    A natural

    This girl is a natural in front of the camera! She loves her picture taken and maybe I'm biased, but shes a great subject!! Shes five btw. My oldest daughter. My second daughter, doesn't like the camera so much lol



    I was trying to get a good picture of the two of them together.. but the little one was none too happy about being touched by her big sister and being made to sit still for 2 seconds.





















    All I hear when I've got the camera: "Take a picture of me like this Mommy." LOL Do you think the girl likes the camera? More than half of these are because she wanted it! lol

    Thanks for looking!

    Looks like she's got the modeling part down. I wish I was nearer my granddaughter.

    Thanks Frog We lived out in Wa state for a while. It really grows on you cause I miss it lol. I was over in Port Orchard. My husband was stationed at Bremerton. Both my girls were born at the naval hospital. I can still remember the view.. about 10 eagles sitting down in the low tide with crows dive bombing them. Was awesome to watch.

    Nice shots Amber. Mine used to like being shot, now she'll only work it if she is involved in the planning and then gets a payback pose or two out of me that she gets to direct and shoot. We have her dance recital shots coming up, I hope she has the tutu idea out of her head. Have you thought about a reflector that one of the little ones could hold, or trying some fill flash while under cover?

    Re: A natural

    These are just wonderful Amber. I sure agree that she is a cutie. I know how hard it is to get a two year old to stay still enough to get a good posed picture with others. My oldest grandson is two and not one to co-operate when it comes to posing. You have to catch him on the run. MJS had a couple of excellent suggestions for improvement on some already beautiful images. That little lady is a real treasure so give some of his techniques and suggestion a try with her.
    Don't forget about the Gallery. Are your photos there??

    I remember when mine were that young, I don't think they were ever that little. Beautiful shots.

    Haha, restaurants is the main thing I miss about California....I spent 4 years in Petaluma and Port Orchard doesnt even come close (California had great Mexican, Vietnamese, Chinese, Indian, Thai...but around here, we have good coffee and Japanese food...is Puerto Vallarta the one by Wal Mart and Staples or the one by Radio Shack and Saars Market?

    WALMART! I didn't like the El Sombrero over by radio shack. So that old Kmart is a Saars Market now huh. There was nothing there when I left lol and no plans yet. I have heard that P. Orchard has changed a LOT since I left, and I've only been gone a yr and a half lol.
