...and it was my daughter's birthday.

LaFoto · Apr 8, 2005

So here are yet another couple of very snapshotty pics (sorry, I am no better...):

Her candles, 12 to mark who old she got and the centre one for the new year she's entering.

The "birthday-child" herself - blurred from camera shake. Grrr! And smiling unnaturally... its very hard to get her look natural these days as soon as she knows there's a camera pointing at her...

Having cake with her granddad as one of her guests...

... and her mother and brother as the only others (how boring):

...until this "guest" came around, too:

(Mia, the cat)

That was it...

LaFoto!!!! What a great series of pictures. It's so hard to pick a favorite. I adore the 2nd to last, the one with Mia getting a bit of cake :mrgreen: I also really like the ones of your daughter and her grandfather. Very well done and such a beautiful daughter that you have!

These are really great LaFoto!
I always enjoy "seeing into someone's life" with photos like these.
Your daughter is definately smiling naturaly in the picture when she is with the cat.

Great series!

Thanks for sharing!

Thank you my friend. I almost feel like I was there... in that sense, snaps they may be, but they tell a story well worth the telling. Thank you.

IMO, there is nothing better in this world than family.

Thanks for sharing the photos of your family, and Happy Birthday to your daughter.

Thank you all for being so kind about my snapshots. I try to capture some moments at each and every birthday, so that's how and why these came about.

The photo of the "funny guest" (Mia, the cat) is the best - I think so, too.

My daughter is very unhappy about the swim goggle marks in her face that show so clearly, while she had tanned so nicely and deeply during her two week swim camp in Turkey from where she had only returned a couple of days before her birthday. Personally, I envy her for tanning so easily...

And I would love to have her as my "model" more often, but it is difficult...
