me well, you know that I’m bragging on my kid in good fun. We’re faced with lots of behavioral challenges lately and it’s a joy for me to see Livia do something well. This one pic turned out well. The others, not so much. ;)

    Beautiful work, Liv! I like the picture of Mama, too. It’s a great expression- very natural.

    The hand on the back of Kiah’s head and your expression are both at the height of the action! I’m not sure I could pull that off. You’ve got a pro in training.

    Your photography was a gift in your 20’s. I’m thrilled that Liv showed the gift early in life. I especially love the photo of Kiah…beautiful.
