One of the added bonuses of taking pictures of kids is that we get to incorporate another love and have some in-depth conversations with children about a common love- candy. For instance, what's your favourite type of candy? What's your favourite colour lollipop? (And the always popular-if you make it through these pictures alive, you can have some candy- in this case lollipops!...)
Of course the other option for the occasional “I am never going to smile for that camera because that would be cruel and unusual torture” type of kids is to nicely ask the Mom to either jump wildly up and down and wave their arms behind us or make goofy faces that only the kids can see (at least that’s what the mom thinks!) How we would love to capture the mom’s behind the scenes as they pull their crazy faces for the kids... We’ll put that on our list of must-take pictures- watch out moms!
Needless to say these two boys were such troopers...despite a face plant in the train track rocks these two kept on smiling! (P.S. they're going to be heart-throbs one day! Look at those beautiful eyes!!) They were such a delight to photograph and we really enjoyed the shoot! Check out the results, and feel free to comment!
