The Jensen Girls

I had another session with the Jensen family this past week. We set up to attempt to get some good family pictures and kid's pictures.  Becca needed her one year pictures done.  I can hardly believe she's a little over a year already. 

 As a photographer if you are up for a challenge, Little Miss Allie will give you one that's for sure.   I think I got her figured out.  Our time together involved a lot of challenging Allie to run around, stick her tongue out at me, make funny faces, giggle then freeze for a few clicks of the camera and do it all over again and again.  

If we start the session in a fairy dress and wings then so be it.


Becca  gets to swing too.


Next picture - Run around the chair 3 times then sit. Quick put Becca in the chair. Snap Snap Snap and she's off again....


Becca was not her normal giggle smile self this day.  Two days later she was put on antibiotics to help her feel better. We did manage to get a couple, but we will definately be doing a re-shoot to capture the real Becca.


How we managed a family picture-  Mom and Becca, sit in the chair... Allie run to the other end of the park and then back and stop and hug mom quick tickle Becca to get her attention. 
 Snap Snap Snap


That's how we do it!  

I figure by the time we do Allie's Senior Pictures in 12 years we'll have a system down.
 Until then I am up for the challenge! 

This is my all time favorite picture of Allie from all our sessions.  It's pictures like this that make all that work worth the while.
