These days if my kids even get a hint of me looking to take pictures of them they all seem to instantly vanish. We’re often left with begging or forcing cooperation, which makes the entire ordeal anything but fun - not to mention the often less than desirable results.
Last night however was a different story. We’ve been wanting to get pictures of Ciera ever since her 3rd birthday in late March, and when we asked her if she wanted to get dressed up for pictures, she excitedly agreed. I was shocked! And we had a great time till I wore her out.
Now most of the time I just post the best few of the batch. Tonight I took a sample of the entire photo shoot so you could experience the session a bit as well. Most of these are raw and untouched beyond a crop here and there.

Feel free to vote on your favorites! Eventually I’ll tweak a few of the best and get them printed.
Enjoy! (click picture above for slideshow)
