I was going through pictures the other night and noticed I’m getting quite a collection of shots taken by my sweet six year old. Ellie has been showing a lot of interest in my camera lately. Every time she grabs it to snap a picture I feel a mix of excitement (that she’s showing an interest in photography) and total stress and anxiety (watching her handle my SLR like it’s one of her toys).
A few moments she has captured….
focus needs a little work…
Now we’re in focus but the look on Addison’s face is a bit scary…and so are my roots.
Love this of Addison watching Little Bear – typical scene at our house.
I was pretty impressed with these two of Kole that she took sometime over the summer. She even got him laughing.
One afternoon after church she had us all get on her level so she could take a family shot. First pic wasn’t so bad…
Might need to adjust a few things…
and SNAP! Perfect family photo! We’re talking Christmas card material here.
(Kenny didn’t need his head anyway)
Enough for now Ellie!
We’ll keep working on this new little hobby of hers. :)

That last one is a riot. “Stop! You’re going to wake up your brother!!!” :)
Love it! :o)
Oh I wish that last one was a video! :)
Very cute.
Fun to see you last night….I totally forgot to tell you something that I wanted to tell you.
Hey, some of those were really good, impressive for a six year old! And I dont think I could handle my kids practicing with my SLR, you are a nice mom.
Adorable. You are such an awesome mom to celebrate her ‘hobbies’.
I feel axious when my kids pick up my SLR too! Great pictures! Heck, she’s getting the hang of it faster than I am :)
CUTE!!! Love it!
You’re so brave. I work for a wedding photographer and I don’t even let my kids look at the SLR! She’s doing great – maybe Santa needs to bring her a camera of her own for Christmas!
Oh, these are the CUTEST shots! Love!
