I think my son Aidan is going to be a photographer :) Julie says he's going to be a singer/songwriter. I admit, he's got musical talent too so he might do both.

He's a funny kid. Yes Liana.. I think he might be a dancer too! Or at least he won't be the kid leaning against the wall at the school dance, that's for sure! He's always saying "Daddy, come dance with me!"

Oh yeah.. about the shiner David, He got that a couple days ago when he was playing the piano and turned around and tripped falling into a table. It swelled up pretty good and gets darker each day. Perfect timing for the holidays with family coming over and plenty of cameras around :)

I loved the sound effects that he made while trying to hold the camera still. That's awesome. Pretty soon he might be better than his dad!

Maybe the shiner helps with the shooting?! Remeber Larry Bird played better ball after breaking his finger because he had to think about the motion of his hand? That's it. Look out coffee table, here I come!

Mike- that is awesome!! I can't wait till my little guys are able to hold down the shutter like Aidan. Question for you.... what are you recording that photo session (dare I say, modeling session) with? Was Aidan shooting with the D2Xs?

Peace and Merry Christmas

He is great! I have 3 years old and we were planning to give him kid's digital camera for Christmass. But they are out of stock everywhere. :-( Has to wait till January. Instead, his god's mother gave him film camera. I think we will start from basics... :-).
Happy Holidays, Mike!!! Thank you for sharing! You kid is adorable.

I love doing the same thing with my 4-year old son. It's great to see the shots he comes up with. Makes me pause and think a bit about what I do when I'm shooting. I love the honesty of kids' art. My boy's biggest problem is keeping the heavy D200 steady. Maybe I should buy him a D50 for his birthday. Maybe we could get Nikon to sponsor a "first camera" program :)

Absolutely hilarious! You've got to post a few of those images on your blog, or auction them off for Thirst Relief or something! LOL!

Miss you and Julie! Hope to see you in TX!
