I like to think it is because they are in awe of my beauty. Or think I am a celebrity. (kidding) In reality, I'm sure it is just because they think I look weird with my bright orange hair!
Well, on our recent trip to Shanghai. John was hit by the paparazzi. We thought this grown man was offering to take a picture of Carter and Daddy on his first train ride. NOPE. He wanted a picture with John all for himself.
Take a look at how awkward this photo is! (they always are.)
Do you get close? Do you put your arm around their shoulder? Throw the piece sign up? Or just keep them by your side?
John was a good sport and the two became fast friends. John practiced his Chinese with the man until the conversation too became awkward with this question "How much money do you make each month?"
Hmm.....
"Not enough." Quick save John!
And I leave you with Carter. Into the baby book:
"First Train Ride!"
Oh my gosh, Sarah! I TOTALLY laughed out loud at this!!!!!! hahahahaha
ReplyDeleteI cracked up so much I was worried I woke my roommate. That's AWESOME! I love that you thought he wanted a picture of Carter and Daddy... nope, the random Chinese guy just wanted a REALLY SUPER AWKWARD picture of him and John! At least you guys are good sports about it - and any pic of Carter and you guys is awesome!
ReplyDeleteSooo, I'm finally getting caught up on my blog reading. I love the photo of you and Carter - you need to post more photos! He is such a cute little guy!
ReplyDeleteAs far as learning about photography goes, I'm a big fan of Scott Kelby's books. He does a few really easy books on digital photography. I also love "Understanding Exposure" by Bryan Peterson. It really delves into the basics of what goes into a perfectly exposed photo. Anywho - hope that helps! I'm all about "googling" things too when I'm wondering about something specific to photography.
THAT is hilarious....but really y'all are celebs!! lol!!!
