Beautiful little Dorothy | Mission Newborn Photographer

I have been meaning to add this gorgeous little lady to my blog for WAY too long... I guess you can blame having the "minions" at home for the Summer holidays. Anyway, here she is, at last, and she was a true joy to photograph - a beautifully calm, sleepy princess...

Thought of the Day...

Yes, I am a material girl! ;-)

Are the Easiest Kids to Photograph Your Own? | Chilliwack Childrens Photographer

That is a question I have often pondered...after all, I do have daily access to 2 exceptionally cute models, so you'd think that I would have thousands of fantastic shots of them.

Yes, I do know how their brains work. Yes, I know the buttons (or bribes) to get some kind of result. Yes, they are comfortable around me. Yes, they are VERY comfortable around a camera. But NO, they are not the easiest kids I have photographed!! Yes... I said it. The truth is out. You see, I am still their Mum... and so I get the sighs, a lot of "do I HAVE to?"'s and various forms of fake smiles and weird over-posing. Eventually, I get the shot... but it usually involves a Twizzler or the promise of a sticker on the reward chart!

I finally managed to get them in a good place, and in a good mood, at the weekend... not enough of a good mood to get nicely-combed hair though. Oh well, that's how I will always remember them anyway!
