I always interview my clients to get a sense of what they are looking for in a photography session and to learn more about the kids and their personalities. One of my standard questions is: “do the siblings get along?”
Well, the short answer to this question was “no.”
As we talked, I learned that there were some things the girls liked to do together, and I was determined to get those girls getting along and being happy for our session. When we first started our session, I could see what the mom was talking about as the girls fought over some props I had brought to the session. But soon the sibling rivalry that I saw rearing it’s ugly head disappeared to the sounds of happy peals of laughter. Ahhhh…. success!
This picture just might be my most favorite picture of the session. I love her squooshed little nose and happy laugh. I can almost hear it.
And here’s another favorite.
Gosh, so many favorites….
Thank you so much M family! I loved our session! If you can get 35 of your friends or family to comment on this blog post with their email (only viewable by me), you’ll get a free 5×7. If you can get 50, you get an 8×10.
