The Cutting Room Floor

We have a lot of photos of Nyana. We love to share them and we love to hear people oooh and ahhhhh over them. But they’re not always good photos. With the wonders of technology and digital cameras, we don’t need to worry about perfectly framing the shot first, or pay attention to the light. We can just let ourselves get snap happy and let the chips fall where they may. Here’s a handful of Nyana shots that found the cutting room floor.

Up close and personal with Nyana.

An overexposed, giant foot. The silly expression is pretty great, too.

At our NICU reunion. Half a person, a headless mum, two faceless babes sprawled out... all out of focus.

A salmon coloured bathtub ruined the lighting in this shot.

Nyana looks like she's taking a break from an exhausting photo shoot.

Oh, you know. Just hanging out with shadows on my face.

Why ten-month old babies should never take self-portrait photos.

Nyana gets some blurry kisses from Mum.

Auntie-Cousin Ang asked us not to post photos of her. I say it's OK because you can't see her anyways.

Sometimes a photo just needs an unhappy baby to be considered a bad photo.

Auntie-Cousin Kim also doesn't want her photo taken or posted. Again, I figure this is safe.

Yeah... should've known this wouldn't go well.

And sometimes, bad photos are still great photos.
