April 30, 2016 at 2:48 pmI’m in love with those sunglasses too. We used Flytographer to take pictures of the family in London, and used the pictures in our holiday card.

April 30, 2016 at 1:55 amGorgeous gift ideas. Out of my price range unfortunately but I’m especially loving the Louis vuitton bag.
Carmen Edelson
April 30, 2016 at 2:52 pmIt was hard for me to pick just a few items with so many great options. I tried to pick a few items that were affordable to most. I know the LV bag is spectacular.

April 30, 2016 at 4:20 amOooh, I want the Flytographer…doesn’t everyone need one of those? I would love to be followed around, no camera, just having fun with my kids and getting it captured! Such an awesome idea!
Carmen Edelson
April 30, 2016 at 2:56 pmOur kids really enjoyed the photoshoot, especially because our photographer went out of his way to make it fun for them. He took lots of pictures of us get walking around, and some great ones of the kids laughing. Definitely worth it!

May 1, 2016 at 8:02 pmWe had so much fun walking around London having our pictures taken everywhere. People were looking at us wondering who we were. I will certainly use them again in future trips.

Carmen Edelson
May 1, 2016 at 8:04 pmI spend most of the time taking pictures of everyone else and the sights. When I look back I come out in a few pictures. Using Flytographer they were able to capture great pictures of the whole family.

May 2, 2016 at 3:25 pmgreat ideas, though way out of my price range. Had no idea you can hire a professional photographer for when you travel. It is interesting, though a bit of an unnecessary splurge for me.
Carmen Edelson
May 3, 2016 at 12:15 pmA lot of couples are using Flytographer now for engagement photo shoots too. We have spend upwards of $500 for family portraits in the past. Our kids hate the ordeal of having to get all dressed up and going to a studio. This was a fun solution and they really enjoyed it.

May 2, 2016 at 4:01 pmI am sure my wife would love any of these gifts instead she will have to settle for a new American tourist suitcase
Carmen Edelson
May 3, 2016 at 10:15 amIf she loves to travel as much as I do, I’m much a suitcase would be a wonderful gift for her.

May 2, 2016 at 5:17 pmI’ve heard so many great things about Flytographer. That would be a great choice for my mom or me for that matter! Nothing like capturing memories when you travel.
Carmen Edelson
May 3, 2016 at 12:19 pmI’m sure your mom and you would cherish the moments captured by Flytographer for years to come.

May 2, 2016 at 5:54 pmIt’s difficult to find just the right gift for mom and even though most of these are out of my price range, they’re fun to review. Thanks for the ideas and sharing.
Carmen Edelson
May 3, 2016 at 12:21 pmMy mother is hard to shop for too. Although, she likes perfumes, I find it hard to pick one that she would like.

May 3, 2016 at 5:42 amI think England must be the only country that doesn’t have Mother’s Day in May. It’s in March, if I recall correctly! Shows how much of a good son I am!
Carmen Edelson
May 7, 2016 at 9:25 amThat’s interesting, I never knew that Mother’s Day was celebrated in March in England.

May 6, 2016 at 4:48 pmThis is a great selection, Carmen – all very useful gifts that would suit most Moms. We’ve tried Flytographer in Rome and had such fun. I remember seeing your Flytographer London shots, they did a fantastic job!
Carmen Edelson
May 7, 2016 at 1:57 pmThe Flytographer is very fun to do with a family or a group of friends in just about any location! They did a great job in our trip to London!
