Look at the big moments…
Think about the memories that mean the most to your family. Big milestones like birthdays, graduations and holidays are great places to start thinking about photographing to tell a story. Little milestones are wonderful as well and occur more often so you can get plenty of practice shooting this way. Is your baby enjoying her first tastes of food? Did your preschooler learn to write his name or get dressed completely by himself? If these moments are important to you, grab your camera and practice getting more than a few snapshots next time.
