Smiling is not necessary

Kids are funny. When they see a camera they automatically go into cheesy smiling mode! As a photographer I like capturing people in all forms but sometimes find it difficult with kids. My particular kid cannot….I REPEAT….cannot sit still!! This poses another challenge! Yes, I’m guilty of bribing her with candy just as any good parent with a camera does. 🙂 And you know what? It works!! 9 times out of 10 she will sit still for a good 3 minutes and take direction…. and this is enough for me to get what I need. And on this particular day my baby delivered!
