It is hard to get a ‘real’ smile out of her these days. When I point the camera at her I get this totally fake smile, and she can’t seem to help it. Then, when I say “Hey Kennedy, don’t fake it!” She’s all “Mom! I am not! That is my best smile!”
Sigh.
So, the other day when we sat down on the couch while she told me all about her dreams she’d had the night before, I knew I could get some ‘real’ shots of her. So I grabbed my camera and took a couple while she talked….

I am happy to capture her happy – real – smile. But I love this un-smiling shot too
