My kids and I were in a wedding several months ago and I fell in love with their outfits, but being that I was a bridesmaid for the wedding, the camera got left in the bag that day and almost no shots were taken of my kids all dressed up. I wanted to do something cute and artsy with them, I just needed the right opportunity and two very wonderful assistants to help me finally get the pictures that “I’ve” always wanted of my kids. It’s hard when you’re a photographer to get images of your kids. I only have so many creative tricks I can pull out of my hat, and I’ve already used them all on these guys. This time it took me promising candy, ice cream, rides on the lawn mower, and doing a goofy dance. When it was all done I was so happy that I had taken the time to do this. I think that they are the most beautiful and precious little lives that exist, I may be biased, but you can’t deny that they are precious!
This was the reward for being good! He didn’t mind posing for me here at all!
This is what they did when I pulled out the camera the first time……
….and this is where they realized “if we just suck it up and give her a smile she’s gonna stop and give us candy”. (yeah…they were totally done at this point!) :-)
