Who knows the nuances of children better than the parents. Take a bit of time and learn what you can do with a camera. You arent burning through rolls of film.
@kingwooddiscgolf: Good photography is a LOT more complicated than that. Plus, like was said above, then you won't be in any pics and your kids will probably appreciate that some day. Personally as a professional photographer and a dad, I like to just enjoy the moment with my family rather than always creating images.Â
For the kid's birthday party, check out Sasha Boheme. http://www.sashaboheme.com/She lives near me in Hunter's Ridge and is the mother of 5 incredibly well behaved kids. For senior pics, check out KellyAnneStyle. Kelly is the best in the Kingwood/Humble area by far for senior pics. I don't think anyone else even comes close.
