In my opinion, taking pictures of my own kids is much harder than taking pictures of someone else’s kids.  Not sure exactly why, but I just find it harder. Remember the cute pictures I took of Kennedy and posted on her Birthday? Well, I loved them, but they did not come easy! She is currently going through the ‘fake smile at the camera stage’ and I had to work extra hard just to get a real smile… Add in the chasing her around, talking, silly faces (which I do love, by the way!) and the negotiation on what shoes to wear (she wanted flip flops and I wanted ‘winter’ shoes, I won but then when our neighbor came over she took the chance to run in and change!) anyway, it was a challenge just to get some good pictures.
Check out the fake smiles:

that picture above, to the left, she was trying to tell me how she was going to pose, and her legs had to be just right   If you want to see some of the ‘good’ shots from this shoot you can check ‘em out HERE.

I hope you have all had a fabulous Monday…since it is almost over now
