Ok I have to admit it, I am a proud father.  Becoming a father has been one of the best, most profound, important, yet difficult and scary things I've ever done in my life, but to use an old cliche, "I wouldn't trade them for nothing".  Saw a bunch of parents at Walmart the other day clamoring to have their children photographed "fast food style", and had the thought, My children will never have to worry about me putting them through that.  My children are my best test models and as a proud daddy I photograph them everyday.  How many other photographers out there have a camera in their childrens face on a regular basis?
Post some of those pics here.

Here are my pride and joys!

I am one of them. Always, every day. My kids get so mad at me. But my youngest one, he's become quite the little model. He sometimes asks me to get my camera out. My "children's" catagory in my OMP is filled with him. Lol...

My daughters are my best models....  plus they are usually on hand when I see a location that would make a great shot.

My oldest is so used to getting her picture taken that you can point a camera at her and she poses.  It makes it hard to get candid shots of her.  She has cameradar or something smile)

My kids want to see the pictures right after I shoot so as soon as I snap the shot they run to the camera to view it on the LCD screen or on the computer

Mine are little hams. And my favorite phtographic subject, although I only have one of my daughter on my port.

One of my favorites of my kids:

I take far too many photos of my boys.  In fact, I'm pretty sure I've scarred my oldest one for life.  Everytime I point my camera at him lately I get the "blank stare into space" look.  There are still those few times where I can sneak in a great candid though.  Poor kid. smile  My youngest it still oblivious to it.
