Kiddos for Springtime

Hi Everyone,


Sorry it has been a little while since I have been on last. With my own wedding rapidly approaching, and spring weather here, I have been non-stop but enjoyed every minute of it. :) 


Recently I had the pleasure of photographing for one of my all time favorite families. They have two kids, a boy and a girl, ages 4 and 2. They are a total blast to work with and a lot of fun. For their Easter photos, they also invited their four cousins to come join in on the fun. While this group was really good to work with, sometimes kids can be challenging.  If one doesn't want to cooperate or if the other just wants all the attention on them, it makes it difficult. Photographing kids is definitely a delicate balance. As a photographer you have to be able to not only position the kids so it looks good but keep them entertained long enough to rapid fire the photographs and catch one or two while they're still. Also, I have found that a lot of times if you tell the kids to do something, they don't want to do it. But, if you can find a way to get them to think that the certain pose was their idea...then you've got it! 


I really do love photographing families and kids. They are truly special and keep my photoshoots interesting. Here are some photos I thought I'd share from the shoot.
