so I learned something from Martha Stewart
When I was pregnant with Jax, I watched a lot of baby related shows (Baby Story, John & Kate plus 8.. I probably had TLC on all day long). So when Martha Stewart had an all baby special, guess who was watching! There was a lot of cutesy stuff and great mom finds and such, but the only thing I made a note of from that show was this photography idea: for the first year of your child's life, take a picture of him/her each month wearing the same outfit. Such a simple yet clever idea. So that is what I did with Jax. Now that he is approaching 13 months, I've compiled his 1-12 month pictures. It's amazing the amount of change babies go through in the first year!

Very cool idea, and what a doll!!! My best friend is doing something really cool with her 9 year old boy. She's taking a snapshot of him every day for one year, and compiling them into a composite at the end of the year. He is wearing a random outfit in each shot, and they can be shot anywhere (indoors, outdoors, etc.). I'm excited to see the finished product, he's such a ham, and also at the age where he picks out his own clothes, so not everything is perfect......such a sweet idea!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fabulous idea, Emiko! That's quite the commitment to remember to take a picture every single day for an entire year! Definitely worth it though, especially to see the fun mismatched outfits a 9-yr-old puts together! I'll have to file this idea away and use it in the future! Thanks! :)
