Post #2

How about that! My second post today. This family is a friend of mine. Our little girls play together and go to preschool together. The first time I saw this little girl, I knew she would photograph so well and I was right. She's such a beautiful little girl. We had a little wrestling with the boys, many goofy faces and starting over the posing and such, but it was fun and I think we got a good shot of everyone. Here are some of my favorites from this session.

All dressed up and nowhere to go

You might recognize this baby from here. He's 5 months now and still as cute as can be! We had to work really hard for any smiles. About 20 minutes into the session he needed to eat and then we got a few more smiles, but he was too interested in the things around him and not much for workin' the camera. Still, being as cute as he is, a smile wasn't always necessary. Here are a few of my faves.

Love these!

Well it's been like 2 months since I shot these. My cousin and her hubby came up 'cause he was doing LOTOJA. Crazy if you ask me! But anyway, so we took a little bit of time the night before and got some great shots. I had them all ready to post but was trying to decide about changing my name or not. Since I still haven't decided, I thought I'd post them on this dreary wet day to remind me of this beautiful warm sunny day!

Fam of Four

I had a fun time photographing this family yesterday. The Mom is a new friend of mine and our little 2 year olds play so well together. Our babies, not so well! I think it must be a love hate relationship. Someday......
So we tried out a few spots yesterday and here are a couple of my faves. Aren't they a cute family?!

Little Stinker!

I finally got Isabelle's hair in pig tails and so wanted a picture of it, but she has turned into an anti-picture taker. And way too early if I might add! This was what I was dealing with most of the time.

Occassionally I got a glance in my general direction, but still, not giving me much to work with.

So I thought, okay, it won't be a solo shot, I'll have to get in there with her to get a picture. Well.... I forgot to put the remote down. So although  a decent picture, minor distraction.

So we tried again and cropped in closer. Not always a fun experience with my own kids, but at least we're getting some pictures of them!
