have no photo's of me and my daughter

the digital photo camera has an option from where you can put the camera to make the picture in 10 seconds you put it somewhere and then go near your daughter and make a picture... i hope this is helpful!

I think Kelly Rippa (from Live with Regis and Kelly) said it best... "My kids will never know what I look like, because I'm not in one single photo in the house!" My children are getting old enough now, to start learning how to take photos. I have some with my girls (taken by my son) and some with the oldest and youngest.( taken by the middle child) someday, I'll actually get daddy to take one of all of us together, or get to a professional photographer for a real portrait to be done. For now, we'll just have search for those snapshots. :)

basically i think that's why timers on the cameras are made.. i guess you can make use of this feature more often so that you can have a family picture.. or what we do most of the time is have our pictures taken by somebody else that is not really a part of our family.. usually on tours we ask fellow tourists to take photos of us.. or i just usually wring my hands around my partner and i took a headshot of us together which i have mastered over the years.. it just needs a little work when there's four of us in the background... so i guess that's it.

well yes.. i agree with you its always the one who took the photos who are always missing lol!

If you can you and your daughter should go to a photo studio, even the automated photo booths in the mall will do and have your picture taken there. Another way to have your picture taken with your daughter is have a friendly neighbor or relative take your picture, if you want you could even ask her teacher to take your picture. The last idea I have is to buy a tripod and a camera with self-timer but this might cost you a little fortune. This was our dilemna too when I went to the beach with my husband and son, we only have 2 pictures that we are complete thanks to the friendly waiters in the restaurants we ate at. Eventually my husband bought a lightweight tripod that we can take to vacations.

We take our own family pictures. We use the timer so everyone can get in the picture. So I don't really have this problem. If you don't have a timer on your camera, you could always stand infront of a mirrow with your daughter and take a picture. Or you could put your heads together and just take a head shot and you can do that with one hand. It helps if you have a digital so you know it came out okay. I know me and my daughter always will take head shots together when it's just us and I don't feel like using the timer. There are ways. Maybe you can get a digital one day?

You sound like me..lol..I must have about that many od Skylar and my friends and family..but i can count how many i have with me in them..3 of me and Sky..im a single mom too and im also the one that always brings the camera..and wants the memories..so i take them and forget to get me in them..so its a big bummer..but what i have been doing lately is getting my webcam out and taking pics of us..and now that its been bothering me..im gonna make sure that i have someone else take a pics for me too..but if i forget i will always have the web cam lol..

I know what you mean, however we have a different problem. My husband and son are great with the camera and I am pathetic with the camera. Therefore, one of them is always missing. When we are on outings, we often ask a passerby (a family, so that they understand!) to kindly take a picture of all of us. They have always been very accomodating. This is something that perhaps you could do when out on outings with your daughter! You could even offer a tip of a couple of bucks. Most people don't mind at all.

It's me. Even my "camera shy, avoids having his picture taken at all costs" s/o has more pictures of him with the kids than I do. Part of it is because I'm the one taking the picture and part is because I'm the one running around keeping track of everything while the pictures are being taken. You know how it is on Christmas morning or birthdays, someone has to find the scissors to cut the toy out of the box, then get the screwdriver and batteries, then grab the younger sibling before he licks all the icing off the cake....the list goes on and on. I always had trouble with school projects too because they would never say what the pictures were for. Some pictures are special one of a kind photos and you never know if they're going to cut them up or glue them to something or otherwise make it impossible to ever get another copy made of the original. I just got my first digital so it's not like I had them all saved on my computer for whenever I needed them.

YES! There are only 2 pictures with me holding my daughter (who is 6 months old now) and that makes me so sad! We have hundreds of pictures of her, her and daddy, her and the dog, etc. but hardly any of me and her. Part of the problem is I've been very self conscience since having her and I don't like the way I look in photos. When she gets older I'm sure I'm going to regret not having pictures of the two of us, though. I already do. I wouldn't let anyone take pictures of me when I was a teenager either and now I wish I had. Natalie will never get to see what her mommy looked like growing up and I really hate that! I'm just an insecure person so I always take the pictures. That way I don't have to be in them.

I am the one in the family that always takes the pictures. Once in a great while I will be in a picture. Every Mother's Day I make sure there is a picture taken of me and my son. I have one of us for the past 15 years on Mother's Day.
