When My 3-Year-Old Takes Control of the Camera

May 07, 2014


The Little Boy has always shown an interest in my DSLR camera. Yesterday he decided to pull out the tripod and requested that I set the camera up so that he could take some photographs -- "It's my job to use the camera." he told me, which is often what I say to him when I'm taking photos and don't want him to bother the camera. He carted the tripod around the house and took various photographs, often telling me what he'd like to take a photo of or how he'd like my husband and I to pose. It was a lot of fun to see his interest in photography grow, and maybe one day he'll own an SLR of his own. The following are a few of my favourites from the 60-some photographs that he shot with a Nikon D40 DSLR and a 50mm lens:
