My Budding Photographer

Before I get into Ella's early love of photography, I want to share this picture I found in her school folder. She drew it at school. When I saw it, I thought it was so cute. Here it is:



It is a picture of Ella and a girl at school and it says "I like you. Do you like me?" I thought it was really brave and really cute of her to make this and give it to her classmate at school :)

Anyhow on to the photography. For as long as I can remember Ella has been obsessed with cameras. She has had play cameras for a long time. When she turned two she was given a Kid Tough camera but the batteries would die every 2 hours it seems. She is always shooting pics on my cell phone. She was super excited when my friend Trish gave her her own disposable camera on her 4th birthday at the zoo so she could take pictures of whatever she wanted! And the Easter Bunny just brought her a camera in her Easter basket. I don't often let her use my big expensive camera cause I don't want her to break it. But I recently let her use it and she had such a good time, and she did so good at it, that I am thinking of letting her do it more often. Perhaps Santa has to bring her her own digital camera this year :)

Enjoy her shots at Heritage Square, Phoenix
