Nilsson Family Photography

In the past few months I have stumbled upon several blogs from friends I had in high school. Although I knew these folks were talented I had no idea that so many of them were into photography. I think I have four friends from high school that are doing photography semi professionally and several others who are enjoying photography as a hobby. To be honest, I thought that if any one should be gifted with a camera it should be me! My mother is amazing, as many of you know, and I would think photographic skill would be genetic. As it turns out, I did not inherit the artist's eye but the photography gene may still run in my blood. It seems the photogene skips a generation. Lily love the camera, or being behind it, anyway. She always wants to hold the camera and the other day I finally let her. I showed her how to push the button and let her have at it. As you will see from the following photographs, her talent is undeniable. Her sense of focus and (insert photographic terms from Wikipedia) is amazing. I think I have my retirement locked it with this one. And really, lets be honest, maybe I should pursue that modeling career. I love how she has captured my true self.

Though there are some minor composition flaws, I would say the overall presentation is stimulating and mutually conducive to a cerebral experience for audiences of all ages.

Meg I was really getting into reading your post and as I scrolled down out burst a unexpected roar of laughter! Lily, this could be just the beginning of a exciting career in photography. Maybe you should submit this post to the Oprah's amazing and talented kids show? No but seriously... keep it up Lily! You are off to a great start :)
