Best of Father’s Day – Part 2
Part 2 of 2 in our Best of Father’s Day blogs continues with a look at images we adore of dads and their kids and families. There’s just something about the scale of fathers and their children. I love it.
“I cannot think of any need in childhood as strong as the need for a father’s protection.” – Sigmund Freud
“Anyone who tells you fatherhood is the greatest thing that can happen to you, they are understating it.” – Mike Myers

“Every father should remember one day his son will follow his example, not his advice.” – Charles Kettering
“One father is more than a hundred schoolmasters.” –George Herbert
“Some dads liken the impending birth of a child to the beginning of a great journey.” –Marcus Jacob Goldman
Happy Father’s Day to all of the Dads out there. We love and appreciate all that you do, the big and the small, the tender and mighty, and how much we translate that into love for us.
We love family portraits whether they are set in the studio, the great outdoors, a specific location like the mountains or high country, or on our property in our outdoor portrait garden. Pixels on Paper photographs newborns and families, special events and portraits of all kinds in our Wilkesboro, NC studio. We would be honored to meet with you, learn about you and your family and be a part of taking special portraits that will become, we hope, family heirlooms.

Best of Father’s Day – Part 1
Let’s celebrate the guys we love. June means heat, summer vacations, family outings but also being stuck indoors or trying to get out responsibly after quarantine. I could not be more grateful for my own father and for my hubs, Ryan. We’ve taken so many wonderful images of dads over the years that it felt like time to do a two part blog showcasing some of our favorites.
“My father used to play with my brother and me in the yard. Mother would come out and say, “You’re tearing up the grass.”
“We’re not raising grass,” Dad would reply.
“We’re raising boys.” – Harmon Killebrew
“A truly rich man is one whose children run into his arms even when his hand’s are empty.” – Unknown
“By the time a man realizes that maybe his father was right, he usually has a son who thinks he’s wrong.” – Charles Wadsworth
“When you teach your son, you teach your son’s son.” – The Talmud
“He didn’t tell me how to live; he lived and let me watch him do it.” – Clarence Budington Kelland
Happy Father’s Day, Dads! Part 2 is to come. We love celebrating you!
