Capturing Life Moments Through Her Eyes

Lil Pumpkin has taken an interest to photography and it's very fascinating to see what catches her eye, and how she composes the photo to snap them. She used to collect "treasures" in her make-up bag, which made it really heavy. Now she collects them on film, which is a much better option I reckon!

We lent her one of our old mobiles to snap photos as it's much easier to handle & lighter compared to a regular camera. She, erm, also likes to edit photos with the mobile apps hahahaha. Adding colour filters, funny stickers, drawing etc.

Previously, she used to shake a lot when taking the photo so the pictures came out blurry. After some coaching on focusing and holding the mobile still, I think her skills have improved tremendously and some of her shots are pretty good actually.

Have a look for yourself :)

Typical selfie

Yeah kid of a blogger for sure. Lil Pumpkin knows how to change to the front camera and likes to take selfies of herself hahahaha... She usually holds the mobile too low so the angle isn't very "flattering", but it's just so darn cute.

Typical selfie with friends

Ahh yes, Lil Pumpkin also likes to invite others to take photos with her. She met this girl at a restaurant we were at and they clicked together immediately. I love her she's so cheery and makes friends easily.

All that Glitters

I like how she cropped this photo instead of just taking a photo of the whole hand.

Weapons of Destruction

She took this when we went for the backstage tour after the RWS LightSeeker Musical. I remember her taking other nice photos of the stage and characters we met but couldn't find it in her camera roll. I think she deleted them.. well, at least one of us clears our camera roll periodically!! :P

Dear Daddy

Lil Pumpkin will also ask us to stop and pose for her too... and sometimes, she'll "direct" us on the poses and tell us "not like this... like this {and shows the pose}" ^^V

Hey Tall Person

She took this photo of Juria while we were out on a walk with some friends {where we visited Singapore's last hot springs in Sembawang}. This shows a good angle of how she has to look up at us adults. We don't usually think about it much but don't the children's necks feel strained to do this all day??!

Shabu Shabu Pork

Quite the foodie as well, she will whip out her mobile during meal-times and take some photos #justlikemummy

Mushroom Soup

A rather clear and sharp shot of her mushroom soup during a family lunch. Yeah, she doesn't sit on a high-chair nowadays so she's juuuuust above the table height haha.

Little Mermaids

Ooo this is one of my favourite! Love the way she composed this photo. So random, yet interesting.

Minnie Pumpkin

This is quite a recent selfie and she's kinda learnt to lift the mobile higher so that she doesn't have the up-your-nostrils shot :P

Well done Lil Pumpkin! I hope you continue to explore and capture more of life's precious moments through your eyes & lenses. 

Do your kids love to take photos too? What catches their eyes?
