I was sooooo wrong...


I always thought I could take a great family photo.

All I needed was
 a better camera,
some decent lighting,
a somewhat cool background,
and the ever elusive
cooperative warm bodies...

Then, surely then, I would be able to take a great photo of la familia.

I was
  so, so 
wrong. 

 Believe me, I tried.
It wasn't pretty.

Enter the magnificent Micha Wixom.
Photographer extraordinaire and owner of Shuttergirl Photography .









Talk about saving me from myself.

Micha,
 you rock.
