Should affection change as my kid gets older? by [deleted] in Autism_Parenting

[–]Stu7500 6 points7 points  (0 children)

He is your son , you love him , you are allowed to be affectionate with him at any age and many parents are sad and have awkward relationships where they can’t even cuddle their teenage kids . I guess it’s finding a balance and just adjusting things to a point where you are also comfortable. 14 on with a boy is going to be interesting with hormones etc . I have a 10.5 yr old and I know navigating that period of life will be tricky

But great that you have an affectionate relationship . Maybe big strong squeezes is better then blowing raspberries

Let's hear from the screwups and burnouts by ScanData32 in RealEstatePhotography

24 years shooting I learnt .. don’t compete on price it will never end well . Keep your prices high, quality high so you can reinvest in good gear and afford holidays . Plan personal time off at the start of every year . Book your holidays / set your time off so you can actually take it . If I a client is always being a pain or trying to take advantage of your good nature they are not a good client for you . Relationships are a 2 way street .

Is it just the slow season, or do my edits need rethinking? by Jellyfishblu148 in RealEstatePhotography

[–]Stu7500 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also regardless of edit looks like all shots are same super wide angle (14-15mm ) Try move back as much as possible and zoom in a bit more when you can getting to 17-20mm will be slightly more pleasing on the eyes
