Christmas Photo Shoot!

A couple of weeks ago I decided to try my hand at a Christmas photo shoot. My little subject enjoyed getting dressed in her adorable Christmas dress and was quite curious about the fur. We ended up doing this two different days as the first one was hampered by an amature photographer and subject with a nose that insisted on running! The first pics were ok but the 2nd attempt was more successful. Here are some of our faves from our two photo shoot adventures!

Day I Day II Here's a video I took during our second shoot. You can see here why our floors have turned to foam! :o) She's like a Weeble but she does fall down. (Please ignore me in my pj's. It was a morning photo shoot but to be perfectly honest it could have been at 3:00 and some days I'm still in my pj's! Ahhhh...love mat leave!!)



Merry Christmas to all!!!

  11. Fun!! I had to laugh at the falling over -- I have trouble getting the girls to look or smile or whatever, but I never thought about adding falling over into the mix. I shouldn't laugh, but I had to giggle!

    xo, M
