portrait problems


We went to get her two year portraits taken today. Oh my....making a two year old sit still and smile on cue isn't an easy task. Daddy took the day off work and went with me, which helped a lot, but she was not very interested at all in smiling for the camera. She would've much rather spent her time playing (which is what she did with every single prop the photographer tried to use to get her to smile). It was quite a challenge, and I'm sure the photographer wasn't very happy with us, since after all of the time and frustration spent to get our little one to smile, we only bought the special $9.95 package!


There were some cute ones and we had trouble deciding, but this one was the best picture overall...even though her hair is messed up. The smile was the most genuine and looked the most like our girl.


I don't think we'll do pictures again until she's three. Maybe she will have matured a bit by then.

    I totally know what you mean! I think that picture was worth all your efforts. It's really cute and does show her real personality! Kaden would love a wallet if you have extras! :o)

  2. Happy Birthday to R!! What a cutie and a big girl! (Is seems strange to me that they are already at half their height at age 2? they seem so short!)

    This is a cute picture. I was just thinking about how I will take Katy next month when she is 2 and get David's also - he'll be 2 months. Now you've reminded me that I better be ready for a battle - that will not be an easy picture to get...
