Documenting Delight: day three hundred and eleven {camera phone}


Lately Finn has been getting up very early in the morning. Ridiculously early. Ever the trooper Lach has been getting up with him.

This morning when Harper and I woke up, Finn seemed happy and I asked Lach what they have been up to this morning.

“Finn’s been taking photos on your phone.”
OK then.

And so this new camera obsession continued after Lach left for work. I followed Finn around as he decided what to capture. What an amazing insight to see what interests him; a doorknob, our BBQ, his new shoes, screws in the furniture and picture book covers. Listening to his commentary was also hilarious:

“Oh, it’s all blurry!”

“Now just stand right there, very still.” (said to a cupboard door)

“That’s a beauty!”

Maybe we have another photo enthusiast in our family?

  3. That is great that he is taking his own pictures and showing appreciation for his work. Telling a cupboard door to stay still, what a classic! Lovely photos of his new hobby, I just love the last one of him showing Harper, so cute that she is interested as well.

  6. Seriously, I think Finn and Hannah are twins from another life! haha
    She does this all the time and has also been found telling inatimate objects to 'smile' and 'stay right there'! ;)
