Default Lucky they're so darn cute cuz they were near impossible to shoot!

Did a family shoot last weekend, and these two little angelic-LOOKING girls wanted nothing to do with my camera. They liked me fine and wanted me to play Barbies with them, but as soon as I picked up the camera, they disappeared! Here are a couple I managed to get. I wanted to give them sort of a vintage plus high-key effect.

As always, thanks for taking a peek!

Hi Susan, I really like the 2nd one best in this set, both are well done though, I don't think I'd do well with photographing children. I don't have that kind of Patience.
Thanks for sharing these
Michael.

Oh, are they ever cuties. Beautiful photos, Susan, and I hope you had fun playing Barbies. Maybe they need a "photographer Barbie" if there is such a thing! I love the softness.....

Yep, Susan, they are darn cute. Good thing you have a quick shutter finger or you might not have gotten what you did. good job!
