Top 7 Milestones For Your Family Photo Album
Family photo albums, digital or traditional, hold unique and special memories. They are filled with the life you have created with the ones you love and the family you grew from the very beginning. But with so many years of time spent together how do you know what moments you should include in your album? Here are the seven most important moments that you'll want to have documented so you can look back on and smile on years later.
1. Baby Firsts
Documenting your baby's firsts are memories you'll want to capture and reflect on in the years to come. From the first steps, first holidays and first birthday, these are all special occasions that you'll want to photograph.
2. Birthdays
It not uncommon to have pictures of every one of your child's birthdays but there are a few that you'll want to have some extra picture of. As mentioned, the first birthday is always a significant milestone but so are 13th, 16th and 18th birthdays.
3. School days
The difference a year makes will astonish you when you compare their first day of school image to their last. Have your camera ready for their first day of preschool, kindergarten, 1st grade, middle school and then high school. Then capture them on their last day of school so you can compare the two. Once your children get to a certain age they most likely won't be as cooperative for the first and last day of school picture so when they are young you should take full advantage of it.
4. Dances
When your little one gets ready for their first school dance is a moment you'll want to have in the family photo album. Whether it’s their first middle school dance, high school dance or prom, this is a moment that you'll want to look at and enjoy when they are older.
5. Achievements/Hobbies/Activities
Kids will bounce from one activity to another rather quickly. Whether it's different sports like baseball, gymnastics, or golf or more creative hobbies like pottery, painting or dance there will be times when you'll want to have your camera close by to get a quick picture. Including these types of images in your family album will not only bring a smile to your face as a parent but will also remind your kids of the things they used to love to do when they need a reminder.
6. Graduations
While you have many proud moments throughout your child's life, watching your child graduate will bring on a whole new level of pride. From kindergarten graduation to their high school graduation, these are significantly important days in yours and your child's life.
7. Weddings
From your wedding day to your child’s wedding day and even your parents 50th wedding anniversary, you'll want to include these in your family album. Weddings are not only one of the most important days in your life but they are a day that marks a new beginning. The new beginning for your family as well as the one your children will have. They are days filled with love, joy, and laughter which is what your family album is all about.
