Photograph your life this month!

Life is short, and precious; and photography is the one way we can commit today’s image, today’s person, to eternity. No-one can ever take today’s “you” away once you have a photo!

So I urge you to take pictures – all the time. Learn to do it well (hint: I and many others can help).

And to have professional pictures taken, while you learn to do it yourself. Like this, from a recent family shoot:

How many of you have pictures like that of yourself?

This holiday season may be a good opportunity! If Santa gives you a new camera, ten hers is my assignment:

  • Spend the week before New Year’s Eve practicing;
  • Read this blog and search it;
  • And then on New Year’s Eve, photograph your entire family.

That way you will have those memories forever.
