Itty Bitty Photographer

Any parent of small children can tell you that they will embrace the concept of imitation to an exact degree.

Over the past few days, Sydni has dedicated her time to watching [and helping] me photo-document jewelry design and some various shutter speed experiments. While she's still a bit shy of being allowed to play with the big camera, she knows where to find the smaller digi's, and when she does, it's usually proofed by a slew of random snapshots: floors, walls, fingers, blurred faces, etc. Yenno. Kid photography.

This evening I found her lying on the living room floor with the SD up to her face, turning it back and forth to get that perfect angle. It was, for lack of a better term, adorable. A few minutes later, she came running to me with the camera, and showed me this.

Really?

Not bad at all, for a 2-year-old. She was ever so proud in declaring, "Sydni do it! Sydni do it!," and I was so proud of her for both the simple capture and for being so thrilled with herself. I also realized that we've got a lightbulb out. Add that one to the honey-to-do list.

This week is flying by. Can you believe it's 2012 already?
I still can't. Sigh....
