Photo Shoot with Mommy

The boys are out of town this weekend. I decided to get G dressed up and try my hand at taking her four year old pictures. I got some good ones. I am not sure if I am going to skip the professional though.

Love this one!

probably my favorite of the morning. We had a good time chasing one another around the arboretum. This experience makes me want a better lens even more!

Sunday Morning

Since we all looked nice for church and had a few minutes to spare why not take a group picture. Take one needed a little work.

We got one.

I took this shot of G and it was not quite right, so I messed with it a bit.

Cool right?

So I read an article about photographing your kids an it said to engage them in a silly activity and then start snapping. I was pretty happy with these results. I will definitely be trying this tactic again.

We had our good friend Julie and her family over for a birthday lunch today. Everyone was all smiles!
