Magical photos of your baby smiling for the first time are a priceless treasure for many a proud parent. But when you delve into Dad Emil Nystrom, 25, family’s album you might be surprised. For inside you will not find your usual precious baby portraits, but amusing photos of his daughter doing anything from fixing a car to painting and decorating. The photographer and media producer has come up with a rather unconventional way to get a smile from his one year old daughter, Signhild’s, face. He created a range of everyday scenarios that are commonplace for adults and photographed his daughter in them, with the help of some clever photography. The unrealistic images make for a humorous and rather unusual family photo album, as Signhild’s is snapped in day-to-day situations at their home in Sweden
