Erin Farrell Photography – Delaware Wedding Newborn Baby Infant Child and Children's Photographer Wilmington Delaware DE

When you’re a photographer, you may have great shots of your kids, but unfortunately, Mommy rarely is seen in front of the camera.  Fortunately, I have many great photographer friends who are always willing to do a session swap.  A couple weeks ago, I was the one stressing over what to dress the family in and I was so undecided that I actually bought Molly two different shirts, CJ got a new pair of shorts AND a new pair of jeans and my husband now owns three more polo shirts.  But, it was all worth it in the end, because my good friend Beira captured some AWESOME images of my family.

It was actually fun being on the other side of the camera and surprisingly, I had a pretty easy time “letting go” and letting Beira tell me where to go and what to do.  I did have a little tea party set-up that I wanted to do though.  My husband thought I was a little crazy for a.)having CJ participate in a tea party and b.)having someone else photograph it.  But I didn’t want to have to deal with keeping the kids happy AND getting everything set up and taking the pictures.  It was easier to just worry about the kids and not the actual picture-taking.  And CJ LOVES tea parties.  Especially ones where there are plates of food.  I swear, I think he had more fun than Molly.  He happily shoved graham crackers in his mouth while rocking back and forth going “mmmmm . . . . . mmmmmm”

Thanks again Beira!  It warms my heart to look at these.  I hope I got some ones of you and your family tonight that make you just as happy. 🙂
