Default Ready For More?

Good Morning my DPS Family... here's more from the same day that I posted yesterday. Thank you all for your kind and encouraging words... it really made my day.

Here's the Star of the show "Paisley" again.
She was watching my son attempt to blow up his balloon... you can see his reflection in her sunglasses.
What-Cha-Doin-Connor?

Here's Paisley's sister Zoe... she was having a hair problem that day... it kept blowing in her face
Zoe

Look what I got

And last but not least for the day... My silly faced son. Can't get a smile out of him... I just get these goofy faces. It's okay though... I love seeing his dimples
Funny Face

Thanks again for looking

They're all wonderful, Nikki, but I think my favorite is Zoe's windblown look. What adorable kids -- I bet they have so much fun together!

It must be a boy thing - the silly faces. Thomas is always hamming it up for the camera, and it drives me crazy! Those are all beautiful portraits of your children. Isn't it wonderful, capturing all those moments?

Very good light balance in sunlight Nikki, ( not as easy as it looks) and I always like kid shots that are warm and natural, the second and third are good examples of the rule of 3rds ( which I break all the time lol

They are beautiful Kids, and you did an excellent job of capturing thier personalities

Hi Martha... I think you're right...it must be a boy thing because my daughter wasn't like that. It drives me crazy too cause I just want one good smiling picture of my son. I'll be attempting a 365 project with my son as the main subject starting january 1st... hopefully I can get one good one in there. LOL My neices are so wonderful to photograph... I miss when my daughter was that small... she just turned 11 yesterday.

Hi Vin... thank you so much for your kind comments. I try not to break that rule... but it's hard sometimes I'm glad you enjoyed these. Take Care.
