Let it Be

If there is one blanket statement I can make about taking photos of children, it is this:

They keep you on your toes.

(Actually, scratch the "taking photos" part... adding little ones to any situation makes it more interesting.)

For some photographers, adding the kiddo variable is something they'd rather not do. The posed family photo is, after all, nearly IMPOSSIBLE with an uncooperative tyke. But even in my four years of experience with my own little ones, I have picked up a number of tricks. Chief among them:

Go with it.



If Abby wants to play over in the beach grass, go for it!




If Lily would rather hang back with daddy, great!




And if Kyla isn't really feeling pictures tonight...



Let it be.



She'll come around.






Thanks for the opportunity to play with your little ladies! Your proofs are almost ready!
