When my kids get older the amount of photos that they will have of themselves is going to be staggering. When I was a kid my Dad took a ton of photos, my uncle as well but because they were using film being able to take a lot of photos and keep the best ones was virtually impossible. Lucky for me my Dad is a very good photographer and he captured special family moments all the time. I am lucky that I learned photography from him. I try to capture those simple special moments with my own family.
Here are some of my tips for capturing those special moments.
Pressed for time on the way to work looking for a neon sign. Where would I find a good sign? A Liquor store would have a bunch of great neon signs and if I still lived where we did a few years ago I would have passed 5 before I hit he highway but this is not the case now. I finally decided to snap the next place I could find with a neon sign and that was a Panda Express in a strip mall. I think the Open sign is the most cliche of them all. But that was all I could find. So I tried to make it a decent one.
