Family Candid Photos

They say a picture is worth a thousand words, so here's a short story about the family.  Today is officially family candid photos day (or candid photoes day, if you're Dan Quayle).  I bought this beautiful tool called a Nikon 35mm f/1.8 lens last week.  I wanted a sharp, fast lens so I could shoot family candids, indoors, without a flash, and at lower ISO.  Fortunately, I have a nice family of subjects, willing to have a lens stuck in their faces, sometimes without notice.

Here's a photo of a mother and her offspring.  It warms my heart to witness the loving bond between a boy and his mother.  Even after full maturation and adulthood, he will always be her bo-boy....

Here's a beautiful, young girl, hugging her future prince charming.  Hopefully, she sticks to frogs for the foreseeable future, otherwise her loving father will need to start cleaning his Remington shotgun and chase the dirty, rotten scoundrels away....I mean, her loving father will greet her friends at the door and make them feel welcome.

Here's a picture of a father and his young daughter.  Notice the striking similarity in head size, shape, and hair style.

Another photo of that cute, bald baby, from a frontal view this time.  She's probably thinking about the things she can get into at her uncle's house.  "Hmmmm, what Hummel figurine can I break this time???  It's a good thing my daddy has a good job and makes lots of money....I just love getting into stuff!"
