We&#8217;ve been thinking about this topic for quite some time. Around this time last year, The Huffington Post published an article called The Mom Stays in the Picture by Allison Tate that highlights an epidemic among parents: being a Behind the Scenes Parent. This article is centred around moms and their aversion to the camera but really, depending on the family dynamic, both parents may be affected. Our favorite quote from the article is:<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>&#8220;But we really need to make an effort to get in the picture. Our sons need to see how young and beautiful and human their mamas were. Our daughters need to see us vulnerable and open and just being ourselves &#8212; women, mamas, people living lives. Avoiding the camera because we don&#8217;t like to see our own pictures? How can that be okay?&#8221;<\/div>\n<div><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2178\" title=\"Dragi and Dorian Proud Parent - Family Photography by DA Photography\" alt=\"Dragi and Dorian Proud Parent - Family Photography by DA Photography\" src=\"https:\/\/daphotostudio.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/DA-Photography_2736e.jpg\" width=\"1220\" height=\"921\" srcset=\"https:\/\/daphotostudio.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/DA-Photography_2736e.jpg 1220w, https:\/\/daphotostudio.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/DA-Photography_2736e-300x226.jpg 300w, https:\/\/daphotostudio.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/DA-Photography_2736e-1024x773.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1220px) 100vw, 1220px\" \/><\/div>\n<div>When do you feel vulnerable? Think of someone staring at you. Their eyes are locked on you and what is the first thing that comes to mind? Is there something wrong with me? Is there something in my nose? Well, let&#8217;s try ramping up that anxious feeling by 200%! Adding in a photographer that you just met and a camera lens that picks up every &#8220;flaw&#8221; can be worrisome. Not to mention the ability of PhotoShop to get all up in your business during the editing process. While all of this might sound daunting, I&#8217;m here to tell you it doesn&#8217;t have to be!<\/div>\n<div><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2175\" title=\"Baby Fun with Daddy - Family Photography by DA Photography\" alt=\"Baby Fun with Daddy - Family Photography by DA Photography\" src=\"https:\/\/daphotostudio.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/DD-Photo1.jpg\" width=\"1220\" height=\"1220\" srcset=\"https:\/\/daphotostudio.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/DD-Photo1.jpg 1220w, https:\/\/daphotostudio.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/DD-Photo1-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/daphotostudio.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/DD-Photo1-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/daphotostudio.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/DD-Photo1-1024x1024.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1220px) 100vw, 1220px\" \/><\/div>\n<div>As a photographer I see it all and I maintain a highly professional attitude when it comes to the insecurities we hold onto when having our photo taken. I don&#8217;t believe anyone has flaws. Any imperfections you have make you even more human to me. Just as beauty is in the eye of the beholder, so are your imperfections. No one else sees the flaws we see in ourselves. However, if I sense that a mother is worrying about her mid-drift or dad is worried about his hairline, I will work with them in poses that help minimize these flaws in the image. The beauty of a two-dimensional photo is that you can trick the camera into only picking up or emphasizing what you want it to. This by no means guarantees that I can work miracles but, it is helpful in creating an image you can be proud of.<\/div>\n<div><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2176\" title=\"Baby's First Christmas - Baby Photography by DA Photography\" alt=\"Baby's First Christmas - Baby Photography by DA Photography\" src=\"https:\/\/daphotostudio.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/DA-Photography_2824.jpg\" width=\"813\" height=\"1220\" srcset=\"https:\/\/daphotostudio.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/DA-Photography_2824.jpg 813w, https:\/\/daphotostudio.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/DA-Photography_2824-199x300.jpg 199w, https:\/\/daphotostudio.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/DA-Photography_2824-682x1024.jpg 682w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 813px) 100vw, 813px\" \/><\/div>\n<div>When using PhotoShop, I take into consideration the family I&#8217;m working with.
