Before Hubs and I met, he took photos as a hobby. I’m not sure if it’s because he had less free time after we started dating or some other reason, but he has done much less photography over the past 4 years since we met than he used to.
But now, Hubs has found the perfect subject for his photography: Lucy! And while I snap photos all day long on my iPhone, Hubs actually has a nice Canon for which he recently purchased a new lens. In the past 3 months, his photos of Lucy have been getting progressively better, and now some of them look almost professional.
Yesterday I decided to pick up Hubs’ camera and start snapping a few photos. Hubs commented that there are tons of high-quality shots of me with Lucy, but very few of Hubs, since most of the photos of him to-date were taken with my phone. So now, I am making a concerted effort to get comfortable with the camera so that Lucy can have great photos with her daddy too. I took one photography class in my senior year of college and found it to be very difficult — I ended up with nothing but a lot of blurry prints (despite many hours in the darkroom), so lucky for me (and Lucy) Hubs’ camera is still basically a point-and-shoot with autofocus.
Here are my favorite photos of Lucy from yesterday (I got some great ones with Hubs too but I am leaving those out to protect his privacy on the internets):
Hmmmm….
Loving Lucy
