For many years Sarah believed she would never have the kind of family photos that most parents took for granted. Sarah’s twin boys have autism. The quirky and unpredictable behaviours that can accompany that condition mean “you can’t just take them to the local studio and have them smile for the camera on cue: their mother explains. But Sarah’s dream of having family portraits taken came true when she met Bill from Essential Photography. Bill specialises in photographing families who have children with autism. “Sarah understood  that her sons were allowed to shine in their own way,” Bill said.

1. We hold ourselves back when we do not fully accept ourselves for who we are. Imagine not comparing yourself to anyone else. Instead, live your life as you are and be happy in how you see yourself.

We begin to understand who we are because we are not trying to change what we are. Acceptance is about letting go of the idea that you must be something other than what you are. Imagine looking at yourself for where you are now and seeing with clarity everything

This is a copy of the letter left on the doorstep of a professional photographer, Jeanine Thurston. Written by Karen L. “Portraits are more than paper”   First Posted on January 2, 2012 Today I am writing for a couple of reasons. I have some quiet time at the moment and need to get a couple of things off my mind. I will leave this for my husband to deliver to you when he is ready.

So, you’ve just had a child, a bouncing baby boy or a darling little girl, and you’re wondering whether or not you should pay for professional baby portraits. You’d love some nice pictures of your new bundle, but the price tag puts you off. You’ve a bevy of new expenses, everything from cribs and clothing to bottles and baby wipes. Adding another item to that list? Well, you’re simply not sure. That’s understandable. But consider three reasons why professional baby portraits are  worth the time and expense. For memory’s sake. Childhood is possibly the most evanescent stage of development. Blink once, and the bald-headed baby shooting you a toothless smile transforms into a fuzzy-headed toddler with a gap-toothed grin.
