Yikes, I am in EVERY single photo in this post.
Okay, time to chime in Miss Carly Simon… I bet you think this post is about you, don’t you?
Now really, there is a point. When we go on vacations it is super easy to get lost in capturing the world going on around you.
Your mate, your kids, strangers, architecture, friends, food, some of you, or perhaps smoke billowing out of bright orange tubes.
HOWEVER, I think it’s quite important to be in the photo… together.
Self timer has become quite the friend – while traveling.
It may seem silly, but we have some sweet photos… I set up Paul, get the settings straight, hit the button and run into place.
BOOM a lovely photo of My P and Me.
Utilize Strangers. Find Reflections. Outstretch those arms baby and get one of those high school shots!
Just make sure you have some photos of Y’ALL… together!
Images below from three of our trips this year… Jamaica, NYC, and Philadelphia.
Just P & Me… together.in.every. single. photo.
