Theme: “Let’s Hear it for the boys!”

In honor of Father’s Day, we are featuring photos of the men and boys in our lives. No girls allowed this week!

Here is my favorite boy in the whole world! I didn’t want to pay for the T-ball team photos this weekend, since I know I can get shots just as good now that I’ve learned so much from I ? Faces:-) I pulled my son aside while the rest of the team lined up to get their photos taken. I think that is the only reason he posed… because all the other boys were doing it! ha! I was excited to get a good shot with his toothless grin. Plus I saved myself $25!

 

This was straight out of the camera with a little sharpening of the eyes.

FYI: All of my photos are taken with a very old Canon point and shoot.

  1. Your sound like me trying to save a buck! But really, in this case, you came away with a great picture of your little man. And nothing says boy in America more than this bat on the shoulder pose.

  3. Oh my gosh – I LOVE tball pictures!! It seems to be a popular theme this week. My “boy” photo was a tball moment as well, although not nearly as beautiful as yours! I am glad to know though that I’m not the only mom who deprived her boys of the ugly photos from the league approved photographer. Mine are still mad about the whole thing.

  5. You done good! 🙂 I’m totally the same way. I’m even guilty of scanning my first born’s hospital shot and then returning the photo in my efforts to save $$. I’d say your old Canon is working out great for you. This is a very clear shot. I LOVE the missing teeth. My son looks the same way except that he’s missing the ones on the bottom.

  8. What a great picture! You captured a great moment! Baseball, missing front teeth and a much worn ball cap!
    I can’t wait for ball caps at our house! I’m guessing i’d have to cut Max’s hair otherwise a ball cap wouldn’t fit over the mop!

  12. He’s the cutest!!! What a great photo…so bright and fun, and all boy. Beautiful picture!

  13. Amy, this is adorable!!! How long has he had that smattering of freckles across his nose? I don’t recall ever noticing freckles on his adorable little face!!

  15. love the little smattering of freckles

  16. Yelena R, says:

    Wow! Great shot! Especially for it being straight out of the camera. Oh, a great job on saving the money. Why pay for a generic photo when you can take a better one yourself for free?

  17. Oh, we do the same thing. Between a bunch of kids playing soccer, basketball and baseball, I can’t keep up paying for all the photos … so I take my own.

    Your shot is excellent. Great color and focus. Nice and sharp.
