Glimpses {Week 2}

I started my photography business last year, not too long before I had baby #2. And I had heard stories from people about how they have so many more pictures of their first child than their second, but I promised I would never do that. Guess what? He's only 8 months old now, and I'm already doing it! Obviously not because I love my son any less than my daughter, but life is just a lot busier now than it was when she was his age. And I find that now that I've officially started my business, I'm reluctant to share pictures unless they are something I would put in a client gallery. But that's all wrong. And I'm ready to fix it!

That's why I've decided to participate in a great little project on the Chic Critique Forum called "Glimpses" that encourages photographers to take a little break from documenting other peoples' lives and remember to document their own. So each week, I'll share a glimpse into my life with you here on my blog. And I love that they call it "Glimpses" - because it will be exactly that. Not a technically perfect portrait.


Although it's my first week because I'm a little late to the party (anyone who knows me personally won't be surprised by that!), it's actually week 2 for the project. So here is my image for week 2:

My little man got his very first haircut this past weekend at Pigtails and Crewcuts. I have to admit that I was kind of sad to see his wispy little curls go, but I love his nice clean cut. And although he was a little wiggly, he was very well-behaved. No tears at all. HUGE difference from Anna's first haircut -which she got from my lap because she freaked out about sitting in the chair. lol.

Hopefully, I can keep this up. I know I'll love looking back at it at the end of the year! Wish me luck (I'll need it!)
