A Mothers Gift
Posted on January 6, 2010
When we think of photos, most of it is thoughts of a happy-joyous time and occasion, but sometimes we are faced with some unhappy moments and as painful as some moments can be, photos can be the lifeline.
This sound piece says it all…. It tells how important and special at least ONE photo can be to a mom.
Charlie Joe | 6 months

I have to admit that I have high expectations.. for myself that is! When my SIL mentioned family pictures this year I literally cringed. Not because I dont love my family or hers, I just know what happens when we try to do family photos. Lets just say, momma is not a very peachy momma. I think partly its because I automatically expect my family to know EXACTLY what to do. And that is SO silly of me. Trying to get all of the kids looking ahead without a goofy smile or the boys making gestures with their hands- its nearly impossible. I had to enlist my SIL to push the shutter as we kept yelling at everyone to look at her and smile. All the meanwhile trying to also get the baby to smile – ugh. By the end of our family photo session I needed a big piece of chocolate and a nap!
After we did the family section of photos, it was time to do Charlie Joe’s 6 months photos. Once again, I had all these great ideas and hats that I wanted to use. I was for sure he was going to be great.. I mean at home he is all smiles and so much fun! But this kid is just too smart! Once that light comes on and the camera comes out- he is not having ANY of it!!! I was so sad and so frustrated. Doesnt this kid know that he is suppose to cooperate and be the best little subject!!!! Although I was not able to get what I really wanted (maybe I will attempt it again soon) I was able to snap a few good ones. My little guy is growing so much and so fast.
Hello world!

I am so excited for the new year… although I can’t believe its 2010!!!!! I feel like I have finally hit that stage in life where I am older than most of the people I know…… ugh. Even though I do not like the look of my aging hands or body, I am excited to announce some great things in store for Jax Creations Photography for 2010.
For right now, you will have to enjoy the new blog and wait for the other goodies!
