I totally feel your predicament. Although my husband is very patient and supportive, I also feel somewhat guilty for taking too much time. What we do is we compromise. When we're in a park, he jogs while I shoot. When at the beach, he goes for long walks (which he loves) while I shoot. When at a fair or event, he goes around with our daughter while I shoot. And both my hubby and daughter make wonderful subjects. It's working quite well so far.

I also gave my daughter my old point and shoot, so now she's as shutter happy as I am. Also, I've been encouraging my husband to get more involved. He has a good eye and is only too happy to point things out to me that are worth shooting. There are times when he would borrow my camera to try his hand. I just fix the settings and then he shoots away. I think it's only a matter of time before he goes out and buys his own gear!
